Helping our local firefighters and police officers is a noble thing to do and we all know just how noble BMW can be. The Baltimore Police Department was grateful to receive 12 bikes that were donated from BMW of North America. Officers who patrol in Inner Harbor will get the lucky chance to drive them.
“Vehicles just don’t give officers the accessibility to the pedestrian traffic the Inner Harbor is known for,” Acting Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III said in a statement issued this morning. “A police officer on a bike is more visible to the public as well as a strong crime deterrent.”
