  • Training and safety: potentially lethal blue-on-blue encounters
    Police Practice and Research, 2019
    Co-Authors: Dawn A. O’neill, William Spence, William J. Lewinski, Emily J. Novak
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACTPotentially lethal blue-on-blue (i.e. Officer-on-Officer) encounters result in the use-of-force against an unidentified Officer, such as an off-duty or undercover Officer (OD/UC), and have not been empirically investigated. A vignette involving an ambiguous situation involving a plainclothes individual with a gun and 6-item survey were used to determine (a) how officers would respond to ensure the safety of those on scene and (b) how well responses from participants with blue-on-blue training or lived experience adhered to recommendations from the New York Task Force on Police-on-Police Shootings. A secondary aim was to investigate near misses (i.e. almost using force against a fellow Officer in the field). In the vignette, a Uniformed Officer arrives at a scene where one plainclothes individual is holding another plainclothes individual at gunpoint. Thematic analysis revealed variables perceived to maximize safety. Less than half of the sample received blue-on-blue training, and exposure to trainin...

  • Context for Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Activity in 2020: Forecast of Future Directions in Truck Safety and Security
    2006
    Co-Authors: Ronald Hughes, Stephen Keppler, Skip Yeakel, Conal Deedy, Tom Moses, Charlie Carden
    Abstract:

    Future research and technology needs for commercial motor vehicle (CMV) enforcement are discussed within the context of the increasing emphasis on freight operations associated with multimodal, global, and supply chain management. Research is needed to exploit the application of current and future technologies capable of overcoming constraints associated with the continuation of traditional, labor-intensive enforcement methods, methods that significantly limit the spatial and temporal elements of enforcement effectiveness and capacity. CMV enforcement capabilities need to keep pace with technology-based modes of operation under development by the trucking industry. Commercial vehicle operations will become increasingly information-driven, and enforcement must be able to operate fully within such an information-based environment. More effective and more highly automated information screening methods need to be developed to detect anomalies in driver, vehicle, route, and load information streaming in from thousands of continuously tracked vehicles. It is likely that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as well as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Homeland Security Department will have to seek such expertise outside the current transportation community. Methods need to be developed to enable enforcement to preempt incidents having the potential to harm the public seriously or to cause disruption to critical infrastructure. Shorter incident response times are a necessary but not a sufficient condition for deterrence. Inspection methods need to be developed to provide alternatives to a Uniformed Officer who must physically stop a vehicle to inspect it. Methods also need to be developed to enable a single Officer to screen multiple vehicles effectively as they pass in and out of the effective range of a wireless ability to interact with the truck's onboard systems. Finally, enforcement needs to work with the OEM community to develop systems that are self enforcing. In addition, enforcement needs to develop improved methods of collaboration with the industry.
