Are people a product of their environment?
23
Why is cultural awareness important to you as a Law Enforcement Official? A police officer pulled over a car for a traffic violation. The driver appeared to be non-American. He stopped, then got out of the car and approached the officer’s car, shouting and waving his arms. The officer wondered if this person was dangerous or unstable, preparing to attack him/her.
24
In some cultures, you don’t inconvenience a police officer by making him/her get out of the car and come to you. Waiting for the officer or doing nothing is a tacit admission of guilt. In the context of the driver’s cultural norms, he was paying the officer the utmost respect by stepping out of the car. Waving his arms letting him know he is unarmed.
