Good call, again. Where did you find it??

I'll agree that it would've been nice to see some cars roll to a stop, but I don't think it was necessary (and probably would've thrown off the scene's timing).

I think the scene needed a bit more padding, personally. Even just a handful of seconds.
There are a ton of elements of the film that needed more time though. This is one of the less important ones, but I figured it was worth analyzing for the sake of understanding.

Well, there we go. Issue resolved. Needed a bit more visual communication, but you can't argue with the script.

Janitor. lol
This is the bike the rifle was fired at. It didn't spark and die as the script says.
It drove off for a considerable amount of distance, and then the camera cuts to Batman's rifle being shot by the cop for a few seconds.
Next time we see him, the cops have apparently stopped him.
I don't remember seeing a second bike spark and die during this bit, either. Must have been cut.
