Why is communication important in the police force?

Answer 1

Without the ability to communicate with each other, officers would not know how to tactically respond to serious calls. Radios allow officers to plan their deployments prior to arriving at the scene of such violent incidents as robberies, hostage-taking, explosions, etc. Additionally, officers update each other as the response goes on. They relay suspect descriptions, new information, locations, evidence, etc., to each other. Without tactical communications, officers would respond blindly to violent calls and would not know what the others are doing.

Answer 2

•Communication is an important role in law enforcement because police officers encounter people of different race, cultures, ages, and ethnicities.
