Ask me a serious question.

If you are an adult - move out of your parents' home. Get a job and make your own way in life.

When police officers graduate the academy, do they go through a period where they are always with a more experienced officer, or are they trained enough to start off on their own?

Asked by Jacob over 11 years ago

New officers go through a period of on the job training called Field Training. Experienced officers with specialized training take new officers and teach them how to employ the things they learned at the academy in the real world. This is also a time when the new officer is closely watched in an effort to determine if they are a good officer/person or if they should be terminated because they are unfit for the job.

Hi I live in a small town with it's own police force. I want to show some thanks to them but I only see them driving by. They don't have any outreach programs. Is waving a good way to show thanks? Or will they think I'm flagging them down for help?

Asked by Robert over 11 years ago

Waving is a friendly gesture, and is appreciated. If they stop, it is a perfect opportunity to get to know the officer and tell them thank you.

Do unmarked cars usually have a way of showing that they are the police without full emergency lights? (For example, if they want people to see them if they need help.) Also, are there common instances where something like this is used?

Asked by Roger over 11 years ago

It varies from state to state.
