High-speed vehicular pursuits; directing law enforcement agencies to adopt certain policies and procedures; codification; effective date.
HB 2925 requires all Oklahoma law enforcement agencies (state, county, and local) to adopt written policies governing high-speed vehicle pursuits. The bill mandates specific provisions, including banning pursuits in densely populated areas, prohibiting shooting at moving vehicles, requiring supervisory approval before starting a pursuit, and limiting pursuits of misdemeanants to cases where no public harm or property damage is likely. It also strictly restricts pursuing alleged felons only when there is reasonable certainty the pursuit will prevent further harm, and prohibits pursuits for any crime not posing an immediate threat of death or serious injury (listing murder, assault, kidnapping, rape, and armed robbery as qualifying offenses). The policy changes take effect November 1, 2025.
