Emergency Vehicle Operations

Emergency Vehicle Operations: A Line Officera (TM)s Guide is an all-inclusive, hands-on training/reference guide in compliance with the most recent version of the IADLEST Law Enforcement Driver Training Reference Guide.

Chapter-opening Objectives summarize each book chapter to help students understand the material. Chapter-ending Review Questions reinforce the concepts.

Two completely new chapters cover challenges of great concern to modern Law Enforcement:

• Lawsuits: This is a concern of every line officer. This chapter instructs officers as to how to prepare in the event a lawsuit is initiated, providing clear-cut guidelines for testifying at trials and depositions.
• Risk Management: This chapter provides a framework for installing an agency-wide, vehicle operation Risk Management Program.

All book material is policy driven, in the context of an agencya (TM)s own policy. You train using this book, and you train to your own policy. A Policy Worksheet Appendix provides an invaluable, step-by-step walk-through to help ensure a complete understanding of the material. A Glossary enables officers to understand vehicular jargon and all related terminology. A complete Index makes using the book quick and easy.

This emergency vehicle "bible" sets the standard for line officer training. It helps officers take the skills learned in training and correctly apply them to the nitty-gritty, emotionally charged street atmosphere, so that they can sort out and make the right decisions under fire. This book is a must for every training classroom, and should be kept in the glove compartment of every emergency vehicle.
