Is there a law that states the maximum acceleration allowed for police officers in the state of California?

I was just wondering if there is an established maximum acceleration allowed by a California Highway Patrol Officer (or any other type of peace officer in the state of California) when in pursuit of an assailant. It seems funny to me that a CHP would just be readily allowed to reach exceedingly dangerous levels of acceleration (which to me is just as important as velocity) to reach a speeder. I know this isn't always the case, but sometimes it is, and I have to wonder if anyone is governing the police.
