Honest question, how do you think it should be handled? If my car is stolen I wouldn't want the cops to just stand next to me and watch it leave.
I fail to see how stolen and totaled in a police chase is in any way better than just stolen.
Honest answer, I'm not sure.
File an insurance claim, I guess. Trigger your on-board GPS. Install an anti-theft device. Each of the several people I've known who had their cars stolen got 'em back, operable and not totaled, so almost any strategy seems an improvement over a police chase.
