A call requesting information to assist an officer in the field would use which signal?

• A. Vehicle Accident - Involves Fire/City Vehicle
• B. Robbery in Progress - Carjacking
• C. Information to Officer
• D. Animal Call

Answer: (C)

In this type of signaling system, there are different signals for different kinds of communications. When you need to pass information to an officer in the field to help them handle a situation, you use the Information to Officer signal. It’s designed for sharing details that improve situational awareness—things like descriptions, locations, or updates—that don’t by themselves request a new response but support the officer already out there.

The other signals are tied to specific events that require a response or action, such as a vehicle crash, an active crime in progress, or an animal-related issue. Those are about initiating or coordinating a response to an incident, not simply delivering helpful information to an officer. So the call described—requesting information to assist an officer—best fits Information to Officer.
