abstract="This research project examined the potential variables associated with high-risk police pursuits in the United States state of Georgia. The Georgia Association of Chiefs of Police (GACP) initiated data collection of pursuits among accredited agencies as a result of the decision in Scott v. Harris. A sample of 2,155 pursuit reports from 2007 to 2009 was analyzed using chi-square analysis. Variables associated with negative pursuit outcomes revealed a classification of variables for high-risk pursuits. The findings indicated a classification of high-risk pursuit variables, which originated from approximately 100 GACP accredited police agencies per year during the 3-year collection of data. <br><br>DISCUSSION includes implications related to policy evaluation and training as well as suggestions for future research.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
