The regulations in this document follow the principles of the rule of law and are drafted as a means of guidance through clearly established protocols, for the purposes of upholding the professional standards and reputation of the Vice City Police Department.
The integrity of the Vice City Police Department is determined by the actions and conduct of its personnel. These regulations are to be followed at all times by the officers working for this department, ensuring proper conduct while conducting their duties at all times. The community's perception of the Vice City Police Department is also determined by the actions and competence of our personnel in the field. These regulations put public trust at the front and centre of the operations of the VCPD.
These procedures are drafted as guidelines to promote discipline and efficiency in our service to the public. They are not intended to create a higher standard than those imposed by law. Further reference can be made to the VCPD's General Information, which outlines how an officer should present themselves, and relates directly to these regulations. Given it is impossible to outline every possible situation that may happen or to explain a specific method of action in any scenario, especially given the fluid and rapidly changing nature of the job and of any situation, all personnel are expected to exercise common sense and discretion in the field.
Ultimately, the regulations and general information are designed as a guide to consistently do right by the community, putting safety, legality, and ethics at the forefront of the job. This is a live document, subject to change, and evolves based on our community's needs.
While the Vice City Police Department is a law enforcement agency empowered to enforce the law, undertaking those duties is not possible without community support. It is imperative every officer represents the true image of this department when undertaking their duties. Integrity, impartiality, dedication and honour are the core values of the Vice City Police Department and the guiding principles for every officer. Protocol and tradition are the metal from which every cop in this city is forged. Departmental personnel are required to uphold these standards at all times, on and off duty, especially when interacting with fellow citizens. All federal, state, and local agencies and their respective personnel should also be treated with the same courtesy and respect.
Integrity: The culture of police integrity is essential in building mutual respect between the people and the Department. The Vice City Police Department is committed to ensuring that its officers operate within their legal authority and bounds, professionally and ethically, consistent with the law and the community's expectations of their police.
Impartiality: Police officers of the Vice City Police Department are expected, by rule and by law, to make decisions based on facts and objectivity, and to prevent subjective judgment from hindering their perspective.
Dedication: Dedication is a must in every representative of the Vice City Police Department. Officers are expected to display their commitment to serving the people at all times.

Guidelines and Information / Re: VICE CITY POLICE DEPARTMEN...
Last post by Mark Stevens - Jul 24, 2024, 06:24 AMTHE SCALE OF FORCE:
The Scale of Force is a scale regulating where and when different levels of force are used. Without a scale of force, excessive force usage can become a serious problem. To prevent such, force is regulated, in order for the appropriate amount of force to be used where and when appropriate.
The Scale of Force:
Level 1 - Officer Presence
When a marked officer is present, it's often enough to stop a crime in progress or prevent most situations from escalating. Without saying a word, the mere presence of marked personnel can deter crime through mere presence. At this level, officers should act non-threatening and professional. This "zero" level of force is always the best way to resolve any situation if possible.
Level 2 - Verbal Command
Using verbal commands is another way to prevent a situation. If you see something suspicious or a potential threat, such as someone harassing a lady, walking up and asking "Do we have a problem here?", "Move aside, leave this woman alone.", or the likes can draw people away. Raising your voice, being assertive and standing your ground as a policeman can help to prevent situations escalating.
Level 3 - Empty Hand Techniques
There are two types of empty hand techniques. Soft hand, and hard hand. Soft handed techniques are used when physical intervention is required while minimal force is required. Soft Hand Techniques are guiding, holding, and restraining -- applying pressure points, and takedown techniques that have a minimal chance of injury.
Hard hand techniques involve larger amounts of force, such as punches, kicks and blocking tactics. Hard Hand Techniques are used when a person is getting physical and is failing to comply with police directions. This also applies when a fight is breaking out and security are required to intervene against two aggressive people.
Level 4 - Non-Lethal Force
Non-Lethal Force is used when higher levels of force are required while not escalating to a lethal scale. This involves the usage of pepper spray, aluminum batons, and tasers. Pepper spray is really only effective against those who are sober and are not intoxicated or on narcotics. Batons are useful in most cases where extra force is needed.
However, tasers are the most effective. Tasers discharge a high voltage spark (50,000 volts) at very low amperage. A taser fires two small darts, connected to wires, which drops a suspect at a non-contact distance. These devices are easy to carry, are lightweight and affordable and no extensive training is required. Tasers may be more effective on persons under the influence of drugs that may not respond to chemical irritants. However, a taser should be avoided unless necessary, as they're not a go-to solution whenever force is required. Improper use is considered assault and criminal charges can be pressed.
Level 5 - Lethal Force
Lethal force is used when there is a threat to your own or a civilian's life. Lethal force includes the usage of firearms, which may kill a person. Lethal force is an absolute last resort and any improper use can result in homicide charges.

Guidelines and Information / Re: VICE CITY POLICE DEPARTMEN...
Last post by Mark Stevens - Jul 23, 2024, 08:29 AMDEPARTMENTAL RANK STRUCTURE:
CHIEF OF POLICE:
The Chief of Police (CoP) is the highest-ranking officer in the Vice City Police Department. The Chief of Police is responsible for the planning, efficient administration and operation of the VCPD. The Chief of Police acts as the chief executive of the police department, with complete control over its functions, operations, structure, and staff. Everything in the department is forwarded to the Chief for review and acceptance.
The VCPD Chief of Police acts on all matters related to disciplinary issues and recommends awards for exemplary conduct of the department's employees. The Chief supervises the respective divisions and sections of the VCPD and is responsible for ensuring they are well-staffed and operational.
The VCPD Chief assumes a leadership role in planning, coordinating and directing all activities of the Vice City Police Department and is overall in charge of the entire department, supervising it and facilitating its effective operation.
DEPUTY CHIEF OF POLICE:
The Deputy Chief of Police is second in charge of the entire department, serving under the Chief of Police. The Deputy Chief reports directly to the Chief, supervises day-to-day operations in the department, and primarily oversees much of the department's administrative affairs. The Deputy Chief takes charge in the absence of the Chief of Police.
As the second-highest-ranking officer in the VCPD, reporting directly to the Chief of Police, the Deputy Chief is primarily responsible for the same oversight, supervision and duties as the Chief of Police, serving as a trusted adviser and fellow leader of the department.
The VCPD Deputy Chief of Police assists the Chief in acting on all matters related to disciplinary issues and awards for exemplary conduct, as well as playing a major role in the effective operation and leadership of the Vice City Police Department.
ASSISTANT CHIEF OF POLICE:
Assistant Chiefs act as leaders of the department, typically assigned to a specific area of the department. Assistant Chiefs might be assigned to oversee the Field Operations Division, Criminal Investigations Division, or the Administration Division. They hold the Majors and Commanders of each unit/detail to account, ensuring the effective operation of their division's respective sub-sectors.
As the third highest-ranking officer in the Vice City Police Department, the Assistant Chief of Police is primarily responsible for the same oversight, supervision and duties as the Chief of Police, serving as a trusted adviser and fellow leader of the department, typically in overseeing a specific division of the department as a right-hand man to the Deputy Chief responsible for that division.
The VCPD Assistant Chief assists the Chief and Deputy Chiefs in acting on all matters related to disciplinary issues and awards for exemplary conduct.
The Assistant Chief also plays a major role in the effective operation and leadership of the Vice City Police Department, assisting with both an overall departmental oversight as well as more specifically tailored duties that correspond to their assignments and specialized skills.
MAJOR:
As the fourth highest-ranking officer in the Vice City Police Department, the Major is primarily responsible for the leadership, oversight, supervision and duties of a specific section of the department (i.e. S.O.S.).
Majors assist the Chief of Police, Deputy Chiefs and Assistant Chiefs in acting on all matters related to disciplinary issues and awards for exemplary conduct as is consistent with the duties of all Upper Command Staff.
Majors also play a significant role in the effective operation and leadership of the VCPD, assisting primarily with specifically tailored leadership duties that correspond to their assignments and specialized skills, typically assigned as commanding officers of a specific sub-section of the department's three main divisions. Majors primarily ensure that their section fulfils its designated functions, usually with the aid of the Commanders serving as assistant commanding officers of the unit.
COMMANDER:
As the fifth highest-ranking officer in the Vice City Police Department and the introductory Upper Command Staff rank, Commanders are primarily responsible for the assistant leadership, oversight, supervision and duties of a specific section of the department (i.e. S.O.S.).
VCPD Commanders assist the Chief of Police, Deputy Chiefs, Assistant Chiefs and Majors in acting on all matters related to disciplinary issues and awards for exemplary conduct as is consistent with the duties of all Upper Command Staff personnel.
The Commander also plays a major role in the effective operation and leadership of the VCPD, assisting primarily with specifically tailored leadership duties that correspond to their assignments and specialized skills, typically as assistant commanding officers of a departmental sub-section. As Assistant COs, Commanders are responsible to their division's Major and may take a divisional leadership role in the absence of the Commanding Officer. They lead day-to-day operations, oversee the Captains and Lieutenants who make up the VCPD Command, and are the first rank within the VCPD's Upper Command Staff. The Commander's role is important, as they work closest with the officers in the field and coordinate operations.
Commanders+ are VCPD Upper Command.
