Physical control (Examples) consist of

• A. Verbal commands
• B. Neck restraints
• C. Hand empty hands like Strikes and takedowns
• D. Use of baton

Answer: (C)

Physical control means using your body to gain and maintain control of a subject without relying on weapons or verbal commands. Strikes and takedowns with empty hands are classic examples because they involve direct, contact-based actions that interfere with the subject’s balance and movement to bring them under control. Verbal commands are about communication and de-escalation, not physical contact. Neck restraints carry significant risk and are highly regulated or prohibited in many programs, so they aren’t considered standard physical control. Using a baton involves an instrument or tool, which is outside of empty-hand control. So, the best choice is the one that demonstrates direct, hand-to-hand actions used to physically control a person.
