Police Sergeant Exam Questions and Answers
The questions in the Police Sergeants’ and Inspectors’ Exam will all focus on your understanding of the law, and how to correctly apply it. You will learn these fundamental principles during the training that takes place prior to the examination.
Each question will provide you with a passage of sorts, which describes a fictional incident. Your task is then to answer the questions following the passage, using knowledge of legislation and law. The questions will be multiple choice, and you’ll be given a choice of four answer options – of which you must select only one.
Now, let’s look at some sample questions!
POLICE SERGEANTS’ AND INSPECTORS EXAM SAMPLE QUESTION
Below we’ve included a sample question, similar to the type of question you’d encounter in the real examination. Read through the passage carefully and see if you can get the right answer.
SAMPLE EXAM QUESTION
Lewis has recently purchased his own golf buggy. He invites his friend Benjamin round, to take the golf buggy for a drive. In their desire to have fun, the two get increasingly reckless with their driving. Lewis mounts the curb, and strikes a young man – named Kevin. Kevin is knocked to the ground, and dies at the scene. Benjamin tells Lewis not to worry – he claims that Lewis cannot have committed the offence of causing death by dangerous driving, as the golf buggy is a mechanically propelled vehicle, and not a motor vehicle. Lewis disagrees with him. In this instance, which of the two is correct?
ANSWER CHOICE: A
Benjamin is correct. In regards to the offence of causing death by dangerous driving (contrary to s. 1 of the Road Traffic Act 1988), Lewis cannot be held liable for the offence – as this offence does not apply to mechanically propelled vehicles, such as Lewis’s golf buggy.
ANSWER CHOICE B
This course is designed to help you LEARN more and be more PREPARED. Preparation is key to your success throughout the police constable/officer selection process and this course provides everything you need.
ANSWER CHOICE: C
Both Benjamin and Lewis are correct. Although Lewis can be held liable for the offence of causing death by dangerous driving (contrary to s. 1 of the Road Traffic Act 1988) – as this offence includes the driving of mechanically propelled vehicles, such as Lewis’s golf buggy, it would need to be proved that Lewis acted with deliberate intent to maim, injure or kill Kevin. In this instance, Kevin was killed by accident.
ANSWER CHOICE D
Neither of them are correct. Although Lewis cannot be held liable for the offence of causing death by dangerous driving (contrary to s. 1 of the Road Traffic Act 1988) – as this offence does not include the driving of mechanically propelled vehicles, such as Lewis’s golf buggy, Lewis can be charged with the offence of driving a mechanically propelled vehicle outside of restricted traffic zones – as per s. 3 of the Road Traffic Act 1988.
ANSWER TO SAMPLE QUESTION
B
Explanation = S. 1 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 states that a person who causes the death of another by driving a mechanically propelled vehicle dangerously on the road or other public place, is guilty of an offence. Golf buggies are considered as mechanically propelled vehicles, and therefore Lewis is guilty of the offence.
