00:00Welcome to Bermuda,
00:03a small island paradise in the middle of the Atlantic.
00:07Seeing the turquoise waters, it does lift my mood.
00:09We'll go along the coast, OK? See you up there.
00:13A dedicated police service...
00:17Somebody's going to need to open this door up really quickly.
00:19..is keeping this British Overseas Territory safe.
00:23Right up!
00:25I think he wears the uniform very well.
00:27You want the $20 now?
00:28Officers, including Brits, doing their duty.
00:32It's tough. And it's really humid today.
00:37The reality is that there are challenges.
00:40Crime-busting in a place where anything can happen.
00:44I didn't really expect the cows to run out the gate.
00:46Uh-oh.
00:49Going to great lengths to catch criminals.
00:54Oh, she's gone, gone. She's gone.
00:56Cannot make this up.
00:58With summer tourists arriving in droves...
01:01Woo-hoo!
01:02..this is peak season for the police.
01:05Listen, baby.
01:07Calm down.
01:08I love policing.
01:09It's in my DNA.
01:11In Bermuda today, it's carnival time for Officer Chris...
01:20Got a few cramps.
01:22The price to pay is just non-stop, regularly.
01:26..a challenging road traffic collision for Officer Helen...
01:29I am new to the role of Sergeant, so this is a new one for me to investigate.
01:33..and the race to find an elderly lady.
01:35Sometimes you get some people with dementia.
01:38So, just basically making sure she's OK.
01:40So, just basically making sure she's OK.
01:51In the centre of the island, Brit Officer Helen McHugh is starting her shift.
01:57Look how calm it is today.
02:00She moved here from North Wales 14 years ago.
02:04I was police officer for 18 years over there.
02:06The pay was not the best.
02:09And I was struggling to get two weeks in a caravan in North Wales.
02:14Whereas here, we have a good working-life balance.
02:17The kids have a brilliant life here.
02:19Also going well is Officer Helen's career in the Bermuda Police Service.
02:25I'm the first female sergeant in the armed response unit.
02:28It's quite a bit of a proud moment, to be honest.
02:30I'm not really one for differentiating with females and males.
02:33I'm one that we're all equal.
02:35We're all in the same job at the end of the day.
02:37But the armed response unit is a very male-dominated unit.
02:41It's sometimes a challenge, but, yeah, we get there.
02:45Today, the armed response unit is on call for any major incidents.
02:50In the meantime, Officer Helen is on the ground
02:53doing some roadside checks.
02:55Yeah, just for your information, myself and ARV3
02:59are doing traffic initiatives.
03:01She's in charge of officers Jonathan Wood and Sasha Franks.
03:05They've discovered the man they've just pulled over
03:08is riding an unlicensed bike.
03:10OK, well, I'm just going to give you a ticket for the unregistered bike.
03:14Yeah, 250. Yeah, I got you.
03:16And he has three outstanding warrants for his arrest.
03:19Do you know what they're for?
03:20What's any warrant?
03:21No, I don't. I don't know what they're for. I don't.
03:23OK.
03:24But that's my insurance.
03:25Bike's not allowed. I ain't going to lie to you.
03:27They did some checks on the unlicensed bike and on the rider,
03:30and then our system usually flags up when people have warrants,
03:33and he had several apprehension warrants.
03:35Well, unlicensed, note, insurance.
03:37How much do you do? Let me know. How much?
03:39Well, let me know, because nobody else let me know.
03:41He has to be taken into custody
03:43and then put before the next available court.
03:45Like I said, I'm a single daddy. I've been doing it for these whole nine years.
03:48I just saw him getting a little bit sort of upset.
03:51PC Wood came over just to sort of let me know exactly what it was
03:54that he was getting upset about, and then it was just a step in.
03:57I understand.
03:58The man pleads for them not to arrest him
04:00because he claims he must collect his daughter.
04:03No, but I swear I'll go for it. Don't worry.
04:06Well, we can't, we can't give you that, yeah.
04:09We can't give you that discretion.
04:11But I'm saying, I'm sorry.
04:13Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
04:14No, I'm not, I'm just so...
04:16Well, what I'm saying is it's not in our discretion to do that.
04:20If you've been issued tickets or you've been arrested for an offence
04:23and then you don't attend court, it is out of our hands.
04:25We have to take you into custody to put you before the judge.
04:28Stand over here.
04:29Stand over here.
04:39If we'd have allowed him to go on his way
04:41and pick up his child on an unlicensed, uninsured bike
04:44and he'd have had an accident, who are the public blaming?
04:51Explain your circumstances to the custody sergeant
04:54and he will try and make arrangements for you to get your child.
04:57But we can't do that on the side of the road.
04:59Listen.
05:00Can I let me go?
05:01I'm not going to fight.
05:02I'm not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do soup or whatever.
05:04Same.
05:05I'm the same thing.
05:06Hey, you're going to stop it out.
05:07No, I know, no, I'm not arguing.
05:08Please don't grab me.
05:09No, no, I'm stopping it.
05:11Once the officers there knew that, then it was good to go.
05:16It's been a successful intervention for Sergeant Helen.
05:19But being in charge of some of her closest colleagues and friends
05:23will take some getting used to.
05:26That is quite a challenging one for me at the moment, to be honest.
05:29I don't want to come across overly bossy, so it's finding a balance.
05:33I'm getting there, but that's where the challenge comes in.
05:36Officer Helen's skills as a sergeant are about to become greatly tested.
05:42Her and Officer Jonathan, known as Woody,
05:45are responding to a call about a road collision between a car and a motorbike.
05:51Preservation of life is always the first thing that we deal with.
05:54We potentially sometimes can beat the ambulance.
05:57So in that scenario, we're going to be the ones giving the first aid.
06:01That's why we're going underblins and twos at the moment.
06:04All you're thinking is, are they hurt? Is the other person hurt?
06:07Am I going to need to do first aid? Where's the ambulance?
06:10How far away are they?
06:11Because, you know, we're not highly trained in first aid.
06:14It's just basic first aid.
06:15So if you turn up and there's bones sticking out everywhere,
06:17then the wheel's spinning with the information.
06:21So we're not sure whether there's any injuries.
06:23I think it came across that there may be, correct?
06:25And because it's a bike involved, it's more likely that there will be.
06:39Policing Bermuda takes teamwork.
06:42Hey, how you doing? Afternoon.
06:44And because officers are paired up with partners they work with
06:47on a regular basis, friendships are formed.
06:50Police don't get injured for the rest of the day.
06:53Have one night.
06:54What a cloud in sight today.
06:56But officers Chris Douglas and no-nonsense Miss Carol Skerritt
07:00have an extra special bond.
07:03Let me get the door for you, mother.
07:06I call PC Skerritt my police mother because she has pretty much been
07:11taking me under her wing since I started my career 11 years ago.
07:16Afternoon.
07:17Hello.
07:18Hello, auntie.
07:19Afternoon.
07:20How are you?
07:21When we're on patrol together we work very well.
07:23She's not old, she's definitely just somebody who guides me
07:26and I really have appreciated it over the years.
07:29She's just amazing.
07:30There's a sign right here that's saying minibus only, sir.
07:34I'm not just saying that because she's standing right next to me.
07:36She really is an awesome officer.
07:38Hello.
07:40Today police mum and police son are on a special mission.
07:45We are here to have a change of uniform.
07:48My cap is faded so I need to exchange it for a new one.
07:51Miss Garrett, what would you like for me?
07:52One would be my envelope.
07:53I could hand this over to get new ones because the son
07:56has faded them and they're no longer presentable.
07:59The warehouse contains around $5 million worth of supplies
08:05and officers can swap old uniform for new as often as they need to.
08:10Uniform is extremely important for us as an officer.
08:14You are out on duty.
08:16Presentation, appearance says a lot.
08:19Thank you, sir.
08:20Is that everything, miss?
08:21Thank you, sir.
08:22I'll be putting on this right away.
08:24And the sun right now is terrible and our uniforms tend to work quickly,
08:30so we have to exchange them very regularly.
08:33Checking what size your cap is.
08:35Do a small and I'll get you.
08:37I recall in training school I did a lot of push-ups
08:40for not having my uniform correctly until I got it right.
08:43So, yes, they are very strict.
08:45Bobbies wear button-down shirts and black trousers
08:49or Bermuda shorts in summer.
08:51And this looks great.
08:53Let's see if it fits.
08:55And while this pair agree on most things,
08:58there is something they don't see eye to eye on.
09:01Hats.
09:02The difference between the two caps,
09:04one is a bobby hat and one is a regular flat cap.
09:06I think it's an optional.
09:08You can wear any one you so desire.
09:10But I choose to wear the bobby hat
09:12because they sit properly on my head
09:14and there's a cooling space for me.
09:17That's why I choose the bobby hat.
09:22I feel like this is a crowning for me.
09:28That's a mother taking care of her son.
09:30Nice.
09:31Like a head protecting chickens.
09:32Yep.
09:33Thanks, mother.
09:34Was there anything else that I could help you with?
09:36No, thank you so much.
09:37Goodbye.
09:38Thank you for serving me today.
09:40Uniforms rejuvenated.
09:42It's back to patrolling the streets.
09:44Hi, guys.
09:45Hello.
09:46Good afternoon.
09:47Good night.
09:48Static.
09:49Everybody can recognize me now.
09:51The bleach.
09:52I feel like it's gone.
09:54Since getting my new hat, I feel refreshed.
09:56No one can make comments about,
09:57oh, my goodness, look at your hat.
09:59It's all sunburned.
10:00So I feel in this, like, refreshed and ready to go.
10:04Afternoon, sir.
10:05Hello.
10:06How are you?
10:07Sir?
10:08Let me show you something.
10:10Can you show you something, please, sir?
10:12What happened there?
10:15April.
10:16It's April, sir.
10:17You got to put your sticker on.
10:18April.
10:19Well, it's not nothing there, sir.
10:21So I'm going to do some checks.
10:22You have your license with you, please, sir?
10:24Can I have a 31 check, please?
10:27Sometimes I'm kind of, like, more focused on the beat,
10:31and there it is, scared.
10:33It's like, hey, Hotel Charlie 15,
10:35can I get a 31 check, please?
10:39The reason for our stop.
10:41This bike is displaying the stickers seeing April,
10:45and we're now in July.
10:47So as a result, we called it into police operation,
10:49and they are running the check to confirm with us
10:52that the vehicle is indeed licensed.
10:54She can be tough, and she knows it.
10:57But she's just doing her job at the end of the day.
11:00We're doing confirmation.
11:01Of course, I have to take that softer approach.
11:03Sure, if not, I probably wouldn't survive
11:06with my fellow Bermudians.
11:08Right.
11:09So confirmation from police operation.
11:11This bike is indeed licensed and insured.
11:14Does mean he doesn't have the sticker on,
11:15so he was warned, and he will get the sticker,
11:16and I fix it to the bike.
11:17Everything is OK.
11:18We'll resume our patrol.
11:19Have a good day, sir.
11:21Back to City Hall.
11:22Daddy, this is the end of our show.
11:28BRIT officers, Helen and Woody, are responding to reports
11:33of a road traffic collision between a car and a motorbike.
11:38Thankfully, upon arrival, there appear to be no serious injuries.
11:51I was on my way to church.
11:52Right.
11:53Which church are we going to?
11:54St. Mark's Church.
11:55Oh, my God.
11:56OK, what I'm going to do is...
11:57My car is new.
11:58Oh, I'm going to have a heart attack.
11:59Don't worry about it.
12:00We'll sort it out.
12:01The female driver seems to have had a delayed reaction to the accident.
12:17Do you need an ambulance?
12:19Are you OK?
12:20Are you OK?
12:21Are you sure?
12:22Are you sure you don't want to get an ambulance to check you over?
12:26Is there any medication that you take that helps you?
12:28Yeah.
12:29Where's that?
12:30I took them.
12:31You all right?
12:32Have you got high blood pressure?
12:33Yeah.
12:34But I took it.
12:35Sorry, 10-9.
12:36She just got the high blood pressure.
12:38Do you need an ambulance, Juan?
12:40The motorist has been driving for decades,
12:44yet it's her first ever accident.
12:47Oh, Jesus.
12:49Lord have mercy.
12:50Oh, my God.
12:52This car is new.
12:53Right.
12:54Oh, yeah.
12:55Lord help me.
12:56I think she was sort of obviously in shock.
12:58We'll just keep an eye on her ourselves in case the condition changes,
13:01but she seems OK older than that.
13:04Also largely unscathed is the other party,
13:08who just happens to be an on-duty police motorbike officer.
13:12Do you have any other injuries other than the road rash?
13:15No.
13:16What happened?
13:17No, I was just in a bike race.
13:18Right.
13:19So I came ahead.
13:20So you were following the...
13:21I was ahead of them.
13:22Ahead of them.
13:23OK, so they were coming up.
13:24I've been overtaking this gentleman here.
13:26OK.
13:27Yeah.
13:28It's coming along here.
13:29The lady came out of the driveway here.
13:31Right.
13:32And she's pulled out?
13:33She's come out.
13:34OK.
13:35So there's a bike race on today.
13:37So the RPU section, which is the road policing unit,
13:39will escort the bikes to make sure that they're safe
13:42because the bikes are travelling at quite fast speeds.
13:45As the sergeant on the ground,
13:46Officer Helen must take charge of the scene.
13:49Yeah, 10-4, we are going to need to put some information out
13:51to say that this road is going to be blocked.
13:54If we can let the public media relations know.
13:57And because the crash has involved a police vehicle,
14:00things are about to get complicated for Officer Helen.
14:03So when a police vehicle is involved in a collision,
14:06then it's a sergeant or above that would come out
14:09and deal with the investigation side.
14:11I am new to the role of sergeant,
14:13so this is a new one for me to investigate.
14:15For newly promoted Officer Helen,
14:17she now has to determine if a fellow officer
14:20is at fault for the collision.
14:22It is tricky dealing with police officers
14:25because they're family, aren't they?
14:27Summertime is festival time in Bermuda,
14:43and the island is gearing up for one of the biggest celebrations
14:46of the year, Carnival.
14:49It's a long weekend of music and revelry,
14:52and for Officer Chris Douglas,
14:54a chance to ditch his police uniform
14:57and really let his hair down.
14:59Police uniform, not really my thing.
15:01I'm kind of, like, more flamboyant.
15:03Like, I like to wear some colours
15:06and all that great stuff.
15:08This is the Carnival costume for this year.
15:12It's going to be arm pieces, leg pieces,
15:15and then a cape.
15:16I'm going to be having to wrap these around my arms.
15:20It's going to be great.
15:22Glue is not sweat resistant.
15:25The difference between me wearing my Carnival costume
15:28and my police uniform arm,
15:30I get to dance a lot more.
15:33Practicing.
15:38Every year, the island is thronged
15:40for the Carnival's main event,
15:42Revel de Rorde,
15:43when costumed partygoers take over the streets.
15:48I'm just anticipating just fun.
15:50So I want everybody to just have a good time,
15:53enjoy themselves,
15:54because I am definitely going to enjoy myself.
15:58You're welcome.
16:00I would say that Bermuda is definitely a great place to be
16:04when it comes to being LGBTQ+, for sure.
16:07We are here.
16:09We are queer.
16:10Good day, good day.
16:12Everything is good.
16:13I feel comfortable outside of police,
16:15and then when I joined police,
16:17I felt even more comfortable in doing that.
16:19I can wear my button-ups and collared shirts.
16:22Hey, you're working today!
16:24But outside of work,
16:25I love that I can just, you know, express myself.
16:29I get to just wear some shorts
16:31and a few little pieces.
16:34Yeah!
16:36You look nice!
16:37So I can pretty much just be me.
16:40Bermuda's Carnival has been going for 10 years,
16:43nowhere near as long as some in the nearby Caribbean.
16:47But it's a rip-roaring success,
16:49attracting partygoers from the island and overseas.
16:53I love Carnival.
16:54It's something that we have taken from the Caribbean
16:57and made it our own.
16:58That is where thousands of locals and visitors attend.
17:03It is basically soca music or calypso,
17:07as they say back in the day.
17:10Hey, honey!
17:11Hey!
17:12Hey!
17:13The Carnival celebrates Bermudan culture.
17:17A police team keeps it safe,
17:19assisted occasionally by colleagues out of uniform.
17:23So, albeit that you're wearing the costume,
17:26well, you still are a police officer.
17:28In fact, two years ago,
17:29where there was a potential affray or fight
17:33that almost broke out.
17:34And here I am,
17:35but at that year,
17:36I was wearing feathers on my back.
17:39And a few of us that were police officers,
17:41we actually stepped in to diffuse the situation
17:44and say, okay, not here.
17:46We're not doing that.
17:47Today's event, Reveldy Road, lasts for up to 10 hours.
17:53Hey!
17:55But dancing his way along the parade route
17:59is beginning to take a toll on Officer Chris.
18:02I've got a few cramps that I've had to ice down,
18:05so the price to pay is just nonstop revising.
18:12It's a lot of preparation, for sure.
18:14It is rapid in the end.
18:16And you get that costume on,
18:18and you're just like, okay, I am ready for the road.
18:21I didn't feel I had to be this whole formal person,
18:25this police officer that has to be, you know,
18:27in a sense, you know, very serious.
18:30I just felt free.
18:32The road was just amazing,
18:33just freeing up, being myself.
18:35Nothing, nothing, nothing.
18:47Doing their bit on the less lively side
18:49of island policing,
18:51a British-born Officer Jen Souter
18:53and her colleague Officer Tay Lamb.
18:57Would you like a mentor?
18:59I would love a mentor, Missy.
19:00There you go.
19:02I appreciate that.
19:03Officer Jen was a barber in the UK
19:05before joining the Bermuda Police Service
19:07two and a half years ago.
19:10I feel like the skills that I had as a barber,
19:13being a people person, I could bring into policing.
19:16In barbering, you have to learn a lot about
19:18how to read people, how to communicate,
19:21and again, you know, that brings a lot into policing.
19:25I found it a really, really nice transition.
19:29So far, today's been a quiet shift.
19:31But at midday, there's a high-priority call.
19:34We're doing a welfare check on an elderly lady
19:38that's been out walking since 9 o'clock this morning.
19:41So just basically making sure she knows where she is,
19:45what she's doing, whether she's okay.
19:47The elderly lady is 98 years old
19:50and has been missing for over three hours.
19:53So finding her is a priority.
19:55Sometimes you get some people with dementia,
19:58but it's always good to check in, make sure, you know.
20:03Any job we go to, you just have to keep an open mind.
20:07So it's just a case of, you know, using your resources,
20:10using, you know, everything that you can
20:12to try and find out what you're actually,
20:14what you're dealing with.
20:20And as the sun beats down across the island to the east...
20:24So just out on patrol right now.
20:27Officers Eddie Smith and Jen Issa Dyke are on the road.
20:32Two suspicious males sitting on the raptor and staff,
20:36dressed in all black, black helmets.
20:39They've got a call to attend a local cricket ground
20:42on their side of the island.
20:44There's a report of suspicious males.
20:47Two males dressed in all black,
20:49sitting outside with their helmets still on.
20:52And a lot of times here in Bermuda,
20:54when people go to commit crimes,
20:55they keep their helmets on to keep their identity concealed from us.
21:00So for some people that shows a red flag,
21:03out of an abundance of caution,
21:05we're just going to go check it out.
21:07Officers Eddie and Jen could be driving towards potential trouble.
21:11But for another patrolling partnership...
21:17Is it hut, right?
21:19Hello, hello, hello.
21:21Hi, ma'am.
21:22You all right?
21:23I'll be home.
21:24Time to talk to you briefly.
21:26Success as they find the missing lady.
21:29Hi, I'm PC Sita.
21:32You all right?
21:33We attend so many different types of jobs,
21:36and I guess nothing really surprises me anymore.
21:40Shortly after they arrive,
21:42the officers are joined by the lady's relative.
21:45You didn't walk all the way from your house down here.
21:48Oh, I felt surprised.
21:49She's strayed far from home,
21:51and it's up to Officer Jen to persuade her to take a lift back.
21:55Definitely being personable helps in a lot of situations.
21:58You know, at 98, I mean, that's impressive.
22:01Congratulations.
22:02Walking's the secret.
22:03We are.
22:04When you take the time to actually speak to someone,
22:07you know, people respond well
22:09because they believe that you actually care.
22:11We'll put you in the car.
22:13Otherwise, you know, you don't be walking all the way home.
22:16No, we're going to go down and catch the bus.
22:18You were going to catch the bus?
22:19That's okay.
22:20We'll give you a ride.
22:21I started in the police on February 14th,
22:23easy one to remember.
22:25I'd done my previous career for a long time,
22:27and I'd wanted to try something new.
22:28Are you all right to jump in there?
22:30There you go.
22:31Nice and easy.
22:32Look.
22:33My goodness.
22:34You're quicker than us in and out of the cars.
22:36Are your knees okay?
22:38Yeah.
22:39This career, obviously,
22:40is completely different to what I did before.
22:42I knew a lot of police officers
22:43because I got a lot of good advice,
22:45and it gave me the confidence to do it.
22:48I'm just thinking, you know,
22:49maybe in the future if you do go out,
22:51you could always let someone know,
22:53just so they know you're okay.
22:57What colour's your house?
22:58Pink.
22:59Oh, pink.
23:00Oh, very nice.
23:01This one here, then.
23:02So this is your front door here?
23:04Yeah?
23:05Let's get you in, shall we?
23:06So you're nice and safe.
23:07I was comfortable in my other job,
23:09but I'm proud of myself for making the change.
23:11So it was lovely to meet you, okay?
23:13You okay?
23:14So it's my way of giving back, I guess.
23:20On the east of the island,
23:22officers Eddie and Jen are arriving at the cricket club.
23:26There is a match going on.
23:28But there's no sign of the suspicious males reported earlier.
23:32Most likely they were sitting right across from us on the steps.
23:36So they maintain a police presence
23:39and take in the local cricket game.
23:42Whilst most Bermudans have a passion for their national sport,
23:46there's not a lot of love for cricket in this car.
23:49I am not a fan.
23:51Cricket can be very drawn out.
23:53And in this heat, no thanks.
23:56It's not my sport to watch,
23:58waiting for somebody to have a heat stroke.
24:00Right, it's too long.
24:02Is it really a sport if you can stop and have a tea break?
24:06Is it really?
24:08Ha, ha, ha!
24:22Officers are still at the scene of a collision
24:24between a car and a police motorcycle.
24:27ARV 2 to ask your turn 5.
24:29And newly promoted Sergeant Helen McHugh is in charge.
24:31Johnson, so can you go down to the junction?
24:35The police motorcyclist, an outrider for a bike race,
24:39collided with a car as it pulled off a junction.
24:42Now the road's being closed
24:44so that accident investigators can comb the scene.
24:47Let me know when you're at the junctions, yeah?
24:50The cyclists in the race can still come through, OK?
24:52Just let me know when they're coming.
24:54Yeah.
24:55Normally, a regular police officer
24:57would determine the cause of a collision.
24:59But because a colleague is involved,
25:01specially trained officers, expert at gathering evidence,
25:05have been brought in.
25:07So the TCI is the Traffic Collision Investigator,
25:10and the FSU is Forensic Scene Investigator.
25:13They can assess what's happened,
25:14they can look at the distance of the road,
25:16how straight the road is, the junction,
25:18any blind spots, anything like that, skid marks,
25:20they will take and investigate it and they will give their report.
25:23And that shows an impartiality that we're not going to be biased,
25:26we're not going to be taking sides.
25:29We've obviously shut off the road to make it safe
25:31for the police officers to do the investigation,
25:33so it's safe for them.
25:34People aren't going to come tearing around the corner
25:35and knock over a police officer,
25:36and then we have to deal with something else.
25:38We're here to deal with the collision at the end of the day.
25:41While the investigators gather evidence on the collision,
25:53Sergeant Helen and Officers Jonathan Wood speak to the people involved.
25:57This is going to be investigated.
25:59I have to get a statement off everyone.
26:01If there are any offences disclosed.
26:03So things like due care and attention.
26:06They might determine that somebody was driving carelessly.
26:08So I will collate the evidence,
26:10so we'll get statements off everyone.
26:11There was a witness,
26:12so we'll get statements off the two drivers,
26:14the witness,
26:15and then the report from the investigator,
26:17and then we'll determine if there's any offences
26:19that have been disclosed,
26:20and if there has been,
26:21they will be dealt with accordingly.
26:23So if the civilian was found to be at fault,
26:26we would be looking at driving without due care and attention,
26:28and that would be either a court proceeding
26:30or we would go by way of a caution.
26:32Were you on lights?
26:34Yeah, lights.
26:35Lights were on?
26:36Yeah.
26:37Where were you at the time of impact?
26:39I was on my side of the road.
26:40This side of the road.
26:41Okay.
26:42If it comes about that the police officer was at fault,
26:45then it's just a,
26:47it might be just a driving matter.
26:49It could be just a driver training issue
26:52or just going out for recertifications
26:54or something like that.
26:55It is tricky because everyone has mistakes
26:57when it comes to driving.
26:59We're all human beings at the end of the day.
27:02Like I say, I've always been professional in my work,
27:05so even if a police officer was at fault,
27:08then I would deal with it the right way.
27:10Go to number two.
27:11We've obviously been here for quite some time.
27:13We are just here with the collision investigators,
27:16and they're taking their measurements.
27:17The forensic scene have just been and taken some photos,
27:20and they've finished now, so they're on the way.
27:22You've got 16.
27:23The next steps now, we will get the vehicles moved off the road,
27:27and then people can use the road freely.
27:29And we've already got the police truck ready
27:31and waiting for the police bike to be recovered to the impound.
27:34I've been in the job 24 years,
27:36so I've dealt with collisions throughout that time,
27:39so it's not much different.
27:41Sergeant Helen continues her investigation into the collision.
27:45With no clear evidence proving who was at fault,
27:48she decides neither party should be prosecuted for the crash.
27:52I've just become a sergeant,
27:55and this is my first collision involving a police vehicle.
27:59Just an added responsibility and extra paperwork.
28:06Next time...
28:07This is not your property.
28:08Officers help to evict a suspected squatter.
28:11When we come back here, you will be arrested for trespassing.
28:13Coming through, sorry.
28:14And Officer Robin McNabb finds a suspicious suitcase.
28:18I'm just going to let Customs know to check that bag.
28:22...
28:41...
