PIT maneuver

The PIT maneuver (precision immobilization technique) or TVI (tactical vehicle intervention) is a controversial law enforcement pursuit tactic in which a pursuing vehicle forces another vehicle to turn sideways abruptly, causing the driver to lose control and stop. It was developed by BSR Inc. and first used by the Fairfax County Police Department in Virginia, United States, in 1988.
