The post goes on to say a Germantown police sergeant was concerned due to extensive construction on US 41, where lanes were closed, and construction workers were on scene. It was clear to the sergeant that it was necessary to terminate the pursuit. He successfully terminated the pursuit by using the Pursuit Intervention Technique – better known as the PIT maneuver.
