CPD Academy Practice Test

Which sequence correctly lists the stages of an arrest?

APPROACH, POSITION, CONTROL DETAIN, QUESTION, TRANSPORT SEARCH, HANDCUFF, RELEASE CHASE, TACKLE, HANDCUFF

Correct Answer:

APPROACH, POSITION, CONTROL

Explanation:

The sequence tested focuses on the logical order of actions to safely bring someone into custody. You start by approaching the subject to identify them, assess the situation, and establish clear communication about the intent to arrest. Once contact is made and safety is assessed, you move into a position that maximizes your safety and control of the scene, reducing the risk of flight or harm. After establishing position, you apply the necessary control to restrain and secure the suspect, such as placing restraints as appropriate. Other sequences mix in actions that belong later (like searching or transporting) or jump to restraint before properly assessing and approaching, or rely on pursuit and force, which do not reflect the orderly, safety-focused flow of an arrest.
