Codes and Signals used By law enforcement

[howellnl]

Does anyone know if there is a list of the signals used by the law enforcement such as signal three?

Yes, there are such lists, but you need to be more specific for us to help you get the list you need. There are different lists for various departments, so let us know which ones you are interested in.

For example, the following link will give you the codes for the Alabama Department of Public Safety:

Thank you! I'm really looking for a list of the signals used by Mobile and Baldwin County Deputies they use the Ten codes also but they have started using the signals a lot lately. For example, signal 50, 40 , 3 those are the most common we hear and we have no idea what they are. Any help would be greatly appericated!

Ooooh, better be careful using that one, lest the HIPAA monster come and getcha! :lol:

Many agencies have their own codes for this. You can use codes, you just can't flat out say over the air that the patient is HIV positive. Luckily, I haven't been in a situation to have to use it.
