Why do you wish to join the San Andreas Highway Patrol? Furthermore, what separates you from other candidates and makes you an asset compared to other applicants?
I want to join SAHP because I want to bring very fun and serious RP to the community as an officer of SAHP. I also want to free the streets of any criminals to make sure that the citizens of Lucid City are safe. I think I am different from other applicants because I can put in time and effort to being an officer for SAHP.
In your own words, explain what differentiates state law enforcement from local law enforcement, including jurisdictional concerns, and what duties you will expect to perform in the San Andreas Highway Patrol. Additionally, what other qualities do you believe sets the Highway Patrol apart from other agencies that operate in and around Lucid City?
The difference between SAHP and LSPD is SAHP is more about stopping crimes up north in the city such as highways leading up to Sandy Shores, and Paleto. For example if a robber is taking place in the city the first responders would be LSPD because they mostly work in the city. I feel like SAHP is more different from other law enforcement by the kindness everyone has on the force and also being serious in certain situations.
What is your priority in a situation - preservation of life (including a potential hostage situation) or catching those involved? Why?

While on patrol as a base-rank Trooper, you find yourself having a few negative run-ins with a Corporal after a minor issue on-duty that you felt was resolved. You feel that your disagreement with them goes beyond professional levels and that perhaps this corporal has a personal issue with you. How would you proceed in dealing with this issue, knowing that a Corporal is a supervisor-in-training and a superior rank to you?
I would talk to whoever has a personal issue with me and try to fix it as soon as possible. it is never a good thing to have negative energy in a workplace.
While on patrol as a Trooper, you respond to a pursuit of armed felons that just committed a murder. You strike a civilian vehicle in the pursuit. Neither vehicle is disabled and there are no injuries. How do you proceed?
If both vehicles are not disabled, I would ask them if they are okay and if they need any medical attention, once I find that they are okay I would tell the other officers and hopefully they can continue the chase.
While on patrol as a Trooper, you respond and arrive on-scene at a bank robbery at the Fleeca Bank on Great Ocean Highway. While setting up a perimeter and beginning to negotiate with the suspects inside, you receive notification of a panic alarm being activated from an LCPD officer. How would you respond?
I would try to negotiate to getting the hostage out unharmed and than go to the panic alarm and hope that there is enough officers to stay at the bank, and if not it wont matter because I already got the hostage out safely and an officers life is worth more than money being stolen.
While on patrol as a Trooper, you respond to a call of suspicious activity - possible narcotics trafficking - in the vicinity of Grove Street. You observe a heavily tinted vehicle exiting the scene as you arrive and decide to pull the vehicle over for a traffic stop. Potentially citing case law as well as reasonable suspicion and probable cause, what are you empowered to do, and what would you do to investigate? Additionally, if the vehicle were to flee immediately upon sight of you, how would that change things?
If I were to pull someone over who is potentially involved in narcotics trafficking, I would radio other officers to let them know what's going on, I would also give them a description of the vehicle. I would than proceed caution and ask the suspect or suspects to exit the vehicle and detain and explain to them that I would search them and their vehicle as we have a suspicion of possible narcotics trafficking, If the vehicle was to flee the scene that would give us more of a probable cause to pursue them of narcotics trafficking and hopefully we catch them.
Do you agree not to ask staff members and/or command staff to look at this application?
Yes
