What action is described by "resisting/interfering" in law enforcement?

  1. Obeying police orders

  2. Cooperating during a stop

  3. Aiding an officer in distress

  4. Opposing an officer’s commands

The correct answer is: Opposing an officer’s commands

The action described by "resisting/interfering" in law enforcement specifically refers to opposing an officer’s commands. This behavior can manifest in various forms, such as refusing to comply with lawful orders, physically attempting to escape arrest, or otherwise obstructing an officer in the performance of their duties. Such actions undermine the authority of law enforcement and can create unsafe situations for both the officer and the individual involved. Understanding this definition is crucial for recognizing the legal implications and potential consequences of resisting or interfering with law enforcement activities.
