10-98 indicates what?

10-98 indicates what?

• A. En route
• B. Standby
• C. Arrived at scene
• D. Finished/clear

Answer: (D)

Ten-codes are shorthand used in police radio communication to convey status quickly. 10-98 is the signal that the current assignment is complete and the officer is clear or back in service, ready for the next call. It indicates the scene is finished and there’s nothing active requiring attention at the moment. That’s why it matches Finished/clear. En route would mean you’re still traveling to a call, standby means you’re waiting for orders, and arrived at scene means you’ve reached the location, none of which convey that you’ve completed the assignment.
