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.
No idea - I didn't work at one of those departments.
I would sincerely hope that people were not promoted based on a test score, but when you mix government and unions and there is rarely any room for common sense.
Promotion should be based on ability. Most tests are only analyzing a person's ability to memorize a set of facts.

For what? Walking in public?
If you were intoxicated to the point of being charged with something it is unlikely the officers would have dropped you off at home.
Share Answer: 
The best bet is to call your local police recruiter and talk to him or her about the specific requirements in your area. Generally, you apply for the position, undergo a thorough background investigation, go through a series of mental, physical and medical tests and then complete academy training.
