In APCO 10-codes, 10-91 refers to "Improperly Parked Vehicle."
This code is used by law enforcement or emergency services to indicate a situation where a vehicle is parked in a manner that violates parking regulations. This could involve parking in a no-parking zone, blocking a driveway, or other violations that may require law enforcement attention.
For example, a communication might sound like this:
- Unit 5: "Dispatch, this is Unit 5, reporting a 10-91 at 123 Elm Street."
- Dispatcher: "Copy that, Unit 5. Please check for registration and issue a citation if necessary."
The use of 10-91 helps officers efficiently communicate about parking violations, allowing them to address issues that may disrupt traffic flow or create hazards on the road.
