New technologies, have promised to make pursuits safer but are not practical, bulky and costly. These systems which ar e designed to stop a car, have the same risks and often the safe use is limits them to use behind protective cover.

The practicality suffered because often times, these systems can not be adjusted in traffice, and a patrol car is used to funnel the target over the spikes, plus the officers find themselves tethered to the system in close proximity to traffic.

Deployments, Anytime Anywhere.

These high tech solutions do not open up deployment areas, they also require cover for safety, and that can be achived with a very basic, affordable, compact deflator. Trident shown below is Spike Devils high tech solution, that works with our Auto-spike, its a basic system that deploys the spikes into the far lanes, but requires the officer to adjust the system and also pull it from traffic.

The Trident is tethered to the strip and when hit by a car it retracts from traffic. the officer can then fold up the system for storage.

While the Trident appears to be a powerful tool, it is regulated to being used behind protective cover for safety. The facts are that a standard Spike system can perform the same job, at a much lower price.
