Esta ley permite que los policías de otros estados persigan a personas que han hecho algo muy malo, como un robo. No tienen que esperar para entrar a Nueva Jersey si están persiguiendo a alguien que creen que hizo un delito.

Imagina que un oficial de policía de Nueva York ve a un ladrón escapar después de robar una tienda. Si el ladrón cruza la frontera hacia Nueva Jersey, el policía puede seguirlo sin esperar y detenerlo, porque está en 'persecución inmediata'.
