SLCPD Motors

Motors consists of many well-trained motorcycle riders who are responsible for traffic enforcement throughout the City.  The motorcycle squad utilizes BMW and Harley-Davidson motorcycles, which enable the officers to move freely through congested traffic and more effectively accomplish their mission.

The unit deploys City-wide to address major traffic concerns, and it responds to citizen complaints in neighborhoods.  Motors officers educate the public about safe driving while enforcing the laws.
