Method for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft

Abstract

A method for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft comprising utilization of a removable restraining apparatus to temporarily immobilize a vehicle.

1 . A method for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits comprising: 
 extending an apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits by utilizing a deploying mechanism prior to positioning the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits;    placing the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits around a vehicle tire of a stopped vehicle; and,    employing at least one retaining arm.    
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a telescoping mechanism.  
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 2  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a plurality of retaining arms.  
   
   
       4 . The method of  claim 3  wherein said plurality of retaining arms comprise a telescoping mechanism.  
   
   
       5 . The method of  claim 4  further comprising removing the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits.  
   
   
       6 . The method of  claim 5  further comprising raising the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits into a closed position after removing the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits.  
   
   
       7 . A method for preventing vehicle theft comprising: 
 extending an apparatus for preventing vehicle theft by utilizing a deploying mechanism prior to positioning the apparatus for preventing vehicle theft;    placing the apparatus for preventing vehicle theft around a vehicle tire of a stopped vehicle; and    employing at least one retaining arm.    
   
   
       8 . The method of  claim 7  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a telescoping mechanism.  
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 7  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a plurality of retaining arms.  
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 9  wherein said plurality of retaining arms comprise a telescoping mechanism.  
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 7  further comprising removing the apparatus for preventing vehicle theft.  
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 11  further comprising: 
 raising the apparatus for preventing vehicle theft into a closed position after removing the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits.    
   
   
       13 . A method for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft comprising: 
 extending an apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft by the deploying mechanism prior to positioning said apparatus;    placing the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft around the vehicle tire of a stopped vehicle;    locking the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft by actuating the locking mechanism in position around the vehicle tire.    
   
   
       14 . The method of  claim 13  further comprising actuating at least one retaining arm of the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft.  
   
   
       15 . The method of  claim 14  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a telescoping design.  
   
   
       16 . The method of  claim 15  wherein said at least one retaining arm comprises a plurality of retaining arms.  
   
   
       17 . The method of  claim 16  wherein said plurality of retaining arms comprise a telescoping mechanism.  
   
   
       18 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising removing said apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft.  
   
   
       19 . The method of  claim 18  further comprising: 
 raising the apparatus for preventing high speed vehicle pursuits and vehicle theft into a closed position after removing said apparatus.
