Every law enforcement agency, regardless of size, transports prisoners. The majority of local agency transports begin at the scene of an arrest and end at a station, county jail, or hospital. Sheriff’s departments are also regularly required to transport prisoners from their jails to courthouses, medical facilities, prisons, and psychiatric facilities. Ensuring the safety and security of prisoners, transporting officers, and community members is a critical concern.

Officers could be transporting adult males, females, transgender adults, or juveniles. They might also find themselves moving prisoners with physical disabilities, including those who are wheelchair-bound. In one trip, officers may transport prisoners suspected of violent crimes alongside individuals charged with minor nonviolent offenses.

Keeping prisoners under control during transport can be challenging, as many see it as their best opportunity to escape. Even if not desperate to escape, prisoners can become resistive and disorderly, endangering the safety of transport officers, other prisoners, and even themselves.
