Some police anticrime strategies are proactive , in the sense that the police themselves
initiate them. This refl ects the police department's own sense of priorities.
Most drug enforcement, for example, is proactive. Other strategies are reactive , in
the sense that they occur in response to a citizen request for service. Citizen calls to report crimes involve a reactive police response.
Police learn about crimes through (1) citizen reports, (2) police offi cer on-view
observations, and (3) police-initiated investigations. The fi rst two are reactive
responses; the third is a proactive response.
A proactive patrol is out on the streets, looking to see if anything is happening. A reactive patrol waits for something to be reported, and then goes straight to investigate it.

Traditional policing is/was mainly reactive in nature. That is, police patrol the streets during their shift and react to what crimes and/or infractions are being committed. They also, of course, respond to dispatch calls of crimes in progress. Crime prevention is achieved through mere police presence. Negative interaction between the community and police is generally the norm.

We talk about Reactive Police Agency when the police respond to specific requests from individuals/groups in the community which encompasses immediate response to calls and follow-up investigations. The Proactive Police Agency is when the police are acting on their own initiative, in order to develop information about crime as well as strategies for suppression. For example, a police officer reactively responding to a dispatched call could, nonetheless, resolve the issue proactively by mediating between the parties or using informal action. Similarly, in contrast to routine patrol, the directed patrol involves officers being instructed to monitor specific areas that are identified through problem/crime analysis when they are not responding to dispatch calls. Directed patrol is more proactive than random preventative patrol, but it still lacks the component of problem oriented policing that engages the community in resolving crime issues. Also proactive policing results in more arrests, detention and filing of reports than reactive policing.
