Free Police Officer Written Exam Practice Test Question and Answer

Here's a free police exam practice question that you may encounter during the police written test. Make sure that you read the scenario base question carefully before selecting your answer. Also use good common sense to come up with the correct answer.

You are dispatched to a domestic dispute between a husband and a wife located at 23 south Pennsylvania street. Upon your arrival, you notice two other officers there on scene engaged in a physical confrontation with the male half. You quickly walk towards them to assist, but the wife starts going berserk calling you a "pig." You ignore her and continue advancing toward the two officers to help. The wife becomes increasingly louder, and whips out a broken beer bottle and take a swipe at you with it.

What you should you do next?

A. disengage the situation until backup arrives
B. unholster your handgun and shoot the wife
C. Dodge every attempted swipe made by the wife
D. Retrieve your non-lethal weapon, taser and stun the wife until she drops the bottle

Explanation:

The correct answer in this scenario is D. Police officers are trained to control and subdue any individual that pose immediate threat to self or others. In this case, the wife shows clear indications that she wanted to cause harm to you, and maybe the other two officers, who were already preoccupied with the husband. As a result, you must take immediate action, and retrieve your departmental approved taser and stun her until she drops the weapon.

Your course of action should not change just because the combatant is a female. In this instance you should not select answer A as backup may take too long, plus you'll leave the other officers there to fend for themselves. Answer B is not correct as you have other less lethal options available to you, and answer C is just not tactically sound.
