WHAT IF THE SUSPECT VEHICLE HAS A PLASTIC BUMPER?
This does not
pose a problem because the plastic is just a cover over the inner bumper. CrookHook
will always have something tangible to grab on to. At the push of a button CrookHook can
redeploy and be ready to grab ANY side of a suspect vehicle.

WHAT ABOUT CARS WITH FRONT WHEEL DRIVE OR POWERFUL V8 ENGINES?
Once hooked, powerful V8
engines with front or rear wheel drive do not have the ability to convert that power into traction. This will result in a
smokey but futile effort to flee.

DOES CROOKHOOK PICK UP THE BACK OF A FLEEING VEHICLE?
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Attempting
to lift a moving vehicle or even a stationary vehicle is extremely dangerous and puts enormous pressure on the underside of
the fleeing vehicle. That amount of pressure would easily rip open a fuel tank or tear open a trunk bottom. CrookHook is designed with pressure sensitive switches to automatically exert just the right amount
of pressure.
|
WHAT IF THE SUSPECT VEHICLE TURNS SHARPLY ONCE HOOKED?
This situation actually brings the
pursuit to a stop faster than if the perpetrator maintained a straight line. If the front vehicle turns violently and the
rear vehicle maintains a straight path, you now have eight wheels NOT in line with each other. Minimum braking on the
part of the police unit will be all that is necessary to bring this pursuit to a safe conclusion.
