How Do I Outrun the Cops in Need for Speed Unbound? Answered

Speed is your best friend when it comes to outrunning the cops, but you need to remain in control to avoid damaging your car and getting trapped. If you trash your car, you won’t be fast anymore and could be busted. The best plan is to find a straight stretch of road and use your nitro boost to leave the cops in the dust.

Trying to make sudden turns to confuse your pursuit slows you down, so use this strategy sparingly because it can help. When the police try to run you off the road, brake suddenly and let them pass in front of you.

When you return to the garage at the end of the day, your heat resets and the police won’t remember the previous chases. When you get enough money and complete challenges, you’ll have access to even faster rides and escaping becomes easier.
