#1 I've been to Europe, while this seems to be taken as humor, the truth is that the ancient streets were built before the automobile was invented and were designed for foot traffic or only one donkey and )Narrow) cart wide, only very small cars can even get into these streets and there's no such thing as passing or two way traffic.

Cops had no choice but to follow.

#2 After a bit of thought, they could have gotten away by just dumping something too heavy for the cops to lift off the back of the cart.

A log, or a big concrete block would do it, the cops would have to back down the narrow alley, and go around.

Not too many years ago a bunch of bank robbers in a stolen car got away by pulling into an Apartment complex parking lot, stepping through a hedge and over a small culvert, and driving away in another car they had stashed (Parked) in the next apartment complex parking lot.

The cops had to go about three miles to get to the other apartment complex entrance, and the crooks were long gone.
