We start this section with a close look at a Honda ST1100 Pan-European unmarked traffic police bike. Here is the front of the dark green bike. The camera for recording traffic offences is arrowed and the clear lights mounted on top of each indicator flash blue when activated. It is sometimes difficult to picture what is required, as the camera is fixed to point straight ahead only.



This is the rider’s view. All of the regular motorbike controls are there, with added police radio, speed checking equipment and lights and siren activation switches.



Here is one of the rear panniers open to show the TV monitor. When a motorist is stopped, they can immediately be shown their driving by the police officer. The video recorder is kept on constantly while out on patrol.
