How to become a cop in GTA 5 Online without any mods

You can roleplay as a cop in Grand Theft Auto 5 Online by utilizing the Dispatch Work missions from Vincent Effenburger. The gameplay is similar to the Vigilante missions that are very popular in the older GTA games.

To unlock the Dispatch Work missions, you must first complete the Slush Fund mission from The Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid. Next, you will have to purchase one of the law enforcement vehicles.

You can use the following cars in GTA Online to become a cop:

Coquette D10 Pursuit
Outreach Faction
Terminus Patrol
Caracara Pursuit
Dominator FX Interceptor
Impaler LX Cruiser
Dorado Cruiser
Impaler SZ Cruiser
Greenwood Cruiser

Disable your CEO Organization or MC Club.
Get inside the cop car and press the right stick or B button on PC.
Vincent will radio you about a job, press the right D-pad button or E on PC to accept it.

GTA 5 Online will then assign you a job where you can roleplay as a cop.

Why you should try the cop missions in GTA 5 Online

Rockstar Games offers you six missions, where you can roleplay as a cop. These missions can be completed within minutes and also reward $25,000 and 500 RP each. Moreover, you can replay them after a one-minute cooldown period.

Hence, becoming a cop not only fulfils your dream but also rewards you generously. Adding more cop missions might even fix the decline of GTA Online.
