How to run away from the Police in Schedule 1

Besides searches, cops will immediately chase you if they catch you making a deal, pickpocketing, or breaking curfew. Also, be careful when riding a skateboard as it makes enough noise to attract their attention.

Here are the few ways you can run away from the police in Schedule 1:

• Break their line of sight – The best way to shake the cops is to get out of their view. As soon as they lose sight of you, a status bar at the top of the screen will start fading. Once it’s gone, you’re in the clear.
• Run into your safe house – If you own a house, make a break for it. Cops won’t follow you inside, making it an easy way to reset your wanted level.
• Use the environment to your advantage – Certain areas give you an edge when escaping. The parking lot, for example, is great because you can make cops chase you up a ramp and then jump off, something they can’t do.

• Fight back (If you have no choice) – If you're cornered, you can fight your way out, but be warned: if your status escalates from "under arrest" to "wanted," officers will use tasers. If it goes up to "wanted dead or alive," they’ll bring out firearms.

• Stay away from high-risk areas – Some places are crawling with cops. If you’re carrying anything illegal, avoid the western bridge and heavily patrolled spots.
• Use distractions – Causing chaos or blending into a crowd can help throw off the cops. If you can divert their attention, you might get the time you need to escape.
• Hop in a vehicle – If you have access to a fast ride, use it. But be careful, if your wanted level is high, patrol cars will chase you aggressively.

Dodging the police in Schedule 1 is all about quick thinking and knowing when to run, hide, or fight. Whether you’re ducking into a safe house, pulling off a slick getaway, or just keeping a low profile, staying ahead of the law is just part of the game.
