Which option lists all three positions identified for placing a suspect after exiting a vehicle?

• A. Bring them back to rear of their vehicle
• B. Have them prone out
• C. Bring them back to rear of their vehicle; Bring them back to you = 6-10 feet in front of cruisers; Have them prone out
• D. Bring them back to you = 6-10 feet in front of cruisers

Answer: (C)

The idea being tested is knowing the three standard positions used after a suspect exits a vehicle to ensure safety and control. The best answer lists all three: bring the suspect back to the rear of the vehicle, bring them back to you about 6–10 feet in front of your cruiser, and have them prone out. Each position serves a purpose—placing them at the rear of the vehicle keeps them away from traffic and the vehicle’s tires; moving them to a spot a short distance in front of the cruiser gives the officer a clear sightline and room to maneuver; and having them prone out reduces their ability to reach for weapons or make sudden movements, increasing control and safety for everyone involved. The other options miss one or more of these essential placements, so they don’t fully represent the standard sequence.
