Cartel Traps

When you choose an instructor, experience matters, but being good at the job and being good at teaching the job are two different things.

Look for instructors you can trust. Instructors who are still doing the work, who bring real-world experience into the classroom, and who know how to turn that experience into training officers can actually understand, retain, and apply in the field.

I’m proud of the experience I bring to Cartel Traps, but I’m equally proud of the feedback from the officers who have sat through the training.

1,662 reviews. ⭐ 4.94/5 average. 100% recommend.

Those numbers mean a lot because the goal has never been to simply stand in front of a room and show some cool cases. The goal is for every student to leave seeing vehicles differently, searching with a purpose, and knowing exactly what to look for on their next stop.

Choose experience. Choose proven instruction. Choose training that translates to the street.

Many floor traps are essentially in plain view, you just need to know what you’re looking at.

In this clip, I explain:
• How to identify the true access point for electronic floor traps
• Why the cut between the seat rails is significant
• How to distinguish a factory carpet seam from a modified access panel

Many hidden compartments aren’t found because they’re hidden. They’re missed because officers don’t recognize the indicators. With the right training, many floor traps are essentially plain view.
