baggage rules will work \u2013 and when they start<br \/>\n  <\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"articleBody\" data-key=\"articleBody\">US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers have been ordered not to engage in high-speed car chases and to make vehicle stops only if they have completed specific training, under new internal guidance issued after several people were shot in encounters with ICE.A memo sent to officers in ICE\u2019s Enforcement and Removal Operations division warned they are not authorised to chase vehicles that fail to pull over under any circumstances.Instead, officers should take down the vehicles\u2019 information for further investigation, according to the memo signed by ICE\u2019s executive associate director Marcos D. Charles and dated Wednesday.The new guidance comes after ICE-initiated vehicle stops have repeatedly escalated when drivers have refused to cooperate or tried to flee. ICE agents have fired their guns during more than a dozen such encounters since last year, killing at least four people and wounding several others.US President Donald Trump&#8217;s administration has faced internal tension over how to handle traffic stops, which are seen as particularly high-risk encounters.After fatal shootings of drivers in Maine and Texas in July, ICE officers were directed to temporarily pause most vehicle stops.But the next day, Trump went on social media to direct the agency to continue traffic stops, calling them \u201cone of ICE\u2019s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools.\u201dICE has faced intense pressure from the White House to deport more people who are in the country illegally, and its arrests have reached record numbers. At the same time, the agency&#8217;s rapid hiring spree last year resulted in some poorly vetted and trained officers hitting the streets.In a statement, ICE downplayed the significance of the memo, which said the new guidance was intended to replace and amend prior directives issued earlier this year, last year and in 2018.\u201cOccasionally, ICE leadership issues guidance reminders to law enforcement officers,\u201d the statement said. \u201cVehicle stops and arrests of illegal aliens continue.\u201dThe new memo outlines steps intended to improve the safety of vehicle stops for ICE officers, drivers they are targeting, their passengers and the public.The memo told ICE\u2019s field office directors that they must ensure vehicles used for traffic stops have lights and sirens that let the public know they are law enforcement vehicles when activated.All officers on the scenes of vehicle stops must also wear and activate their body cameras under the new guidance. In addition, only officers who have completed one of five specific agency training courses can conduct vehicle stops.Officers who have not completed the training courses can only participate in vehicle stops \u201cin a support capacity\u201d as passengers and cannot be the drivers of any of the vehicles involved.The guidance however says ICE officers can continue to use a controversial technique known as pinning, which is defined as \u201cusing a vehicle or physical barrier to trap or stop a car,\u201d but only if they have received special training.Similarly, only trained officers can use spike strips that deflate tires to prevent drivers from fleeing.The memo came the day that courtroom testimony highlighted ways in which two ICE officers involved in a vehicle stop, pursuit and shooting that wounded a delivery driver in Austin last month would not have complied with the new guidance.Prosecutors presented surveillance video that showed an ICE agent chasing Garces Perez at high speeds through residential streets after he fled an initial traffic stop, before eventually catching up to him and shooting him, without a body camera in sight.Garces Perez faces federal assault charges after investigators say he struck an ICE officer with his driver\u2019s side mirror. That officer then shot into Perez&#8217;s vehicle, lodging a bullet in his back, officials say.Attorneys for Garces Perez have called the charges against him \u201cretaliation\u201d and have argued that the camera footage was inconclusive because it didn\u2019t fully capture the moment when he allegedly tried to flee.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/10\/02\/new-ice-guidance-sets-tighter-rules-for-vehicles-stops-bans-officers-from-high-speed-chase&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/93\/62\/36\/1200x675_cmsv2_806b9c4d-ec71-5e96-91f2-3dc632d32a06-9936236.jpg&#8221;] Europe News Two underage migrants stabbed in Ceuta as tensions rise Brazil US suspends consular services in Brazil over security concerns Europe News S\u00e1nchez begins reflection on early election as protesters call for general strike Europe News Russia &#8216;tearing Kyiv apart&#8217;, mayor says, as strikes paralyse traffic Europe News Two underage migrants [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2176470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2176470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2176470"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2176470\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2176470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2176470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2176470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
