As we push for Georgia state officials to make these common-sense changes, you can help. Sign this petition, share your story if you've been personally affected, or ask Atlanta City Council to protect residents from dangerous pursuits without guardrails.
Please, help us ensure that our state’s police chases no longer claim the lives of so many innocent victims in the name of protecting them.
Sign this petition to join advocates calling for fundamental changes to Georgia’s high-speed police pursuit policies:
- Restrict high-speed pursuits to cases involving violent felonies that present an immediate danger to the public.
- Require supervisory approval before initiating or continuing a pursuit.
- Prohibit high-speed pursuits and PIT maneuvers in densely populated areas, during peak traffic times such as school drop-off and pick-up, within major pedestrian corridors such as local business districts, and in residential neighborhoods.
We'll use this petition to demonstrate support for these changes to state and local officials, and to provide you with updates as this effort develops.
Other ways to support
- If you've been personally affected by a high-speed pursuit, please share your story with us: email [email protected].
- Advocates will be at the Atlanta City Council Monday, April 21st to give public comment. You can sign up to speak at City Hall before 1:00 PM in the City Council Chamber at Atlanta City Hall, 55 Trinity Avenue Atlanta, GA 30303.
