Which code corresponds to Drunk?

• A. 406
• B. 407
• C. 408
• D. 409

Answer: (C)

In this 400-series system, there is a specific code used to signal that a subject is intoxicated. Using that designation on the radio immediately communicates the person’s state to responding officers, guiding the on-scene approach—priority is safety, potential transport, and monitoring for any escalation, rather than pursuing a crime-based response unless behavior changes. The other codes in this short set refer to different conditions or situations, so they wouldn’t accurately describe an intoxicated individual. That makes the code for a drunk person the correct choice among the options.
