Transporting and Processing Arrestees Practice Test

Tying the hands and feet together is unsafe and not allowed because it severely limits movement and can endanger breathing and circulation. This kind of restraint can lead to positional asphyxia, nerve or tissue damage, and makes monitoring the arrestee’s condition, providing medical care, and safely transporting them much harder. The proper approach is to restrain the hands with handcuffs (preferably behind the back and double-locked to prevent tightening) and use leg restraints only if there’s a clear risk of kicking or escape. Leaving someone unsecured is dangerous and not appropriate.
