Oh you can't, not with one pair. I've seen my colleagues/other cops have to link 2 or 3 or 4 pairs of handcuffs together. Keeping in mind, when we have someone in custody, their safety is our concern and we are responsible for them. So depending on the type of squad car, I've actually seen obeasts just put in the back without cuffs, once they are "persuaded" into compliance. So fucking fat, they quite literally restrain themselves by filling up the back seat. It can be dangerous to put an obese person in cuffs, the limited range of motion can make it easy to injure themselves.

When I worked in corrections, we had to film the loading of obese inmates into the transfer van for insurance purposes. Officers would be shoulder deep in rotten swamp ass, pushing them into the van. Thankfully, I was the one to video tape it, never the one to push.
