Why do police officers wear badges?

1

Police badges are an easily identifiable symbol of authority. More than that, they are more difficult than paper ID to replicate. So when a police officer shows a badge, the people know who and what they’re dealing with. It instantly legitimizes the officer as the representative of the law and makes their job easier. It eliminates confusion, and saves lengthy explanations.
