In LASD communication, what does 10-31 indicate?

  1. REQUEST UNIT AND CHANNEL

  2. REQUEST EMERGENCY CLEARANCE

  3. SUBJECT IS WANTED FOR A TRAFFIC WARRANT

  4. PROPERTY REPORTED STOLEN

The correct answer is: REQUEST UNIT AND CHANNEL

The code 10-31 in LASD communication refers to a request for a unit and channel to be established for communication purposes. It is critical in emergency situations where coordination among multiple units is necessary. This equipment and personnel redundancy ensures that all responding parties have adequate communication lines open, facilitating a more organized response to incidents. Establishing a clear communication channel is vital for the safety and efficiency of operations, especially in situations that may require immediate action or involve multiple responders. The other options do relate to important notifications and statuses that officers may communicate, but they do not reflect the specific meaning of 10-31, which is centered around establishing necessary communication setups.
