      @@freefieldtraining Amen to that bro! My buddy teaches at the academy here & gives me tips didn't mention the tires yet I'll have to ask if he teaches that penny trick, thanks again for that! He's got 27yrs now & is always messing with his squad car at home so sure he does. I'm trying to join SWAT as a medic but dealing with a bad case of Crohn's disease but I'm pushing for it hopefully start paramedic training soon depending on Covid... I'm actually in the hospital now & they're down to 1 ward from the 5 they had so that's good. Enjoying the vids per usual though!

    You are right. This is not covered in enough detail. Intersection negotiation is the most dangerous part of the pursuit.

    Tire pressure and inspection is soooo important. Don’t trust your dealer, the tire shop, or whoever. They will get it wrong. Do it yourself. Assuming you are on stock size tires, the correct pressure will usually be listed in the driver’s door jamb.

    In Bloomington MN they're allowed to not only pursue, but to PIT relatively liberally. Reason being, both the MSP International airport and the Mall of America are located in Bloomington.

    In my european police department we drive VW Transporter vans. Not a great pursuit vehicle but you can take speedbumps at 80 km/h while the regular car needs to slow down to at least 65 km/h. The suspention does get a serious beating though !

    Our agency pursuit policy:
    1. Don't be in 1st place.
    2. Don't tear up my dang cars.
    3. Stop chasing when your radio quits working or you run out of gas.

    • @freefieldtraining
      @freefieldtraining  Před 3 lety +1

      For the primary there us an exceptional amount t of paperwork if there is a pursuit with subs in custody and tows. Way more if they crash in town.

    Wait so RED markers are NOT good?!😨 I thought stopping every 6' down that one street was ridiculous!🤔 DAMN IT! Explains why I'm always yelling at people for going the wrong way too.😵 Oops. GREAT VIDEO definitely don't see many dual reflection markers on older/side streets! Great tip on inner sidewalls & LOVE THE PENNY TRICK, TY! 👍 Is that why guys walking medians offer "CHANGE!"? 😂 THANKS BRO KEEP IT UP & STAY SAFE! MY 2 CENTS😁: Those aren't 'Soaps' on the roof seems their luggage racks! Trust me, MY CITY was PISSED EACH TIME I TRIED flipping & grinding curbs w my truck. Hey freaking skaters confused me they always cheered! And I thought I was finally one of the cool kid's😥

    What the hell happened to jumping into a car--whatever its tires, etc. are like--, cranking it up to 70mph, flying through air, steering with one hand, shooting out the side window with the other?

    LMAO And when you're ON the brakes, trying to get your speed down from 70, when you hit that speed bump... it is gonna HURT! You're gonna rattle a couple of fillings loose from your teeth. AND your Sgt. is gonna be pissed because of the damage you've done to your front wheels/suspension.
