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.

I am trying to get in a police academy in Florida.I have read that traffic violation do not DQ you from getting accepted but i am wondering.I have 4 traffic citations. 3 speeding and 1 from my brakes failing in a wreck but he put following close

Asked by Johnny about 12 years ago

You can probably still enter an academy, but it will be difficult to get a department to hire you.  Three speeding citations and an at-fault accident is a fairly significant indicator of poor driving.  Few agencies would want to put an officer into a patrol car for 40+ hours a week and expose themselves to the potential liability of his or her foreseeable bad driving.

As time passes, the citations become less of a problem for getting hired.  For example, two years since the last citation looks like you have improved your driving.  Five years looks even better.  Different departments will have different guidelines based on the agency's risk tolerance.

Okay I guess I should tell my parents. But when I do, what's the next step? I mean I more concerned about them than me. I understand what it means to drink. Does what they are doing violate "Social Host" laws?

Asked by Julian almost 12 years ago

I don't know what a 'social host' law is.  However, your parents should be able to provide you guidance on what you should and should not do.  Good luck.
