This is the exact same text wich is on the ARPD forums, but we as N.T.F. follow the same codes and procedures as the ARPD.
1. Routine Checking
Situation: You stop an average vehicle, to check the driver's license
1) You stop behind or in front of the pulled over vehicle.
2) You must report your status on radio [traffic stop at "place", code "number"] .
3) You walk next to the vehicle, don't ask the civilian to leave his car, unless you think
he might be dangerous.
4) You greet him, depending on what the time is, then you start the checks.
-Ask him to stop his engine / your own safety, if he tries to getaway, he must turn on
his engine
-Then you ask for his license
If he has no license, you must inform him where and from whom he can get license
-Once you have checked his license, and ONLY if you think he is suspicious, you can continue the
check with a body search.
#Searching Clothes:Ask the civilian to empty his pockets, and put everything on the PD
car's bonet. The civilian must empty their pockets for your own safety,
in case they have any sharp objects/weapons.
Order the civilian to face to the PD car, or to his own car or to a wall.
Then order him to put his hands in the air, or to the car's roof. [/hail]
[because we don't have /frisk command yet, ask the player, if should you find
anything illegal on him.]
When you finished the searching, ask him to put his hands down.
-If you still think he is suspicious, you can continue the checks with vehicle searching.
#Vehicle Searching: Start the vehicle searching with looking into the boot, usually, citizens
hide their illegal substances/objects there. So ask the citizen to open the boot.
Then you can continue with checking the car inside. When you do that, ask
the civilian to stand next to you, so he can't say later on, that you placed the incriminating
object/s there if you find something.
-When you finished the routine checking, say good bye and he can go.
2. Pursuit
Situation: When you try to pull over a vehicle, and the citizen refuses to stop.
1) You must report your status on radio (I'm in pursuit at [place], vehicle is a [vehicle type], code [number])
2) You have to force the vehicle to stop. You can make him pull over with ramming his vehicle, or asking
to set up road blocks.
3) Drive by if:
*The suspects vehicle is much faster then the police cars
*The suspect is dangerous to the public with his driving.
*The suspect is reached the highest wanted level. (cop killing)
Please note: Only the lead unit in a pursuit should update the pursuits location / situation. If you are the lead unit and get taken over by another unit stop transmitting and let the lead unit transmit. Otherwise the radio will get too confusing with unnecessary reports.
3. Shots Fired
Situation: Somebody opened fire at the officer
1) In this situation return fire immediately, for self-defence reasons.
2) When you are in cover, and you have time, report your status on radio (shots fired code 30 at [place])
/ in this situation the nearest officers must give backup immediately /
3) If the suspect is heavily armed, try to find cover behind your car or somewhere, and wait for the back
up force to arrive.
4. Making Arrest
Situation: The suspect gave up, and his hands in the air
1) Go behind the suspect, and put cuffs on his hands
2) Tell him, you are under arrest and tell the reason.
3) Report your status on radio
4) If the suspect complains (abused/self-defence) read up the Miranda rights, then take him
to the PD but do NOT jail him, try to investigate what actually happened.
5)Put the suspect inside the Police car (or other transporting vehicle) , make him/her to sit on the
back passanger seat, right side. An other officer must sit next to the suspect behind the driver,
so we can avoid the attacks against the car driver.
5. Jailing Process
Situation: The suspect is cuffed and arrested, inside the police station
1) Take the suspect to the checking room.
2) Do clothes searching.
[try to find official papers at him/her to find identity - passport, license]
3) If you found weapons, drugs or other evidences..
take them away and lock it to the safe at the main desk. [just rp]
If you found passport or license, hold it at yourself.
(If the suspect is carrying weed or heroin in inventory, ask the suspect to give it to you and later contact to
a chief and give it to him.)
4) Take the suspect to questioning. [any room]
[try to find out who is he/she, why was he/she suspected, why did he/she committed crime..]
5) Read up the Miranda rights, and start the questioning of the suspect.
After that, you been made sure the crime is valid, take the suspect to the cells.
Note: The jailing process can NOT be skipped, except if there's not enough units on the streets,
and the crime rate is high in the state.
3. Police radio usage/codes
When you go on duty, after you set the correct channel on your radio, you have to
report the 10-8 [on service] .
form:
[rank] [name/surname], unit [number], 10-8
example:
Chief Rafferty, unit 15, 10-8.
After that you can chose how you do the patrolling.
City Patrol with car, or on foot. [LS,LV,SF]
Highway patrol. [Country side/free ways]
(always wear the correct uniform to your patrol)
When you start patrolling, you have to report yourself in with your partners.
The point of the reporting in before start patrol, to let know the senior team,
the dispatchers, and the other units... who is patrolling together [in the same car].
form:
[Driver's unit no.]And[Operator's unit no.]Back seat[Additional unit's no.]
example:
15A21B2 reporting in.
After that if you patrolling with car, you have to report car number and sitrep.
Sit-rep - where are you, what are you doing.
The car number stands from the Driver's and from the Operator's number.
Later on while patrolling, you don't have to report the additional unit,
only the car number.
Operator - officer on the front passenger seat, using the megaphone, radio and checking
the Mobil Data Computer (mdc - tab, /area, map) frequently.
form:
[Car number] [sit-rep]
example:
15A21 on patrol at LS, Currently Idlewood.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reports:
Only the Senior team [Captain and above] and the dispatchers have the right
to approve reports. The normal patrols are allowed to respond only for requests.
example:
1.
unit 21: 15A21 is doing traffic stop at LS Verona Beach, code 4.
Captain: 10-4
//other units are not allowed to do affirmation//
2.
unit 21: 15A21 shots fired at Verona Beach, code 30.
unit 42: 10-4, 10-76 with code 3.
unit 38: roger, on my way.
//because this is a request, the normal patrols can respond//
GENERAL CODES:
The General Codes are meant to inform the other patrols about the gravity of the situation, use them at the end of the report.
Example: "This is Unit 5, There is a 211 in Ganton, Code 3, over."
TEN CODES:
Ten-codes, properly known as ten signals, are code words used to represent common phrases in voice communication, particularly by law enforcement.
While "ten codes" were intended to be a terse, concise, and standardized system, the proliferation of different meanings has rendered it useless for situations where people from different agencies and jurisdictions need to communicate. For this reason the Argonath Police Divisions use a Universal Ten-Codes system
Example: "This is Unit 5, There is a 10-51 in Downtown, Code 2, over."
HUNDRED CODES:
The Hundred Code is a 3 digit police code system. This code is usually pronounced with a Spelling Alphabet reading off like "One Eight Seven".
Example: This is Unit 5, There is a 187 ("One Eight Seven") in Idlewood, Code 3, over.
There are different kind of police codes for police radio, to make the messages shorter. The codes below are based on the Los Angeles Police Department codes and are used in SAPD police communication also.
Additional codes:
-Red: Situation in progress, actions must be taken as soon as possible.
-Blue: Have information about situation, actions can be wait till further orders.
General codes:
Code 1 - Acknowledge this call (respond of any requests like code 2 or code 3, means message received responding to call)
Code 2 - Proceed immediately without siren (some speeding allowed, but you have to keep the major traffic rules)
Code 3 - Proceed immediately with lights and siren (you have to get to location asap, but always keep before eyes the pulic safety)
Code 4 - No further assistance required
Code 10 - Bomb threat [RED/BLUE]
Code 14 - Return to normal operations
Code 30 - Officer in danger, needs assistance (do not use this code for normal back up request)
Code Purple - Serious gang activity [RED/BLUE]
Ten codes:
10-0 - Caution

10-7 - Out of service
