What does the dodge or wrap around exercise involve?

The dodge or wrap around exercise involves an officer leaving the cover of their cruiser, which allows them to move to a position where they can effectively engage a target while minimizing exposure. This tactic requires the officer to be aware of their surroundings and use the available cover to their advantage while quickly maneuvering to either flank or re-position themselves. The intention behind this exercise is to enhance the officer's ability to navigate on the move while maintaining a tactical advantage in a potentially dangerous situation.

While maintaining their position behind cover and using a vehicle for protection are important aspects of overall officer safety, they do not specifically pertain to the concept of dodging or wrapping around a point of cover. Retiring to a safer location may be relevant in other contexts but does not describe the active movement and engagement implied in the dodge or wrap around technique.
