Unless there is a reason to call for a back-up, CHP officers initiate traffic stops without using any specific radio code. If an officer feels s/he needs to let someone know they are making a stop, they will simply state they are making a stop at a specific location. Generally speakiing, the only way radio knows an officer is on a stop is when the officer requests a check for CDL, registration, etc.

When I was working, I long fought for radio traffic to initiate a stop, but those recommendations have always fallen on deaf ears.

"Car stop".

The "official" code is 909

Our Motors are like that. In fact, I was told by a patrol deputy that if a Motor put out a stop, it was because he was impounding the vehicle. Otherwise they don't peep.

Thats true for us. We usually work in a spot with several motors so we dont put it out unless something is unusual or we do end up being by ourselves. We make so many stops during the day that if we put every stop on the air we would kill our dispatchers.

11-49, 11-86 would be "special detail" to me.

Wow.......guess admin has never learned the lessons from fallen officers.......

I beat it into my trainees heads to ALWAYS put out a traffic/ped/bike stop...either other the air, or via the mdt.....

[LA DEP]

The "official" code is 909

but who actually uses it????:D

[mdrdep]

I know, one of the trainees entered 909P the other day had me scratching my head. Lo and behold it's a ped stop :confused: My peers just laugh and tell the kids, "Don't you smile he's forgotten more about police work than you've been taught". I always make sure I thank them for making me feel so old and decrepit................

[IMachU]

We use the 909/909P as clearance codes, but on the radio it's "traffic stop," "ped stop," etc.

[nebraska_deputy]

Most Nebraska agencies use 10-52. The Nebraska State Patrol has started to use 10-82.

[1oldsarge]

I guess this is why the Feds want all agencies to go to Plain Talk instead of codes.
We sent some troops up to the Bay area years back after the Loma Prieta earthquake; they went to a cafe, and used the code we used for meal break down here. They heard many sirens, and the cops rushed in. It was the code they used up there for "Officer Needs Help"...

[sotzo]

11-95 for regular
11-96 for high risk

[kcr]

11-94 ped stop
11-95 Car stop
11-96 out on a parked vehicle
