I notice that when pictures are posted with guys not wearing all of the proper gear they get criticized heavily. Why is it that police officers on duty don't have on full gear? Just curious
Well in louisiana and a lot of other places I've seen, the cops don't wear jackets. Only time I would see them with a jacket is when it's cold outside, which those are for warmth. I see most rash on upper torso as most of the time that will be the first thing to hit.They're criticized because others want that person to be safe, roads aren't the best for us. Gear is essential, comfortable or not.
I'm not sure what you mean by officers not, the motorcycle officers here are in full gear, pants, boots, gloves, jackets, bulletproof vests.
That's some serious cash for 4 days....geeesh!It's a compromise..... Safety gear? Uniform? B-proof vest? can he or she still drive it??? Also they take training courses for driving. You too can learn it for a measly 850 for the 4 day course.
Can't speak to Louisiana, I've been in lafayette and rayne a lot and never seen a motorcycle cop (those cities even big enough, lol)Well in louisiana and a lot of other places I've seen, the cops don't wear jackets.

I understand the bulletproof vest which part of any cops uniform, but it's not only cops I see this way. I have to say since riding and paying attention more, riders on sport bikes gear up more than riders on cruisers and non sport bikes.
I always gear up because I never know when my day will come!!!
I know right!!!! They mostly hide behind trees in school zones lolCan't speak to Louisiana, I've been in lafayette and rayne a lot and never seen a motorcycle cop (those cities even big enough, lol)
How's this for proper police riding gear?Always wonder too... mobility make sense. I will imagine that cutting off a cop bike must not be something on anyone list. Unlike for us...
Here's the most famous one...lol
