Police scanner codes vary from State to State, county to county and even precinct to precinct.
Police Scanner 10-17 could mean:
• Meet Complainant
• Enroute
• Administrative Assistance
• Getting Fuel (Request for gasoline)
These codes are selected to reduce confusion while communicating on a Radio or listening to a Police Scanner.
