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.

How long of a meal break did you get during your career?

Asked by mike almost 12 years ago

It varies from department to department.  One agency allowed for a 30 minute break, while another allowed for 45 minutes.  Of course, you were still subject to calls during these breaks.

Another question is, can I report license number if I see somebody texting?

Also, when a person is driving in a poor manner (e.g. speeding and moving from lane to lane with no care of those around him/her).

Asked by Irene Judith Hernandez over 11 years ago

Asked by anomyous almost 12 years ago

You should contact the local police department.  I am not an active officer, nor is this a law enforcement agency.  Dial 911 if there is a true emergency.
