Motorcycle cops in NSW don't wear leathers - and not even a leather jacket in summer. They are usually in shirt-sleeves. Dunno about Victorians. This pic is a bit old. :D

Nope, our boys (vic) wear full leathers no matter what the weather.

I have always noted with interest that our Motorcycle Coppers wear the normal shirt and 'leggings'. I would have thought that wearing leathers would be a must for any rider - especially one who will likely have cause to ride at higher speeds than most, and dodge traffic while soing so!

As an aside, I watched a motorcycle Ambo ride the wrong way down a busy one way city street a few months ago. Instead of picking a line and letting people move clear, he swerved left and right all across the three lanes, dodging oncoming cars and sending motorists and pedestrians scattering... :eek: Surely not in the ASNSW handbook...
