This intensive three-day course combines **Interdiction Tactics** and **Cartel Traps Hidden Compartment Training** into one comprehensive interdiction program designed for proactive law enforcement officers.

The course covers the **entire interdiction process—from identifying the vehicle to finding the load.** Students will learn how to recognize criminal behavior and unusual travel, develop high-quality traffic stops, conduct effective roadside interviews, recognize indicators of criminal activity, transition into vehicle searches, and identify sophisticated concealment methods used by criminal organizations.

Instruction progresses from **roadside interdiction tactics and behavioral indicators to advanced vehicle searches and hidden compartments.** Students will learn how to recognize tooling and tampering, identify natural and manufactured voids, conduct systematic vehicle searches, and locate electronically and manually operated compartments concealed throughout passenger vehicles.

**Topics include:** criminal behavior and travel indicators, roadside interviews, vehicle selection, traffic-stop tactics, search techniques, natural voids, tooling and tampering, electronic and manual traps, floor compartments, rocker panels, firewalls, dashboards, roofs, tires, and other advanced concealment methods.

Deputy Bedingfield was extremely informative and super detailed in his class. It was helpful to hear directly from someone who is putting in the actual work in the field. The videos and BWC were very interesting to apply what was being taught or see class material in action.
