The bill H. 3923 proposes the establishment of the "High Speed Pursuit Alternative Study Committee" in South Carolina. This committee is tasked with examining the feasibility of equipping South Carolina Highway Patrol vehicles with launcher devices that can propel GPS tracking gadgets to attach to criminal suspects' vehicles. The committee will consist of three members from the Senate and three from the House of Representatives, appointed by the respective chairmen of the Judiciary Committees, along with the Director of the Department of Public Safety. The most senior members from each legislative body will serve as co-chairs.
The bill outlines that the study committee will be responsible for reporting its recommendations to the General Assembly within six months of the resolution's approval, after which the committee will be dissolved. The resolution will take effect upon receiving the Governor's approval.
