Bike cops in london are trained to do so.
cops in london are trained to do that? interesting.
i've seen lots of bike cops in various places in the us, and i don't think they're trained to do that. seems to me that cop bikes are more for carrying a bunch of gear and having an officer seem both mobile and approachable/feet-on-the-ground, rather than for chasing people on bike.
