If a caller reports an injury in a traffic crash, which signal would most likely apply?

• A. Vehicle Accident - Injuries
• B. Information to Officer
• C. Illegal Parking
• D. Robbery in Progress - Residential

Answer: (B)

This item focuses on how information about an incident is relayed to responders. When a caller reports an injury in a traffic crash, the caller is providing details to the dispatcher for the responding officer rather than classifying the event as a specific crash category to be acted on automatically. The signal that matches this flow of information—passing details to the officer on scene—is Information to Officer. The other options describe a specific incident type or a completely different crime and don’t fit the situation of conveying injury details to an officer responding to a crash.
