Trying to remember which movie or tv show had a car chase with a cop car (or possibly a taxi) going backwards in a parking structure???
It's killing me and I don't know where else to turn!

One of the Bourne movies, I think.
^ he backs off the roof of a parking structure in an Audi, I think it's a crown Vic chasing though
umm... every hour long tv show in the 70's and early 80's?
any further detail? so many could be named
Transporter 2?
Bourne Ultimatum he steels an Audi and backs it off the roof, then steals an Impala cop car for one of the most brutal chases ever.
Funny enough, I worked on ultimatum. It was my first big car show and the real beginning of my career.
But alas, not what I was thinking.
Let me provide more detail...
The crown vic is being chased, i believe, by a black suv. i seem to remember shots where they are side by side with columns dividing them.
Most vivid is picturing the cv driving backwards with the SUV nose-nose chasing.
There is a part where the cop car, is blocked and jumps from one level to another. It's not a huge jump, more like he cuts the corner.
I'm not even sure it's a movie - might be a tv show. But it isn't that old. I'd guess within the last 10 years
I know it's not much to go off of but I'm trying to gather some reference stuff for the show I'm on and this would be super valuable!
Did Inception have a car chase?
Sounds like GRM could help influence the next TV show!
Reminds me of a coworker who wanted to be a screenwriter, describing his idea for a new action movie, "... it'll have a lot of shooting, explosions, and crashes." I walked away thinking, "try to aspire to something higher..."
Roger Rabbit, 5th Element...I don't know, just fun chase scenes!
Bruce
I have decided it was either a tv show/commercial/etc (and not a movie) or I just dreamed it.
Ive asked about 40 people so far and the closest thing ive got is "it sounds familiar..." I don't know who else to ask! Argh
And yes.... Grm could have influence. :). If anyone has any ideas for something to see on film (car-wise), let me know! Always trying to come up with new/different stuff.
Couldnt have been that E36 M3ty queen latifah taxi movie, could it?
I just watched Taken 3 and they back a Ford Cruiser (P71) into what looks like an elevator shaft
Striking distance. Filmed in Pittsburgh. Bruce Willis.
If there are any reverse 180s (moonshiner's turns, or whatever else you want to call them) just make sure the car doesn't stop before going forward. Every time I see that maneuver and the car stops, I think, "Keep your damn foot off the brake!"
^^^ This maneuver is known as The Rockford in some circles. Rightly so.
In reply to NickD:
I remember seeing that in theaters slack jawed. So good.
If nothing else, this thread has generated a decent movie queue. 
Wow, I have seen a lot but somehow missed striking distance.
That is a really good chase!
Unfortunately, not it, but worth the watch!
I've been fortunate enough to work on some cool ones including Drive, John Wick, Hit and Run, and The Last Stand.
Just shot John Wick 2 which has some cool car stuff.
Still trying to figure out this elusive sequence. I have a feeling it was tv since movies are easier to search and I haven't come up with it yet.
Sounds like the chase scene from RED, the scene where Karl Urban catches up with Bruce Willis in NOLA. Used to have it on DVD, can't find it now (story of my life, can't find stuff I have when I need it)
