Anybody know the police code used for street racing....most widely??

Adam

 

We have all kind of codes for different things...... especially when we know people are listening out for us to come after them..... we also have private secuirty channels which normal scanners won't find without the proprietary trunking codes. Your best bet.... take it to the track. That's the best advice I can give you. In the area I patrol, there area total of five municipal, county and state agencies that can be working at any given time, so you never know who might get the call and come to see what is going on. There is nothing you need to prove on the street that is worth the possibility of riding in the back of a patrol car.

 

Finding the code out has absolutely NOTHING to do with me racing. I dont street race. I was asking for another reason.

 

Would your query have anything to do with "Street S.M.A.R.T.S."? (Sports Machines Against Racing on The Streets)

We are trying to define what law inforcement considers "street racing".

 

Whats up Adam? I haven't been over here lately.

 

Hey ***** hopefully next weekend my car will be back together.

 

Its going to be different everywhere. 10-90, 10-95, somewhere around there most likely. 10-100 is my favorite

 

Different departments use different radio codes so it could be anything.

 

It's better than a 10-200.

 

I like 10-10-220 personally

Really though, Red96...sounds like you're in Cobb somewhere?

 

Freaky,
Yes, I work for a city department in Cobb County.


ABeasst,
I wasn't attacking you, or accusing you of street racing (I was making a generalized statement to all who might read this thread), but I do hold a strong opinion on the matter. I've seen and worked too many serious and/or deadly wrecks involving contests of speed.
As far as the codes go, they truly are as varied as police departments. I don't know how many agencies there are in this country, but last time I heard there were 850,000+ certified law enforcement officers (read: LOTS of departments), so there is really no universal code that will serve as a catch all for you. I know of at least 5-10 different code sets in use around the country, and many largeer departments have proprietary code sets. Your best bet will be to go to a large site devoted to the hobby of emergency-response scanning; scanner hobbyists usually have listings of codes in different areas.
Also remember that street racing may be dispatched under other codes, ie: Contact Person (if civilian called in complaint of racing), Traffic Violation (if called in by passing motorists), or, in some cases, dispatch may give out a general area patrol or a "lookout" on the cars involved. There are a dozen ways for a cop to get that dispatch, all depending on how the call came into the dispatch center, and which dispatcher is giving it to patrol.
