can't seem to make a traffic stop in PQ1 VGA

[Cras]

After having such great success with the patches here for the Space Quest Collection, I got my hands on the Police Quest Collection (I-VGA through IV), that I got excited to again return to the day when games were more than just shooting people over XBOX live.

I played these games a lot as a youngster, and I was surprised how much I remember. One thing I rember is the crazy lady speeder in the red car. After I get past the break at Carol's diner, I got back on patrol, and there she is, crazy speeder in the red car, so I turn to follow her, turn on the siren and punch it to chase her down, yet I never do. I just drive down the road until it ends, I pick a direction to turn, turn again to go back the other direction, and fly down the road, and I never catch up to the speeder. Eventually after running around town with my siren on, I get a call to go to Carol's to deal with the bikes parked infront of her place.

I deal with that, and then the DUI car shows up. I remember this guy as well, having to haul him to jail. But same deal. I turn on the sirens, chase after him, but reach the end of the road and alas, never seem to catch the guy. I run around town until I get a call from dispatch that I am on break (or at least I assume that is what it mean, it was more police code).

I am running it on the newest version of DOSBox in Windows 7 x64, using the package I downloaded from this great website. Is this a known issue? Another one of those dreaded timer bugs that always plague me trying to replay my old Sierra games before DOSBox that somehow has still survived?

There may be something that you have not done, yet. If someone who remembers the game more than I sees this, they might have am idea what you might have missed. If it is a bug, try lowering your cycles down to about 7000 - 8000.
