Identify an American TV Show Car Chase - Aired in early 2000's [closed]

The American TV show was staged. It was almost like a game-show in which they drove to an isolated or abandoned town, and a "criminal" would be selected. The criminal could select to be in any type of car they wanted. There were be 3 or 4 cops in patrol units on the show, driving around the abandoned town. The cops would be alerted a description of the criminal car, and have to stop the vehicle before it left the perimeter of the town. If the criminal got past the perimeter, he won a prize. If the cops worked together and stopped the criminal before he reached the perimeter, they won a prize.

I remember one episode vividly in which a criminal selected to be in a large box truck, and had 2 or 3 marked units chasing him. While 3 patrol units were chasing the box truck, the back of the box truck opened up, and he drove out of it going the other direction in a convertible and made it past the perimeter. I would really like to watch this tv show again. Any ideas? I think I am leaning towards it being aired in the early 2000's. Thanks!

If you're looking for an American show, there's UPN's gameshow(?) Getaway from the early 2000s. There isn't lot of info about this one either, but from a report:

From Paul Stojanovich, the executive producer of 'Worlds Wildest Police Videos', 'Getaway' aims to bring the dramatic car-chase scenes back to TV by taking four of the boys in blue and put them to the test, attempting to capture cars stunt and racing-car drivers.

Here's a clip from the show similar to the one you're describing, where one of the competitors drives a tow-truck and then fools the cops by driving away in the towed car (and it all looks fake as hell):
