Police Department

Motor Unit

The Vernon Police Department Motorcycle Unit, which falls under the command of the Patrol Division, operates year round as part of our Traffic Enforcement Unit. The department recently obtained BMW Police Motorcycles. Currently there are two officers assigned to the motorcycle unit.

The primary function of the motorcycle unit is traffic enforcement, such as radar, traffic light or stop sign violations, and parking enforcement, but they will also respond to calls for service if needed. They are responsible for funeral escorts, parades, fireworks detail, carnivals and even some road race events in town.
