CHP compiles annual report (total, pursuit collisions, injuries, fatalities) to be presented to legislature. CHP Statistics for 2017: Below 100, crime victims entitled to compensation 2,588 pursuits, 536 (20%) resulted in a collision of which 65% were PDO, 8 fatals/9 dead(6 drivers, 1 passengers, 1 officer, 1 uninvolved)- Need to work w/DA on charges (2800, 191/192, 23153) 4 Purposes of PURSUIT POLICY (POST and CALEA certified) 1.

Actions lead to pursuits. 53% of pursuees are apprehended. Of the remaining 47%, 50% are aborted by the LE Agency The number of lives saved, and property protected by the pursuit and apprehension of suspects who evade arrest is immeasurable. Tie this into public trust, important acknowledge public perception, always looking at risk/gain.
