Abstract
John C. KellerCalifornia Highway Patrol, Office of Special ProjectsSacramento, California 95818AbstractA plea is made for better communication among law enforcement, researchers, and engineers to develop usefultechnology for terminating high-speed pursuits. An overall strategy is presented for developing profiles of typicalpursuits. Notable 1995 study data is summarized for 195 pursuits by the California Highway Patrol in the Fresno andStockton areas of California. Various pursuit characteristics are identified that could be useful in the conceptualizationand development of pursuit termination technology. These include the short duration, high speed, and voluntary end ofmany pursuits, the substantial role of stolen vehicles, a distinctive time period for pursuits, and the limited availability ofaerial support. There are few reports on this topic and many research opportunities.Keywords: police, pursuit, profile, law enforcement, technology, scenarios, training.
