I have a quick question for those of you with take-home units........it stems from the story on the home page with regards to the off-duty deputy who was involved in a vehicle pursuit.
In the article, it mentioned his child was in the back of the squad car. Does your department (yes, I know it varies by dept..but would like to see the differences between dept. policy) allow for you to use their vehicle for off-duty 'business'...(personal errands, etc.)?
I would imagine the biggest stink behind this officer getting involved in the pursuit was his child being in the back seat.
Sooooooo.......are take-home units allowed to be used for other business other than duty-work? If so, when off-duty and an incident occurs are you expected by your dept. to respond specifically because you are in a squad car?
