Tips on how to arrest people?

I rarely get to arrest suspects after pursuits because they usually bail and run away, and because I can neither shoot them in the foot or tase them because the two options always result in immediate death, the AI cops always arrest the guy. And that's a bit boring, so any tips on how I could arrest someone?

Are you using the trainer? I set the trainer for Fast Run, this usually lets me beat the other cops in a foot pursuit (I usually don't spawn much help- one unit initially, then ramp it up depending on how the pursuit develops). I just equip the taser, chase them down, knock them over, and then I'm usually the one who gets the arrest.

I tried fast run, but the suspect refuses to surrender to me no matter how many times I tase him or press E. 

But as soon as an AI cop shows up he gives up immediately. This bothers me so much.

I've noticed once in a while the suspects don't give up- even after they've been cuffed. They continue to run, even getting back out of the car to try to escape. I'm guessing that's a glitch (?). At least you've been lucky enough to get them to give up- mine usually end up dead because they continue to run.

I haven't seen the AI cops arrest anyone in those circumstances, but I like seeing them take care of it after a pursuit. In fact, I prefer it. I mostly play in the rural areas so taking someone to jail can be a chore. I'll start backup (either Code 2 or 3) on a traffic stop with an alert and try to time my felony stops so that have them cuffed and I'm ready to walk them to my backup vehicle as soon as they arrive on scene.

And after you arrest them, I approach the rear door of the police car and the suspect just stands there. Only when I get in does he seat himself, how does one place him in the car, OR call a transport unit for him? 

 

OP: its hit or miss with me some give up I keep my weapon pointed at them and wait for the prompt to arrest. Sometimes it never comes up or AI take him. I agree though I want it more consistent like IV.

Go to the rear door and press F and you should open the door for them.  Then move around to the front door and it usually orders him to get in.

I can usually arrest people.  Aim at them and press e multiple times until he kneels down completely and you should get the arrest text.

I usually pull out in front, block their car jump out and go to their driver side door and hit 'F' pull them out of the car and then taser them before they get a chance by then backup usually comes in and it's a wrap. At the very least if they still try to drive off I blow out their tires with a shotgun and repeat. Prior to the update I wasn't too happy that when I equip the taser a shot from that would incapacitate them and then its body-bag time. (Side-note I love hot FinKone uses trash bags instead of body bags just because I laugh so much at the fact that really you're just throwing out the trash (bad guys)

You can use your car as a block long enough for backup to arrive and then the AI cops will swarm and pull the driver out and with luck will warrant an arrest, you can move in and take control afterwards if you want or can. Also if you use 'Morecontrol' mod then hit the 'K' key to lock your passenger doors so the suspect won't bolt out of the car before you get a chance to secure him/her in the back of your cruiser.
