In drive-stun operation, which statement is true?

• A. It is used for long-range incapacitation
• B. It requires two probes to complete the cycle
• C. It provides pain-compliance and is not intended as the primary incapacitation method
• D. Used only with a live cartridge

Answer: (C)

Drive-stun involves delivering an electrical pulse through direct skin contact, with no darts fired. The purpose is to produce pain and discomfort to gain compliance and control a situation, not to incapacitate from a distance. This is why the true statement is that drive-stun provides pain-compliance and is not intended as the primary incapacitation method—the main incapacitation effect comes from the dart-based, longer-range mode, not from drive-stun. The other options don’t fit: drive-stun is not used for long-range incapacitation, it doesn’t require two separate probes to complete the cycle, and it isn’t limited to use only with a live cartridge.
