Sir Robert Peel's Principles of Law Enforcement still be applied today to direct law enforcement. In London, officers are assigned sections, which are responsible. Part of their duties is to meet with the residents on that sections, in a period of time, and discuss their interests, opinions, and their needs. Also, officers inform them what have done on their part. This action is regard on Peel principle that “police are the people and the people are the police.” (Lewis, 2011) That helps the police to communicate with the community. Citizens feel they are a concern to the law enforcement, and their safety is a priority. In the United States, the Peelian principles are still in effect. An example is the neighborhood watch programs (Lewis, 2011).
