Course Description
**Cartel Traps Hidden Compartment Training** is a comprehensive one-day classroom course designed to give law enforcement officers the knowledge and techniques needed to conduct more thorough and effective vehicle searches.
The course takes officers beyond a basic vehicle search by teaching them **how to systematically identify and clear the natural voids found throughout a vehicle**, recognize indicators of aftermarket modifications, and detect sophisticated hidden compartments used to conceal narcotics, currency, weapons, and other contraband.
Students will learn how to recognize **tooling, tampering, dimensional inconsistencies, non-factory construction, electronic and manual access systems, and other indicators of concealment.** The course breaks down hidden compartments throughout the entire vehicle, including floors, firewalls, rocker panels, dashboards, center consoles, roofs, trunks, cargo areas, engine compartments, and other commonly exploited locations.
Real-world photographs, videos, case studies, and detailed trap-car breakdowns are used throughout the course to show students exactly what these compartments look like and, more importantly, **how to recognize the indicators that lead to their discovery.**
From commonly overlooked natural voids to highly sophisticated electronically operated compartments, Cartel Traps provides officers with a systematic approach to vehicle searching that can be immediately applied in the field.
**Clear the Voids. Know what factory looks like. Stop missing traps.**
*Training restricted to sworn law enforcement personnel.*
