The Autism Hero Project Presents: A Simulated Traffic Stop Training for Officers & Autistic Drivers

Autism & Police Safety: Simulated Traffic Stop Training Every interaction between law enforcement and individuals on the autism spectrum is an opportunity for understanding, safety, and inclusion. This essential video showcases a powerful training collaboration between The Autism Hero Project and the Elgin Police Department. Its purpose is twofold: 1️⃣ To equip law enforcement with best practices for interacting with autistic drivers. 2️⃣ To prepare autistic individuals and families for what to expect during a real-life traffic stop. Filmed during The Autism Hero Project’s #HeroesUnite Autism Acceptance Event, this simulated traffic stop demonstrates how empathy, awareness, and proper training can build safer communities for all. 👮‍♂️ For Law Enforcement & Training Managers: This short module is designed to serve as a blueprint for conducting your own internal training simulations. You will learn: How to Set Up a Simulated Stop: A step-by-step guide on running an effective, low-stress training scenario. De-escalation and Communication: Techniques for recognizing non-typical reactions and using clear, concise language. Best Practices for Safety: Critical methods for ensuring the safety and comfort of both the officer and the autistic driver. 🚗 For Autistic Drivers & Caregivers: Use this video to demystify the traffic stop experience and reduce anxiety by knowing what is expected. You will see: The Officer’s Actions: A clear demonstration of the professional procedure and instructions you can expect to receive. Communication Tips: Guidance on how to best communicate your needs or neurodiversity during the stop. Preparing for the Unexpected: Visual examples of common police actions (e.g., asking for documents, approaching the car) to make the experience predictable.
