What if the guy had a scanner and knew Hemorrhoid1960 had taken up the chase? Can any of you say you would be willing to have him apprehend you?

What do you think they'ld get an azz beating?
Those days are over, they cost too much in civil suits. Plus you have to sit at the hospital with them, while they get sewn up.
What do you know about pursuits and apprehension of suspects?
The stops are all conducted as high risk stops unless the suspect has wrecked and can't get out of the veh. on their own then it becomes a medical emergency. I've had to hold compresses on suspects who've wrecked prior to EMT's arriving at the scene, or while rescue is using the JOL to extracate them from the veh.
Probably in every LE agency in the US, they have a pursuit policy. These policies are detailed and descriptive as to the responsibility of LE and the reasons that pursuits will take place. They include in detail the responsibility/duties of the pursuing LEO and his supervisor.
Many agencies have limited their reasons for initating pursuit other then the most dire cases. The use of spike strips have gone along way in stopping pursuits before they get too dangerous. As well as agencies stopping the pursuit themselves.
