  • 2. 

    During a a unknown risk traffic stop how far back from the violator vehicle should the patrol vehicle be located?

    • 5 feet

    • 10 feet

    • 15 feet

    • 20 feet

    • 30 feet

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. 10 feet
    A. 15 feet
    Explanation
    During an unknown risk traffic stop, the patrol vehicle should be located 10-15 feet back from the violator vehicle. This distance allows enough space for the officer to observe the occupants of the violator vehicle and react quickly if any threat arises. Being too close to the violator vehicle can put the officer at risk, while being too far away may hinder their ability to respond effectively. Therefore, maintaining a distance of 10-15 feet strikes a balance between safety and effectiveness during a traffic stop.

  • 3. 

    In which direction should the patrol vehicle usually be offset during an unknown risk traffic stop?

    • Left

    • Right

    • Center

    • It depends

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Left
    A. It depends
    Explanation
    During an unknown risk traffic stop, the patrol vehicle should usually be offset to the left. However, it ultimately depends on the specific situation and the officer's assessment of the risk. Offset positioning helps create a barrier between the officer and oncoming traffic, reducing the risk of being struck by passing vehicles. By positioning the vehicle to the left, it allows the officer to have a better view of the traffic and potential threats approaching from the right side. However, depending on factors such as road conditions, visibility, and the location of the stop, the officer may choose a different offset position.
