conditions. This would be highly beneficial when you drive during rainy or winter season.

offender or violator?
WHEN TO TERMINATE A PURSUIT

Pursuits should be discontinued whenever the totality of objective circumstances known or
which reasonably ought to be known to the officer or supervisor during the pursuit indicates that
the present risks of continuing the pursuit reasonably appear to outweigh the risks resulting from
the suspect(s)’ escape. The factors listed in Policy Manual § 314.2.1 are expressly included
herein and will apply equally to the decision to discontinue as well as the decision to initiate a
pursuit. Officers and supervisors must objectively and continuously weigh the seriousness of the
offense against the potential danger to uninvolved motorists and the officers when electing to
continue a pursuit. In the context of this policy, the term terminate shall be construed to mean
discontinue or to stop chasing the fleeing vehicle(s). In addition to the factors listed in Policy
Manual § 314.2.1 the following factors should also be considered in deciding whether to
terminate a pursuit:
(a) Distance between the pursuing officers and the fleeing vehicle(s) is so great that further
pursuit would be futile or require the pursuit to continue for an unreasonable time and/or
distance.
(b) Pursued vehicle’s location is no longer definitely known.
(c) Officer’s pursuit vehicle sustains any type of damage that renders it unsafe to drive.
(d) Extended pursuits of violators for misdemeanors not involving violence or risk of serious
harm (independent of the pursuit) are discouraged.
(e) Hazards to uninvolved bystanders or motorists.
(f) If the identity of the offender is known and it does not reasonably appear that the need for
immediate capture outweighs the risks associated with continuing the pursuit, officers should
strongly consider discontinuing the pursuit and apprehending the offender at a later time.
(g) Directed by a supervisor.
