Physical Lag Times: The Use Of Deadly Force

[pitor]

Good article. But sadly civilians are not afforded the same level of review of expert panels. Nor is this perception time lags even factored in civilian defensive use of deadly force.

I'm certified as an expert here in N.J. in the use of force.
I've testified many times in front of a grand jury and had to explain action vs reaction. I've been able to do a pretty good job without getting in the science of it. We haven't had a need for that yet. This does a good job of explaining things as well.
I use Force Science News as a resource. This is good too. I will print it out and use it if necessary.
Thanks for posting

Welcome BlackKnight, glad someone can make use of the information. I find it relevant to understand and be able to articulate this type of information from the scientific community to dispel the myths that abound out there.

I also get the FS newsletters, worth reading all of their testing and conclusions.
