Recently just started watching UK PD, it comes on BBC America on Monday night. It's very interesting seeing the difference in policing between here and the UK. For example:
They say: get on the floor instead of get on the ground.
They handcuff suspects hands in the front.
Few officers carry firearms, most just a tazer at most.
They drive BMW 3 or 5 series both marked and unmarked, and some VW hatchback, maybe a VW golf, most of those are unmarked.
It's not marajuana, it's cannabis.
It's not a K9 it's a police dog
When they pull somebody over who runs, they don't do a felony stop like we do, they just come up to the car, open the door and pull the person out and handcuff them.
They aren't drunk drivers, they are drink drivers.
