PIs are prohibited from carrying any symbol of authority other than what?

  1. Their badge

  2. Their uniform

  3. Their license

  4. Their firearm

The correct answer is: Their license

PIs, or private investigators, are restricted from displaying any indication of authority. This includes any identifying badges, uniforms, or firearms. Instead, their license is the only permissible representation of their authority. This is to prevent confusion with law enforcement officers and to maintain the integrity of their role as private investigators. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect because they violate the regulations for PIs.
