Can You Name More Than 11 Out of the 100+ Standard Police Equipment Items?
When you’re traveling, there’s one group of people you want around, but not too close: the police. Think about it—when you’re waiting at customs before a flight to somewhere new, chances are you’ll see a K-9 unit scanning the crowd, working to keep passengers safe by sniffing out drugs or explosives. If you're driving across the country, it’s reassuring to see police cruisers patrolling the streets, ensuring everyone stays safe. After a big game, it's often an officer who helps guide the crowd out of the stadium. And if you’re stuck with a flat tire on a deserted highway, it’s a police officer who might pull over to offer help. Police officers juggle countless responsibilities with little time, and much like your local handyman, they rely on a wide range of tools to get the job done.
We've compiled a list of common gear you’ll find in a police officer’s toolkit—let’s see if you can name more than 11 of them!
