Which items are included in the 'Initiation of stop procedures' step?

• A. Selection of location
• B. Gain attention of violator
• C. Anticipate actions of violator
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

Initiation of stop procedures is about getting control and safety established at the very start. Selecting a location ensures you stop in a safe, visible spot with the right space to maneuver. Gaining the violator’s attention communicates your authority and makes the encounter clear, reducing confusion or sudden movements. Anticipating actions of the violator means you’re already considering possible responses and ready to adapt your approach and commands to keep the situation under control. When you combine these elements, you cover the essential early steps of starting a stop, which is why all of the above are included.
