Chapter 4

Cartridges & CEW Operation

Suggested pressure points are highlighted in the green areas. Use care when

applying the drive stun to the neck or groin (yellow and red areas - users should

only target these areas when they are defending themselves against a violent

attacker). Stay away from the trachea and back of the neck. The trachea is soft

tissue and could easily be crushed. The cervical portion of the spine is very sensitive

to pressure. Also, care should be taken when applying a drive stun to the pelvic

triangle to avoid the possibility of crushing the testicles. Because of the risk of injury,

these areas should not be used on subjects who do not pose an immediate threat.

Refer and adhere to your department’s policy and training regarding drive-

stuns in these and other sensitive areas.
