* At high wanted levels, prioritize escaping from or killing [[Military|soldiers]] (six stars), [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] agents (five stars) , [[SWAT]] soldiers (four stars onwards, sometimes three in the case of GTA Vice City, where a single SWAT unit can drop down from a Police Maverick) and  [[Vice Squad]] Agents (three stars onwards, GTA VC and GTA VCS only) over killing regular police officers, as they can kill a player with their weapons in a short amount of time.

* At higher levels, the best way to clear the wanted level is to shoot down the police helicopters, and sneak into a Pay 'n' Spray before they respawn. Another good strategy is to enter the subway system (GTA III and GTA LCS only) with a vehicle (preferably a motorbike) and follow the underground routes until they reach a Pay 'n' Spray (or lose the wanted level, if the player has a one star), but the player must be careful not to get lost in the system or getting hit by the oncoming Subway Trains.

* Stunt jumping gives the player considerable distance from the police but may not guarantee total escape, as certain factors, such as the wanted level, environment of the stunt jump, "projectile" motion concept of physics, and the position of other police units, come into play.
