Officials also said the state will use federal funds to expand license plate technology to combat a spike in stolen vehicles the last few years.
, both auto theft and most drug offenses were removed from the list of crimes in which car pursuits are allowed. Officials at the time cited how chases have frequently resulted in injury to officers, third-party victims, and pedestrians.
“These changes will give law enforcement the tools that they need to meet the moment and to protect our communities while also being mindful of the inherent risks that come to officer safety and to the public when officers do engage in police pursuits,” he said. Officials said the technology is already being used in urban areas but will now be expanded to suburban areas.“Crime does not stop at the municipal boundaries of our cities,” the governor said. “This investment can mean less officer hours spent chasing leads and more of them spent recovering stolen vehicles and getting car thieves off of our streets.”
