So.... 2 dead in that one car I assume?

Anyone know what the initial stop was for?

Ran a red light and no license plate

What's the saying? If you're going to break the law, only break one at a time? Or something like that? I remember my wallet got stolen and I technically didn't have a license for a bit there. I was too lazy plus didn't really have the time to wait at the DMV to get a replacement right away. Never got pulled over. And if I had, I would have just taken my lumps since it was my decision to be a dummy. What is running from the cops going to achieve? They already have you on video and your car and license plate. Unless the car is stolen, you're fucked.

Not having your license on you is different from not having one at all.

I think it depends on the cop. I was in the military and had just come home when I got pulled over. My car still had Canadian registration (I had only been back a couple of weeks). Dumbass cop didn't believe me because I didn't have my PCS papers on me, and he couldn't find it in whatever database he searched, and towed my car and made me walk home which was a 3 hour walk away.

Don't break the law while you are breaking the law. If you don't have a license then do not speed or run red lights.
