Which sequence correctly lists the Modes of Use for a Taser?

• A. Probes discharged, Drive stun, Warning arc
• B. Warning arc, Probes discharged, Drive stun
• C. Drive stun, Warning arc, Probes discharged
• D. Warning arc, Drive stun, Probes discharged

Answer: (B)

The sequence reflects how a Taser is typically used: start with a Warning arc to non-contactly warn and assess, then deploy the probes to deliver the incapacitating energy through the barbs, and use Drive Stun as a close-quarters backup if needed. The warning arc helps ensure safety and deterrence before energy is applied, the probes provide the primary incapacitation method, and Drive Stun is reserved for situations where probes can’t be used or additional control is required. That makes the order: Warning arc, Probes discharged, Drive stun.
