Murphy Jnr Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 No, they're just not as evident as they once used to be.
mafya Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 They are all in cars nowadays, only the pcso's actually walk the streets.
tokyojoe Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 does a p c s o have the same powers as a proper cop?
Guest sibon Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 They are all in cars nowadays, only the pcso's actually walk the streets. Not so. We get them on foot round here. And on mountain bikes.
kidley Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 does a p c s o have the same powers as a proper cop? in a word no, they have no power of arrest, the police call them scarecrows

lectrolove Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 I haven't seen one since we moved to this house in 1990. Before that we lived at Hunters Bar and had a regular Bobby.
pattricia Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 Ive seen plenty of Traffic Wardens on their beats.
verona Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 in a word no, they have no power of arrest, the police call them scarecrows They are civilian police staff, so could make a citizens arrest if needed.
