PRECISION IMMOBILIZATION TECHNIQUE (P.I.T.)

ALL TYPES OF LAW ENFORCEMENT ARE FACED WITH THE DELEMA OF : WHAT IS OUR POLICY ON PURSUITS OR SHOULD WE PURSUE AT ALL? IT IS THE OPINION OF THE GEORGIA STATE PATROL THAT IT IS OUR JOB TO PURSUE AND APPREHEND VIOLATORS AS QUICKLY AND SAFELY AS POSSIBLE. WE (THE POLICE) MUST RESPOND / REACT QUICKLY AND REASONABLY TO ACHIEVE THE GOAL OF ARREST. THE PRECISION IMMOBILIZATION TECHNIQUE IS CERTAINLY OUR NEWEST OPTION IN STOPPING A DANGEROUS PURSUIT. IT IS OUR JOB AS TRAINERS TO BROADEN OUR ABILITIES AND KNOWLEDGE AND IT IS NO DEFFERENT IN THE AREA OF POLICE PURSUITS. THIS TRAINING ALONG WITH PRACTICAL EXERCISES WILL ENHANCE BOTH OUR PSYCHOLOGICAL AS WELL AS OUR MOTOR SKILLS IN THIS VERY IMPORTANT MANEUVER.
