Being in your POV with your family, and the two persons in the vehicle following you were the same two you helped arrest and escort them to the county jail.
You turn this way and that and they are still in your rear view mirror. It helps to know the streets in your jurisdiction!
Your wife finally asks why did we pass our home and you tell her you are being followed. She is now scared and you are more frightened because she and your four children could be in peril.
You signal to a passing county mountie and they stop the other vehicle.
You, quite shaken, take your family home and then go to the station and file a report.
Their bond is revoked and you have learned a valuable lesson. You relied on your training and those things taught to you by people who are a whole lot smarter than you.
Enjoy the day,

No firearms but several baseball bats. I hated to carry an off-duty sidearm, that changed after that.
Another element to add to the mix, how would you keep your family out of harm's way should you, as a last restort, employ hour sidearm. I can see using an empty automobile as a barrier but not one with innocent occupants.
All of this was in the pre-cell phone era.
Enjoy the day,

I can't think of anything else you could have done. I know that you would never let them pull along side of your vehicle because they could of had firearms. The priority is always protecting human life, especially loved ones. That is exactly what you did.Originally posted by Bill Warnock If it happened to you today, even with a firearm for protection, engaging the perpetrators is something that you must not do for reasons alluded to by you above. Better to keep moving until help is available, even if you have to use your vehicle to ram them out of your way.

I was doing an internal of a business around 0200 because I found a door unlocked and I walked in an unlocked office and found the owner of the business having...relations...with a definite prostitute.
It was not a pretty sight.
That's not the scariest moment, but it's a recent one and that image will be burned into my mind for awhile. Naaaaasty!10-8Comment

My scariest moment was when some stuff went down on a shift and my boss told me I was looking at time in a Federal Prison and the FBI, USCG, NCIS and some other services were investigating my actions...
Of course this apparently was before they checked with any law enforcement agency.
Got a call the next day "...Hey, we called the Police, there is no investigation."
thanks asshats.
