For apps that enable people to identify and avoid police / speed traps / death! Maybe a badge with exclamation point?
So basically a https://materialdesignicons.com/icon/shield with ! inside of it. That could work for security uses also.
https://materialdesignicons.com/icon/shield-outline could also have it if it looks okay.
That could work. I attached some ideas below:

Here are a couple of ideas. @Templarian, I do still like the idea of a shield with an exclamation point though. I also understand that having the letter P inside of a shield does limit its translation across languages; however, a lot of languages that use the Roman alphabet have a 'p' as the initial letter for police. Look at this for reference.


@MrGrigri Yep, lets stay away from letters on icons. I like the police hat. Can we get a svg for that one.
I don't know that a cap would work as they differ around the world.
On the other hand, there is no international symbol to represent "police", or if there is, then nobody seems to know about it.
Yea, guys, not sure if there is a right symbol for this one. Moving this to backlog until we think this through more.
Given the correct context, alarm-light could be an option.
Some other ideas:
Think we should add shield-star(-outline) regardless.
The police badges are really nice! They seem familiar to me, eventhough the German police has nothing like it I believe... I might recognize this shape because of Need for Speed Most Wanted or a similar game 😄
Added shield-star(-outline).
I believe the police-badge(-outline) would work perfectly. I'm going to remove myself as the contributor and add @goyney.
