Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three types of police power are exhortative (persuasion and advice), reciprocal (the power to use force in defense of self or others), and coercive (the power to make arrests or use force to maintain public order). Option A is incorrect as deadly force is a subset of the reciprocal power, not a separate category. Option C and D do not accurately reflect the traditional three types of police power.
