ALL POLICIES ON THIS PAGE ARE CONSIDERED RESTRICTED & PROHIBITED FROM RELEASE OUTSIDE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT

This resource hub is designed to support law enforcement agencies in navigating the complex and often high-risk nature of vehicle pursuits. It offers access to a variety of informational materials and sample policies related to pursuit protocols and approved intervention techniques. These techniques may include, but are not limited to, containment strategies, Precision Immobilization Technique (PIT) maneuvers, grappler deployment, stop sticks, roadblocks, and other pursuit-ending methods.

The purpose of this resource is to assist agencies in developing or refining their own vehicle pursuit policies by providing examples from across the law enforcement community. These materials are intended for reference only and should not be considered as universal standards or mandates.

It is the sole responsibility of each agency to thoroughly review and evaluate all content provided. Agencies must ensure that any adopted procedures or techniques are in compliance with current federal, state, and local laws, as well as consistent with their internal policies, training standards, and evolving best practices in law enforcement. Regular policy reviews and updates are strongly encouraged to reflect advancements in technology, legal rulings, and lessons learned from real-world incidents.

Use this resource as a starting point to strengthen your agency’s approach to safe, effective, and accountable pursuit management.
