Hi, there
I was told I should only use “run away from” when you are trying to escape something on foot. In this case, what verb could I use to mean someone is trying to escape someone else in a car, eg, in a police chase?
Would it sound odd to say “running away from” in the example below?
“You know that car that just sped by us one minute ago. IT ( OR he/she??) was running away from the police”
Thank you
