MAIN BODY
Discuss the role of police officers in video/audio recording members of the public as part of their
patrol strategy.
Patrol strategy plays ans important role in all the country as this is a method through
which the police commands , directs and with that constraints all the areas that are being
important for all the public safety. There are mainly 3 types of patrol strategies they are Active
patrol, Random patrol and directed patrol. Active patrol the police officers tend to take all the
active measures in order to remove the crime by making all the areas to discover and detect the
certain area. In Random patrol the routes that are being followed by the random behaviour in
order to predict the potential criminals that are being carried away. Directed patrol are focused as
they use to tend all the hotspots areas in which the crime can there by be conducted as all the
potential in order to remove the crime. The police officers plays an important role in all the
countries as they tend to provide all the important cultural and the varies ethics with all the legal
capabilities which can be enhanced in order to maintain the growth of the public. The police
officers variedly serves the general public by giving them an evident record of nature through
which all the people liver in the safer side(Borges 2018). There had been seen that there are
certain rights and duties that are being led by the police officers in order to frame the work and
behave in the moral work.
As in order to make the crime rate lessen in all the areas there has been made that all the
crimes of certain areas are being there covered by the police. Though the police officers covers

the right to work and also to investigate the matters that are equally important. The police
officers tends to imply that all the video and the audio recording can be conducted by the person
in order to make it clear and variant, there has been analysed that the police officers can at any
time if they seems that all the general public needs to clear out the roles and as for the further
investigation it is important to maintain the role of the company there can be analysed that they
can record any of the person as a evidence or a proof for the general safety.
The police officers tends to record the audio/ video of the general public as they carries
certain rights by themselves, the main elements behind this are follow:
 In order to cover all the hotspot areas where the crime can there by being conducted so in
order to maintain the peace and the harmony in the country the police officers actively
tries to record all the areas and go instantly whenever there is a need(Davis 2017).
 The most important element is the crime prevention as through all these recording the
police officers tends to prevent the crime rates as there all the countries tries to make all
the areas crime free and for that the police officers use there patrol strategies in order to
keep eye on the areas so the public peace can not be disturbed.
 The crime apprehensions and all the law enforcement is the most important duty of all the
police officers so they tries to record the audio and the video of certain areas that
acknowledge them to avoid varies crime in all the sectors.
 police officers when they get any general information that there can be led any issue in
regard that will disturb the law and order of the country in that case the patrol strategies
are being applies and the police officers tends to make the work proper and clear through
recording all the areas that are being suspected.
Thus, the patrol strategies and the recording being made there has been observed that the
main aim of the police officers is to regulate the work as with all the law and order and to make
the general public feel safe through all the work and the duties that are being governed to them
(Weegels 2018). The police officers considers it as there sole duty that all the public should be
protected by them and there can be taken all the precautions in order top protect the individuals,
the recording in varies areas is basically being makes by the public in order to frame and make
the environment safe in all context.
The audio/video recording of the general public usually affects the life style of the
individuals. As every person in today time have the Right to Privacy and this right covers that no

person can record there life or there normal routine without there permission. There use to be
made that all kind of nature and the social, public and varies activities are being covered by the
police officers and that can violate the right of privacy of the person. As by framing the laws thus
makes the rules t be violate.
But when that can be seen in the other sense, the patrol strategies that are being used by
the police and the right to obtain all the areas which can cover the right to record the audio/video
of the general public is duly being covered too(Hine 2020). When this is for the safety of the
public as these rights are made as they protects the individuals form the upcoming danger. And
even at times protect them to be a part of any crime that can take there life. The police duly use
this with all the government permission and the authorities which implies that person can freely
live there life, but whom there is been seen that any heinous or any other crime can affect any
areas than the police officer can use then audio and video recording strategies.
Police patrolling use to give the public service that use to respond through all the crimes
and stages. As police use to make this further development in order to frame all the areas and
make it work in all the areas. The patrol officers use to be keen and try all the methods and the
way in which the criminals can be caught and various clear and the peaceful environment may be
created (Schuck 2021). There has been maintained all the recording of the public and varies areas
as they implies the basic methods through which the crime which can covers in any area can be
stopped.
Thus, in order to keep the public safe and that makes them to cover all the areas which is
for the public peace and creates an obligation that helps the person to develop the organisational
growth. All the work that has been virtualised as been seen intimidates that police is the only
source through which public can be cleared and safe. And there can be made all the areas
through which this is been done by natural and clear areas of making audio and video for the
interest of keeping the crime away.
CONCLUSION
From this above report it is concluded that, police officers plays an important role in all
the areas as they serves for the protection of the country and there has been made various patrol

strategies which helps to prevent the crime and all the areas that can complies to promote various
strategies which covers and regulate the working. There has been framed that the audio/video
recording made by the police is for the welfare of the people and there can be seen that all such
recordings are being made in order to frame all the areas through making the areas crime free.
The patrol strategies covers all the guidance, surveillance and the methods that can create a
peaceful environment in all the areas. Furthermore it has been analysed that all the police officers
aims to give better security and clarity for the individuals.
