A clear, polite request gives the person a chance to comply and reduces the chance of a fight.
Frage 15 von 20
Why should security officers change the times and routes of their patrols?
- So no one can predict when the officer will come by
- Because the same route is boring
- To shorten the patrol
- So the officer can skip checking some doors and windows
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: A. So no one can predict when the officer will come by
A predictable patrol is easy for a criminal to plan around. Varying the pattern makes patrols a stronger deterrent.

Frage 17 von 20
Which statement about a security uniform is true?
- It gives the officer the right to search anyone on the client's property
- It allows the officer to direct traffic on any public street
- It shows the officer works for the site, but it gives no police powers
- It allows the officer to hold people for questioning
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. It shows the officer works for the site, but it gives no police powers

- Pretending to be a police officer is a crime and can lead to lawsuits
- It makes incident reports harder to write
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. Pretending to be a police officer is a crime and can lead to lawsuits
Impersonating a law enforcement officer is a criminal offense. It also exposes the officer and employer to civil lawsuits.
Frage 20 von 20
In most situations, when may a private security officer look inside a person's bag?

- When the person agrees or it is a posted condition of entry
- Whenever the officer has a feeling about them
