He was a probationary constable in the New South Wales Police Force from 1969 to 1982.  He became a paraplegic when a truck knocked him off his police motorbike on Concord Road in Sydney in May 1969.

Kidd worked at several Sydney police stations before transferring to the Lismore Police Station's intelligence area where he assisted in major incidents such as the Murwillumbah bank robbery, the double beach murders at Kingscliff, a couple of other serious murders involving the Mr Asia syndicate.  He retired from the police force in 1982 due to ill health.  In March 1995, he was awarded the National Medal.  He died in Toowoomba, Queensland on 26 February 2016.

Special police: Special police (also see auxiliary police) usually describes a police force or unit within a police force whose duties and responsibilities are significantly different from other forces in the same country or from other police in the same force, although there is no consistent international definition.  A special constable, in most cases, is not a member of a special police force; in countries in the Commonwealth of Nations and often elsewhere, a special constable is a voluntary or part-time member of a national or local police force or a person involved in law enforcement who is not a police officer but has some of the powers of a police officer.
