Use common sense. For example, you may be asked (as is asked by at least one agency in this area):

"You are on a four lane highway, off- duty and in your personal vehicle, doing 65 MPH. You are passed by a vehicle doing approximately 80 to 85 MPH. Your cell phone battery is dead, and you only have two bullets in your gun. What do you do?"

The answers provided by potential recruits can get pretty wild. Lots of action- hero stuff, lots of comical ideas, lots of imagination. However, the answer is...

"Nothing." You don't do anything. Big deal.... so some guy is going fast on the highway. Any action you take, under the given circumstance, would only make the situation MORE dangerous.

So... just use common sense. Don't get misled by red herrings or crazy details. Just answer thoughtfully, and with logic, reason, and common sense.
