The Police Patrol, Merit, the Buffalo, and the motorcycle are all used for patrols. The Stinger is used for high speed pursuits, or parades. The force also has APC's for Special Forces, as well as three different types of helicopters.
Ethics[]
AJM LCPD Force officers are not allowed to cuss, or show disrespect to criminals. It is well known for this attribute and standard. All officers treat others respectably. All officers are also very close to each other in their shift groups. All officers can communicate on the official forum page for the AJM LCPD Force, but otherwise, the morning and evening shift officers do not see each other on patrols.
Shifts[]
LCPD Buffalo Unit.
There are two shifts run by the AJM LCPD Force. There is a morning shift and an evening/night shift. Each shift is run by two different commanders, but whenever the chief is on duty, all authority goes to him. The morning shift is from 12:01am-12pm. The Evening/night shift is from 12:01pm-12am. All times Pacific Standard time.
A department wide test was conducted in 2009 to compare response times and situation resolve between the two shifts. Times were comparable to each other with only a few major differences on these tests. All tests were controlled and acted out the same. They varied from pursuits, to handling a drunk, to a terrorist situation. Both shifts equalled about the same in handling crimes, with the evening/night shift being a bit better on calming criminals down in a situation.
All officers can communicate on the official forum page for the AJM LCPD Force, but otherwise, the morning and evening shift officers do not see each other on patrols. Special attention was made that PSN names were kept secret between the two shifts as not to mess up shift rotation.
The force's main webpage is on AJM STUDIOS.NET.

The same goes for the fire department units, and medical units, which often share North Algoquin Station as their hub, though they use the real stations in the city as well. Criminals are dropped off at the nearest station often times, or are dropped off at the Alderney State Prison if too big a crime is broken, or a certain amount of crimes are done. Injured people are dropped off at the nearest hospital, or one that can cater to a persons medical needs.
