115 | Policing in Denmark: Myths, Realities & What Internationals Should Know
Manage episode 506610965 series 3529085
Respect. Trust. Laws. Myths. Police. Denmark. Policing in Denmark isn’t what you might expect.
In this episode, Allan Hansen, Deputy Chief Superintendent of Copenhagen Police, joins Derek, Mike, and Brooke to demystify how policing really works here. From the difference between 112 and 114, to what’s legal (and what’s not) when it comes to biking, drinking, or swimming in the harbor, the team cuts through the myths internationals often carry with them. Allan also shares what makes Danish policing unique: one unified force, a strong culture of trust, and a focus on preventing problems before they escalate.
If you’ve ever wondered whether jaywalking will get you fined, what to do if you lose your phone at a café, or how police handle scams, nightlife, and language barriers, this conversation has the answers. You’ll even hear a few wild stories from Allan’s 30 years on the job including a sheep’s head gone wrong and a city bus nose-diving into a canal. Get the clarity you need to feel safe, confident, and informed.
