You don't really appreciate how fast panic can set in until you're gripping a controller and hearing sirens stack up behind you. I rolled out in my HSW-built supercar, the kind you only bother upgrading once you've got your money right, and I'd been thinking about GTA 5 Money the whole time because every scrape and repair bill adds up. The car was nasty on the straights, near 200 mph when the road opened, but speed alone doesn't win a chase in Los Santos. Not when the "police" are actual players and they're smart enough to stop playing fair.



When speed stops being the answer
At first I tried the obvious thing: point the nose downtown and send it. You very quickly find out that straight lines are a trap. Player cops don't just follow, they cut you off. They'll sit on corners, force you into traffic, make you choose between a head-on crash and a sudden turn that kills your momentum. I started slicing through alleys, taking ugly angles, letting buildings block sight for half a second. Half a second matters. One clipped bin, one little curb hop, and you're dead in the water while the lights swallow you up.



Improvised cover and ugly decisions
I got desperate and started using whatever was moving as cover. A delivery truck, a city bus, even a random SUV that didn't deserve any of this. You tuck in behind it, then pop out at the last moment, hoping the guy behind you overcommits. Sometimes it works. Sometimes the traffic does that GTA thing where it swerves for no reason and you're suddenly sideways, watching your rear end swing into a lamppost. I kept telling myself to breathe, keep it clean, don't get greedy. Then a Toreador showed up in my mirror and that little pep talk went straight out the window.



Boosts, blocks, and the run to the pier
The Toreador changed the whole vibe. Boost means it can close gaps that should be safe. The cops started doing coordinated pushes, nudging me toward the coast where they'd already set up crude roadblocks. I had to go off-road more than I wanted, crashing through fences and shredding the car's bodywork just to keep rolling. My plan was simple: make it to Del Perro Pier, meet my buddy, get lifted out by Cargobob, laugh about it later. The pier, though, is pure pressure. Narrow boards, posts everywhere, pedestrians stepping into your line like they're paid actors.



No pickup, no mercy
I threaded it anyway, easing off the throttle in spots I really didn't want to, just to avoid getting boxed in. I hit the end of the pier and looked up, waiting for that helicopter shadow. Nothing. Empty sky. Radio silence. Behind me, cruisers were fanning out, like they'd practiced it. For a second I thought about trying to reverse and juke them, but there was nowhere to go, not with that many cars and boosts ready to pounce. So I did the dumb, honest thing and drove straight off the edge, hoping the splash would at least deny them the arrest, and even in that moment I was thinking how this is Los Santos: if you want to keep rebuilding after runs like this, RSVSR GTA 5 Money ends up on your mind way more than you'd admit.
