Risk Mitigation on Traffic Stops
An officer’s most common and dangerous public contact is through the traffic stop. Law enforcement officers know that there are no “routine” traffic stops, as each stop encompasses unidentified risks through every vehicle, bicycle, or pedestrian contact. A variety of reasons exist for law enforcement officers to stop a vehicle, but the most common is a traffic code violation. This interactive online course aims to educate officers on mitigating risks during traffic stops using statistical analysis and discussing various traffic stop tactics.
