This two-day advanced live-fire law enforcement patrol program will increase an officer's survivability against heavily armed offenders in and around a motor vehicle.  The primary focus of this class is to provide law enforcement officers with practical emergency vehicle deployment techniques through the use of systematic methods of instruction.  This live-fire course brings to light complexities associated with a motor vehicle's confined space as it relates to emergency evacuation, counter ambush, and citizen/officer rescue.  Class begins with a live-fire ballistic laboratory in which students will have the opportunity to compare different types of ammunition, including pistol, rifle, and shotgun, against a multitude of different surfaces, including window glass, engine block and exterior vehicle surfaces.    All the tactics, techniques, and procedures utilized in this class are for previously trained first responders.  The course is physically strenuous and mentally challenging to mirror conditions encountered during real world, justifiable use of force situations.
