New York Attorney General Letitia James today released the following statement after the New York City Police Department (NYPD) announced new policies regarding vehicle pursuits that will limit the practice to better ensure the safety of officers and the public:
“New Yorkers should never have to fear for their safety on our streets.Too often, vehicle pursuits for minor offenses put innocent bystanders in harm’s way, and NYPD officers deserve clear rules and guidance that will allow them to pursue criminals without endangering others. I welcome these policy changes that will protect both the police and the public, and enable the NYPD to better protect our city.”
