EXAMPLE
At 2128, on 12/21/2015 I, Officer Nick Taylor was running radar in Mirror Park, on Mirror Park Boulevard when a black 2008 Obey Tailgater passed me going 53 MPH in a 45 MPH zone. I pulled away from my position and followed up behind the driver, as I came into sight behind the vehicle he began to slow down to normal speeds. I initiated a traffic stop by turning my lightbar and take-down sirens on, the driver complied and pulled to the right shoulder of the road. At this point we were still on Mirror Park Boulevard right by Mirror Park Tavern. I radioed in his tag number, 04EAY868, to dispatch for them to run it while I made contact with the suspect. Before stepping out of my patrol car, I turned my spotlight on and placed it on the vehicle, I stepped out of my vehicle and made my way up to the drivers side window. Dispatch had already let me know that the vehicle came back clean and the registered owner was 'John Doe', he had previously been cited 2 other times. As I made contact, I let the driver know why I had stopped him and he seemed to be understanding of this. The driver maintained a clam and friendly attitude and seemed to be responsive with our conversation, showing no signs of any narcotics use or alcohol use. As I checked over his vehicle, the vehicle appeared to be well kept and clean. I asked the driver for his licenses and registration, he complied and handed over the documents. I looked at his licenses and then looked at him, his picture matched the face I saw in front of me, and his name was the same as the registered owner that came back with dispatch. I told him to sit tight and that I would be back with him in a moment. I walked back to my patrol car and ran the licenses and name, 'John Doe' on my Mobile Data Terminal. His licenses checked out to be valid and held no warrants. As I sat in my vehicle, I began writing on a blank ticket and filling in all the information. I reduced the speed of the ticket to not affect his insurance as well. I stepped back out of my patrol car and walked towards his window again, he offered me a smile as I handed his licenses back to him. I told him that traffic units are in the area tonight and are going to be strictly enforcing speed limits and traffic ordinances, I offered him an apologetic smile as I handed him his ticket. Mr. Doe seemed to understand and apologize for his speeding behavior and even offered that he was running late for his sons basketball practice. We exchanged a few friendly words and I let him leave, heading back to my patrol car to continue my shift.

(This is obviously a quick example but it's a mixture of report writing as well as some roleplay, we could even do turn-based roleplays and do RP's together on calls or traffics stops, etc. I hope this helps!)
