Here the local p[olice(RNC) let some officers take their patrol cars home. We have just shy of about 150-200 vehicles on the force, and if you serve for I think 3 years or something and apply for it, they let you take the car home... RNC serves as provincial police to about 500000

Well, We have 6 K-9 units, each gets a SUV and the dog trainer keeps the dog and the truck until he retires or one dies.... Also only a few supervisors have take homes... they tend not to need the government paid vehicles, big $$ up here 
And most traffic units and detectives have take homes, because the government pays for gas and such... It's kinda sad to think that this is my tax dollars -.-

Lets not forget that many of these supervisors and detectives get older patrol cars that otherwise would've been sold after being replaced. So its not like they're getting brand new cars. At least thats the way I've seen it done.

Also some for cities... The Rule is that... The police put too many miles on the car. So they get new ones than driving them even more with more miles on them. What ever is the limit is set by the police.
Now many people think that the old crown vic at the fire stations gets are less used because they don't patrol around like the police one. So that no one think the fire don't need them because the don't patrol or high speed chases.

Depends on the country..
A typical police officer, dependent on duties may carry various equipment on their duty belt, to assist them in performing their duties.
The equipment carried typically includes some or all of the following (varies from country to country):
* Helmet/flat cap
* Handgun
* Spare ammunition
* body armor
* Radio or communications equipment and PDA.
* night stick/truncheon/baton.
* Restraints: handcuffs or Plasticuffs
* Notebook for recording incident information, taking down statements, etc
* Pencil or pen
* pepper spray, PAVA Spray or CS gas
* sidearm and tasers (in jurisdictions/countries where police are armed)
* Badge, Warrant card, or ID
* Evidence bags
* Flashlights
* Hi-visibility jacket or vest (doubles as a waterproof garment)
* latex gloves
Signature removed by staff after not complying to warning PM. You may replace this text with another signature providing that signature does not violate the signature rules (max size is 180 by 500 pixels and 450 kb).

LACoFD uses FIU for Fire Investigation Unit and every time I've seen that acronym used elsewhere, it's always been for the same. Usually staffed by the arson investigators or accelerant detection K9s.

I bet you would have to apply to the FBI Training School. Then you have to do the basic training like every FBI agent. Then they will subclass you to different training classes like being a driver... You can't go in right as a driver without FBI training or law enforcement training.

Better off seeing if you can be a State Diver Team... If you live a area where a Diver team is not needed. Some times the State will do it for locals... But if you live in New York City? Then you might able to find a job there.
You can see you can help your buddies the Coast Guard.

For example here in Italy the gloves are in leather they don't wear helmets, the handcuffs are in steel, the notebook is inside the patrol car ecc... it depends from the country as thossi69 saidDepends on the country..
