Code 19 corresponds to which status?

• A. Traffic stop
• B. Special information/assignment
• C. Conduct investigation
• D. Eat/lunch

Answer: (A)

Code 19 is the radio status used when you are actively stopping a vehicle. It signals to dispatch and other units that you are engaging in a traffic stop and may need traffic control, backup, or additional resources. This status helps coordinate safety, letting others know your current duty is a live stop, not a break or a different kind of assignment. The other options describe different scenarios—special information/assignment is for non-stop information or tasks, conduct investigation refers to pursuing a case or collecting evidence, and eat/lunch is simply a break—so they don’t match the situation of actively stopping a vehicle.
