Cop Car Chase, Steel roller coaster in Movie Park Germany, Bottrop, Germany
Cop Car Chase is a steel roller coaster in Movie Park Germany in Bottrop that winds through the park with strong curves and numerous inversions. The ride lasts about one and a half minutes and reaches high speeds while passing through multiple sections.
The roller coaster opened in 1996 under the name Lethal Weapon Pursuit and was renamed to its current name after the park was acquired by Star Parks in 2005. This renaming shows the changing direction of the park toward new branding.
The ride uses police themes in its design, with trains styled as law enforcement vehicles and street scenery in the queue area. These elements create a story around the journey that immerses visitors in a chase scenario.
The ride has multiple entrances and exits that make boarding and leaving easy, and there are height requirements to ensure the safety of all riders. Visitors should wear loose clothing and secure personal items, as the ride is intense.
The ride uses vertical magnetic brakes instead of conventional horizontal systems, setting it apart from similar attractions of its time. This braking system allows for more precise control during the journey.
