This is helpful thanks for replying so quick! I figured your mod didn't affect the driving of the backup but was wondering if this was a common accident for others. Its probably not related to the mod thats just when I started noticing the issue most likely.
 
Yeah I removed the pistol and they went straight to tasers only. Its probably something with ultimate backup. They behave differently from my Swat/tactical backup wich only respond with long guns. HRT and SRT tend to respond like regular patrol officers with pistols mixed in. I will play with it some more. I thought of adding HRT SRT to swat and noose backup options and seeing if that changed anything. 
 
These are small details anyways, I Really enjoy the mod!

Every unit has the same chances of spawning a pistol and rifle, but you can try removing the pistol (handgun) section from HRT and SRT and see if that changes anything. I think the way ultimate backup is coded is that the unit would only switch to the taser if currently using a pistol.
 
As for backup driving like crazy, I have no idea. My modification does not change or alter driving, but I suggest trying out ClearTheWayV and ensuring the setting everyone ignore player is disabled in simple trainer. Sometimes if the setting everyone ignores player is enabled, it would break the NPCs by either stopping completely while driving or drive erratically.
