The C4C PJJ Vehicle Extraction Tactics (C4CPJJ-VET) curriculum focuses on de-escalation, communication, vehicle assessment, and team tactics to remove uncooperative suspects from vehicles. Decision factors include the vehicle’s mobility, the crime committed, the type of suspect vehicle, and whether the suspect is known to be armed. Officers learn when to execute an extraction and, just as importantly, when patrol should not attempt a suspect extraction. Topics include communication details, team tactics with specific roles for officers, including team approach, lethal coverage, hands-on/extraction tactics, and team custody details, when to disengage, not to perform an extraction, or turn the situation over to a tactical team. The C4C VET course includes a PowerPoint chalk talk and lesson plan for attendees. 

All curriculum complies with the use of force case law and LEO best practices of using reasonable force to overcome suspect resistance. The PJJ Control and Custody Course allow officers to physically control resisting suspects and gain custody through handcuffing resisting suspects using low-level physical force.
