Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. If they allow it, they will describe the process.

Are police officers trained in emergency vehicle driving as part of their academy training? Or are they only trained if they will be driving a police car?

Asked by Jet over 11 years ago

I would imagine most states require police officers to receive emergency vehicle operation training in the academy.

My DUI trial was postponed 5 times. The cop didn't show on the 5th and I was in detox which my lawyer forgot to mention resulting in a warrant so it was clearly scheduled. Why would he not have shown and what are his chances of showing to the next?

I don't know; I am not a mind reader. It is possible that the court has failer to subpoena him/her properly. He/She might be out on medical leave. (etc, etc, etc) It seems to me that the real question should be why can't your defense attorney tell you what's going on?

I have a video message saved on my phone of a ex friend threatening to hurt me. If I go to the police to submit a report would my phone be taken away ?

Asked by girl22 over 11 years ago
