    Good to know. I forget every year and end up sitting in traffic trying to find my way to C and C... Thanks Brian

     

    No prob. I'll be running in it again as always and every year people get stranded in traffic.

    Is there anyone here who has actual police knowledge or training on as to when the change between a taser and a gun? I think this situation if there was a taser at my reach I would have dropped him with that then determined from there the level of the situation

     

    I would have absolutely deployed my taser. This is a perfect example for it. However, you can't simply rely on just the taser to solve the situation. They don't always work 100%, miss, etc... so you still need to be prepared to resort to lethal force if necessary.

     

    Not every cop carries a taser. You have to go through a qualification course and since (I've read) this guy is a rookie, I assume he hasn't done that yet.

     

    Depends on the department. Majority of larger departments put you through the training in the academy.
