Ron: "Aaachoo!!" Wife: "NICE RON!" RON: "WHAT? AM I NOT ALLOWED TO SNEEZE?!?!"

"I LOST MY IDENTITY!!!" "re-trace your steps..."

Hide the beer officer 401 is here

I start the academy tomorrow, less than 24 hours until all hell breaks loose!

I just got out of the military and besides having weekends or most of them when I was in, everything seems pretty much the same . Being a black guy becoming a officer I was actually surprised my family encouraged it even my brothers in prison encouraged me.

I'm not law enforcement but my father has worked in corrections for almost 20 yrs... and I can tell you that it pisses me off when ppl criticize law enforcement when they've never experienced anything like it, support you guys 💯

Here's what will change.. you get no sleep lol

Can you do a vid comparing federal law enforcement vs state level law enforcement?

Officer, I already laugh at those things and have a natural resentment of media and people

I guess its a good thing i have no friends. No friends = No favors 😜

I got pulled over for the first time today. He didn't even ask for my registration, just my license, and he didn't even go back to his car. I told him the person the car is registered under has a gun permit and that there was no guns in the car but i did have a knife on my waist. He was happy that i let him know that. He asked for my license and insurance and i have it to him. He told me the reason he pulled me over was cause i took off from a stop sign like i was at a drag strip. Then he asked if i had a job and i said no and saw that i just got my license not even a year ago. Then he said i just need to slow down and that he's gonna let me off with a warning. He said he didn't want me to have to worry about a ticket and my insurance going up since I didn't have a job and cause I'm so young. It probably helped that i had no police record whatsoever. If you ever get pulled over, just hope you get an old cop. But when i saw those lights i about shit my fucking pants. He was such a nice cop.

Have you ever pulled over a fan

The cool part of car videos are that you can play the video, put your earphones in and do your stuff on the pc, something like podcast and it's so relaxing

Wellp been to the military and now working in private security. I can relate to most stuff you said. guess i've changed already. Greetings from Lithuania

I came early. I am on my way to church lmao. I'll pray for you LEOs out there

Thanks for the heads up! My only son will be graduating from police academy in October 2018. I took notes on several of ur videos today and will share them with "soon-to-be Officer Clements. "

God damn it Ron!

Man this is great!!! Even on Sundays getting something new from a very good, fun and informative channel!! To tell you mam Im 20 minutes from Forsyth GA and i have a small restaurant. That i would like to invite to if u get a lunch brake or something!!! Have some other officers friends here in town and would love to have a table for all!!! Let me know! Good videos man!

Hey officer 401, if ya read this thank you for your videos... Ever since i got out medically retired out of the military ( injuries on duty) I knew i wanted to be a cop... been plowing through college for couple years trying to achieve the goal... Had its ups and down but your channel always kept me confident... Been watching since badge bunnies vid almost a year ago... Finally went through the hiring process (after doing processing for the last 6 or 7 months) Everything has been passed through just waiting for the police academy ... Just wanted to say thank you for helping me keep motivated..

I never wanna be a cop. But there's something about your videos, that always make me say "maybe that would be a good idea", no matter what they are about.

you've opened my eyes to a part of law enforcement that I've never seen. Thank you

A very informative video, 401. I spent 22 years as a State Police Trooper and retired a few years ago. The example he gave about everyone calling you out as a Police Officer at parties and get togethers is unfortunately true. People will announce your occupation to everyone who is there for some annoying reason, yet not share anyone else's job or career. Also having to work Christmas and other major holidays is often eased by the premium overtime pay plus a compensatory paid day off in the future. I always hated when people I barely knew or remembered from 5 or 10 years earlier, would drop my name to a local department Officer or a co-worker Trooper like we were best friends in order to avoid a ticket. If they didn't have my same last name, then feel free to write them up with my blessings was my response. Another source of irritation he forgot to mention is to be prepared to have your meals regularly interrupted in a restaurant, by John Q. Public feeling a need to ask a ridiculous set of questions that delays your entire meal...... "Excuse me Officer/Deputy/Trooper, I hate to interrupt you but........(insert pointless and rambling question). One last thing you will hear on a daily basis is Joe Citizen reminding you that he is a taxpayer and therefore pays your salary. My response to that comment was that law enforcement is not a tax exempt occupation and that we pay the same taxes that most every other citizen pays, often at a higher taxed rate based upon our income. Uncle Sam loves taking a chunk out of your overtime pay so remember that when you have 20 or 30 hours of OT on your upcoming paycheck.....lol.

Thank you for your insights and service. As a retired military combat vet, your brothers and sisters are the best family you will have.

Just started watching your videos, only took two to make me subscribe. Thank you for being honest and show officers are normal people. Thank you for what you do and hope you keep the videos coming

Nice. My agency actually provides a great class for new Deputies and their family, intended to give some insight on this subject. I'm going to suggest they offer the same to the detention Deputies as well. I noticed many of the same changes in myself while I was LE2.

So basically just like being in the military... I've got this! Love your channel!

Good video! I heard some of the same things at our local PD's "Citizen's Academy." On the sense of humor issue, I have always said that the reason we laugh is so we don't cry. Being exposed to so much of the raw side of life as an officer, I think that whole laugh/cry thing is just amplified.

Officer 401 really puts the humanity into the police department. They are just as we are, someones parent, child, and sibling. Respect and love all around you, we share this world and community together!

“Hide the beer the police are here” 😂😂 i hope I hear that once I become a police officer

I start the Academy in January. 😎👍🏼 And now the real hard work begins.

best channel ever!!! a lot of people in my family talked me down to persue my dream of becoming and officer, but you made me keep going for it.

Makes sense. Tough line of work to be in, but very much appreciated. Sounds like you have the right circle of friends. Best wishes to you and yours.

Hit the nail on the head with this man.

never could clicked on a video so fast, awesome video as always

I took a nap right after watching this video and I was in somewhat of a half sleep and awake state and played video clips in my mind of scenario you described in your video and amazingly FELT what it feels to be an officer.

Thank you for doing your job. Love your videos. Much respect for police officers

Damnit, I was just in Forsyth Georgia for two weeks. Damnit

I would tell Ron to meet me in some place fast and when he is on the way speeding i will give him another ticket

Yep, that military part is true! I've noticed it with my family members who take your oath as well. It's absolutely necessary to have a coping mechanism and humor is the one most normal people gravitate towards. You have done some thinking and reflection about the topic of this video for sure...

Love your videos man!! Keep up the good work and stay safe!!

This makes total sense. 👍👍

I got into this job for the money. Wife: officer 401 told me to remind you why you got this job. Keep the grind honey😊

This is such a great channel. Thanks for making these. Informative and entertaining.

Thanks for the info again the sacrifices you guys make each and every day that's the reason why you all have earned the name hero

I know that sense of humor very well lol. 7 years in the military and 11 in EMS, I have that. Keep up the good work

😂😂🤣🤣I hate it when someone say's "let's take a minute of silence" I bust out laughing. Black sense of humor, Retired firefighter/EMT.

Hey officer 401 i appreciate your service and support everything you do be safe .

WOW! you guys do know how to let loose and have fun too! NICE!!!!

Hey, I am a Deputy in AL. I think you make some great content. A topic/stories I would like to hear from you is about nights with full moon.

Talk about stolen firearms! My beautiful and totally moded out AR-15 was stollen and besides filing a report and leaving it up to the detective, I think I'm out $3k+ :'(

Thank You Officer 401 for sharing this Great Video Content and i Appreciate that Your a friendly Police Officer with the People who get to know You by Your Great Videos

Nice! I just got my first ride along yesterday and on of the questions I asked the officer was if being an officer changes you as a person snd he said not really. But I had a gut feeling that it does and you just cleared it up for me thanks officer 401!

Do a video on police cadets rather than explorers, they're the same but not branched with the boy scouts so they do stuff differently. Should explain how you feel about them and how they benefit with a future LE job.

Starting academy in less than a month! Excited and nervous!!!

Your background music is awesome, really liked it and used it for a couple of home parties in the last few years.

Damn. I love that Cop-Familly part. Wish I d be American, just to have the chance applying for Police.... Keep up your great work! :)

Greetings From France, Officer 401 ! I want to become a police officer too but i'm sure it's a bit different from what you guys do in the US. :P BUT ! Criminals will have to be careful, or i'll beat them with my trusty baguette !

A few questions. Have you ever had to deal with a corrupt cop? Why do some cops lie in court? I'm not trying to be belligerent. I have had cops get up on the witness stand take the oath and lie on me just to make the case. I lost my job, house, and career because a state trooper lied about a non preventable accident. He even made up the charges against me at the scene. Btw I'm a big fan. We need more honest Officers. Thank you for your honesty and fresh perspective.

Great video, and right on key.

it's the same here in Iceland :) I'm working as a cop there for 4 years now and you nailed it with the changes. feel free to contact me if you are ever going to Iceland and keep up the good work

Anyone else think it would be awesome if someone made an animation to officer401s humorful experiences and stories?

Must ... resist ... doughnut joke ... Seriously though love the channel.

Im in school studying criminal justice. Your channel helps me get ready for when I become a leo. Thank you.

I'm glad I was able to find out you did a video like this. One of my best friends wants to be a FBI agent since that's his personal dream career.

Officer401, I know this might be a sensitive topic to cover, but at any point could you do a video on some of the scariest moments you've faced in your LEO career? Like some instances after the events happen, you think to yourself, "holy shit this could have gone sour real quick." If not, I totally get it. I don't have law enforcement in the family but my gramps is a Vietnam vet and he's not really keen on sharing his stories as often as people would like to hear them. Nonetheless, I feel like stories like that bolster the respect for LEO's knowing just how dangerous the job can be.

One of the biggest changes I've seen in myself is I dont do well and crowds. I become hyper vigilant.

Going to my local agency's seminar and signing up for the academy Saturday. Can't wait!

Finally i am early, just so happens to be one of my favourite channels. Good work officer401 keep it up :)

I hope all the people at the party have a sober designated driver !

How about a video about Police vs Fireman or Similarities and Differences with Police and Fire. Or a video about some tough calls you have taken, if you're comfortable with it. By tough I mean hard for your personally or upsetting to you.

Ive been very concerned with how become a police officer would change me and been somewhat worried that it could ultimately ruin who I am...very glad you made this video it answered a lot of my questions 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You have so much good content that I can binge watch on a sleepless night.

Hey officer401, I think it would be very helpful and also informative to make a video about the proper way to handle a traffic stop as a civillian with either a CCW or a loaded weapon on them. I am about to get my military ID and my CCW and I would like to hear from a police officer the proper way to handle that situation. I want the officer to be just as relaxed and comfortable as I am during the stop. I have an idea on how to handle it but I think it would be helpful for everyone to know the officer's point of view and his suggested actions. Thank you and have a good one! :)

So early, videos in 360p. 😁

Thanks for sharing man.

Hey officer 401 i remember when you only had 10k subscribers, times have changed quick, well done your almost at 400k now

My humor's pretty dark and twisted as is - I'd definitely laugh if the pall bearer or bride/bridesmaid tripped.

Hi @officer401 can you do a video about the bomb squad or hazmat team?

You are bringing the gap between us and them.This was a great idea you had,starting this channel.

Great topic!

do cops get paid for the holiday. holiday pay...

I got to ride with a cop friend several times. You learn 3 things really fast. 1 law enforcement is actual work 2 a lot of bad stuff happens in your community that you don't realize. 3 when seconds count, a cop is minutes away.

Hahaha "weekends" I do armed security and I don't know what weekends are anyways so nothing new there. Great video man, keep it up, stay safe, and have a good trip.

Great video Officer. My brother was a cop in Fl for 6 years; I remember he laughed hysterically as I, an 8yo ran around frantically trying to get away from his tazers' red beam. (he never tased me though) ⚡⚠⚡

You should tell us your opinion on what happened in San Francisco with that cop that pushed the Skateboarder into the cop car LIKE THIS SO HE CAN SEE

your middle name becomes THE COP hey this is my friend / neighbor etc. name [ the cop] last name

Excellent video!!!

You nailed it on this video!

Lol the thumbnail is of the French police. Gardien de la paix a la police nationale.👮🏻🚔

OFFICER 401 PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON ICE (IMMIGRATION AND CUSTOMS ENFORCEMENT)

Astute commentary as always 401! Keep safe out there brother.

You nailed it. My sister is a cop and you said everything she told me and more.

No where near first.

"start to expect a little bit of resentment towards the public and media" PERFECT l already have tons of resentment bahaha

Happy Sunday Officer401! Hope you and the family are having a great weekend

Great video and thank you!

Sounds like the Marine Corps lol. The parties are a blast.

I was gonna be a cop but do to my brass balls and glorious mustache I was better served at the fire dept!

this was fascinating. great video, thanks!

Can we take a moment to admire how beautiful the clouds look in this video
