California police officers received a surprise confrontation after the driver who led them on a police chase got out of his car and began to dance.

The slow pursuit began on Highway 101 near Calabasas on Tuesday after the reckless driver failed to yield to commands to stop by California Highway Patrol officers, ABC Los Angeles station KABC reported.
