Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
There is no minimum standard. It depends on the size of the building and the needs of the agency. It may have dozens of rooms with lots of specialized spaces or just a single desk.
I do not know what the age of majority is in Arkansas. You should probably contact the local law enforcement agency.
Oh, and "close enough" is not a legal term that will be recognized by a court or law enforcement officer.
I have no experience with Austrailian law.
It very well may affect your future employment. All actions have consequences, and the decisions we make - good and bad - will follow us throughout life.

It depends on the laws of your state. If I understand your question, it is legal for one officer to issue a citation based on another officer's observations (in at least some states - if not all states.)
Sounds great. However, I do not understand what you are asking when you state "Is there anything that might pop up in police screening?" as a follow up to the prior question. If you could rephrase the question, I will answer it the best I can.
It sounds like you should talk to a local police officer or deputy sheriff. If you do not want to talk to someone in law enforcement, call 211 for a referral to non-law enforcement assistance. If you are feeling suicidal, please call 1-800-273-8255.
