How long does it take you to reach the vehicle after initiating a motor vehicle stop? The moment you light up that car, the subjects you’ve seized are already making critical decisions. Are they preparing an assault? Do they have a weapon, and what are they doing with it? Is there contraband they’re trying to hide? Once you initiate the stop, your full attention must be on the people you’re contacting. The quicker you approach, the safer you are—and the more likely you are to catch key indicators of concealed weapons and contraband. Join J. Harris Academy of Police Training Instructor Lt.
