What does "out of vehicle, subject to call" imply?

Officer is on foot and available for communication
Officer is driving and cannot communicate
Officer has stopped for a break
Officer is escorting a prisoner

The correct answer is: Officer is on foot and available for communication

The phrase "out of vehicle, subject to call" indicates that the officer is on foot and is still reachable for communication purposes. This status usually means that the officer may be engaged in activity that requires them to be out of their patrol vehicle, such as speaking to citizens, conducting foot patrols, or handling calls for service on foot. However, the term "subject to call" confirms that even though they are not in their vehicle, they remain available to respond to radio communications and can return to their vehicle if necessary. This status is important as it communicates to dispatch and other units that the officer is actively engaged outside of their vehicle but continues to maintain a level of readiness to respond to calls or emergencies.
