With Fox's help. The Bat wasn't flying all that fast as it went into the horizon, police helicopter could do the same.There's cars all about and that transport truck that had the bomb wasn't going that fast.
Bats was pushing the Bat to as fast as it could go. That was kind of the point of the scene. And I am fairly certain its faster than a Police Chopper.
