It appears the training is for shooting bad guys in an urban environment with civvies walking around. A proverbial "don't shoot the good guy" carnival game.

Pass/fail scoring?

Wait till you see the jungle training. The English translation was a bit off. Always is.

When you actually think about it, this is the crawl phase. In a real situation you would have people running, at all different angles...way too hard to get a good "safe" sight picture long enough to shoot. FWIW the better option, IMHO, if you don't need to be there, is get the hell out of the area. Failing that, (you can't get out, you need to be there, or there are people you have to protect), then get to cover, wait for the congestion to clear, and THEN engage.

Seems like it'd be easier and safer to train all civilians to hit the deck when they hear gunfire. :D Edited by BigK

No, but my uncle had some really interesting stories about it.

And I thought that the bicycle cops had drawn the shortest straw... until I saw this "training exercise". I wonder how bad you have to screw up to be placed on that detail?

I guess they ran out of money before they could buy enough 2x4 to nail those target stand legs onto.

Here in Oak Ridge we have officers that volunteer to be bicycle cops.  They pushed for the program and even choose to right their own personal bikes.   One of them told about pulling over a car to write a ticket.

 I know bullets have a tendency to melt through car doors but i'd sure rather be hiding behind a car when bullets start flying than hoping the bullet would  hit one of the pipes those bicycle frames are made of! In all seriousness though, when there are big events going on in cities, bicycle are much more effective.
