When to respond to a call using code 3?

• A. When requiring an immediate response to a life - threatening emergency involving threats to naval security
• B. For routine traffic stops
• C. When a friend calls
• D. For non-urgent maintenance

Answer: (A)

Code 3 is for emergencies that demand an immediate, high-priority response with lights and sirens—situations where lives are at risk or there is a direct threat to naval security. The aim is to reach the scene as fast as possible to save lives, protect people or property, or prevent a security threat. It isn’t used for routine tasks like traffic stops, non-urgent maintenance, or casual calls, since those don’t require that urgent level of response. When using code 3, you still drive with due regard for safety and follow proper dispatch instructions and protocols.
