Roadside cops are still psychologists. Sometimes they can recognize in a stopped driver a person who drank alcohol the day before, or even something more serious, not only through dialogue, but also through gestures and even facial expressions. With details – the portal “AvtoVzglyad”.
Communication between people can be verbal and non-verbal. If in the first case we are talking about a conversation, then in the second case it is only about body language and facial expressions. Moreover, traffic officers often pay extra attention to the latter. And here’s why.
A person prone to cheating often gives themselves away through looks, gestures, and attitudes. It is not for nothing that psychologists believe that non-verbal communication has a much more effective effect on people. So law enforcement officers use a similar method of communicating with drivers to spot a potential offender in them. And especially the “customer” who drank the day before.
After questions from the series ‘how do you feel’, ‘have you been drinking for a long time’, the inspector closely monitors the reaction of the driver, who can arouse suspicion with one clumsy gesture. For example, drivers trying to evade law enforcement officers often begin to scratch the tip of their noses with their fingers, rub their ear lobes, or straighten their hair. At this time, the inspector of the traffic police understands that the nerves of the “mate” are not in vain – it would be necessary to check.
In addition, in an attempt to hide something from the police, drivers often begin to gesticulate chaotically, pick their pockets or reach for certain objects. Usually for the phone. But not to call someone or film a dialogue with a traffic cop on camera. The reason is simple: holding hands, which directly indicates that the driver is under stress.
A sign for an extra check by the pilot can be troubled eyes, but also biting lips, fingertips or nails. In addition, for fear of “breathing”, the hands will try to cover their mouths during a dialogue with the peace officer. Psychotherapists also view this behavior as an attempt to subconsciously hide a lie.
And possible offenders are also expressed by a look that is not directed at the inspector during communication. Meanwhile, the reluctance to face the interlocutor is considered an expression of fear or shame.
