Which of the following is NOT an aspect of impersonating a peace officer?

Impersonating a peace officer involves behaviors that misrepresent someone as having law enforcement authority. While actions such as threatening to arrest, seizing property, and detaining individuals all relate to the misuse of power and can lead to claims of impersonation, exhibiting an authorized badge is inherently a representation of being a legitimate officer.

Using a badge to falsely claim authority is a direct demonstration of impersonation. However, the option regarding exhibiting an authorized badge does not describe an unlawful action associated with impersonation but rather the act of showing false authority. Unauthorized use of a badge is closely tied to impersonating; rather, the concern is whether it is done without legitimate authority. Therefore, exhibiting an authorized badge does not fit within the context of actions that constitute impersonating a peace officer, making it the correct answer to the question.
