Bad tactics will destroy even the best strategy.” -George S. Patton\n Course Overview Interdiction is widely taught across the country. \; Various classes teach on this topic\, whether learning “The Drive” or empl oying a high volume of stops.  \;However\, the “tactics” to keep the i nterdiction officer safe are constantly overlooked or rarely highlighted.& nbsp\; STOPS Tactical Criminal Interdiction is a training program that str esses proactive officers’ safety\, giving them a foundation for success in the interdiction world.\nSTOPS Tactical Criminal Interdiction focuses on tactics the proactive officer should utilize when seeking the criminal ele ment.  \;We have developed a tactical course that breaks the stop/cont act into three parts: the beginning\, middle\, and end of contact.  \;
