It's not in Avon and Somerset either

Theres a program on Sky called Bike Cops Uk and it follows the new recuits training

If you want to join traffic in the Mets you can join as a motorcyclist or in the cars, there are two seperate applications.
If you want to be a motorcyclist you have to have a full bike licence to start.

I'm guessing the copper i was talking to about it was Met then , cheers for that OBP ipf/tu.gif

I tend to watch it on men and motors - they've got loads of police-based programmes on there!

I know the programme your talking of but you will find those gents already have their full bike licence they are doing force bike training ipf/tu.gif

Good programme!

Sarge- 11-02-2005
Yea it is. I had a bike licence before joining traffic corps but was trained in emergency police motorbike driving

Where I am, you join traffic first then do the motorcycle training if you desire.
