Hands-on Driving With SUVs

3/28/2017
Many law enforcement agencies are replacing the sedans in their fleets with SUVs. This course, SUV - Sport Utility Operations, will help officers transition from driving cars to SUVs. Officers must bring their department-issued SUV to participate. Lessons include classroom instruction and practical hands-on exercises such as basic cone courses, advanced maneuvering and handling courses, and higher speed exercises for simulated emergency response and intersection clearing. Students will also have an off-road driving session.
Note: All students will use their department-issued SUV for course exercises. OPOTA vehicles will be provided for the off-road driving lesson.
