I got approved today to participate in the program. I think it will be a great opportunity and experience for my over all goal of becoming a Peace Officer.

Right on! I've been considering law enforcement for a long time and would love to get some more info once I'm done with college. What exactly do you do on a ride-a-long or is it just as simple as it sounds?

I've been on several.. It's just what it sounds. You go in, sign a few waivers and cruise along. Depending the shift it can be very entertaining or plain boring.. all you need to do is stop by your police department and say you are interested in doing a ride along. If you can go to Foster City, there is not much action there, but they'll take you on the spot. If you are lucky you'll get a younger cop who'll pull people over to entertain you. San mateo is not bad either, belmont is simple.. i tried san francisco, but never got a call back Good luck.

Only I got to stay there too.

Me too...I asked the driver to bring me back to the Silver Legacy but instead was taken to some Roach Motel called Detox Suites or something. I didn't even get a issued robe like the rest of the guests. weak sauce. [ April 18, 2007, 03:47 PM: Message edited by: twisted54 ]

Just got home from my ride-along. Wow, that shit was amazing! We went on a code-3 call; we made it from Sunrise Mall to Marconi & Walnut in 4minutes! We were going down Sunrise at 100+ and my balls were in my stomache! I know for sure now that law enforcement is where I want to be and will be attending the Sheriff Academy in January!
