Mock Pullovers
Monmouth County
Mock pullovers provide a simulated experience in which individuals, particularly those with autism, can interact with officers during a traffic stop scenario. The program is essential because it offers opportunities for autistic individuals to understand what may occur during a motor vehicle stop and the kind of directions that officers may give. As a result, these simulations help autistic individuals have safer interactions if pulled over. An example of a thoughtful and comprehensive approach to mock pullovers is Elizabeth Police Department’s Safe Interaction Program (SIP).
