Just saw about 6 motorcycle cops escorting 3 buses pass by my office in Redwood Shores. The buses were white, and the letters looked like "Regal something" - any one have any idea what I saw?

Never seen police escort buses before.
 
Most likely the Minnesota Vikings getting escorted to Santa Clara.

Exactly this.

Saw the same charter bus company being escorted by motorcycle CHP last Thursday for the last preseason game.
 
Yes, we certainly wouldn't want anything untoward to befall those delicate angels from a non-profit organization like the NFL !

Cue the outrage over the President saying "You didn't build this by yourself" while you are paying the bill to escort giant millionaires to their workplace.
 
Now we know where all the SJPD shortages are allocated to. They were also holding up traffic driving a nice slow pace :thumbdown

Celebrity Escorts are typically overtime, and that bill is footed by whomever is being escorted.

being the nfl... who knows.

also, being as redwood shores isn't between san jose and santa clara I'll go not on a limb and say it was CHP motors and they were coming from SF

Speaking of motorcycle cops, are they all geared with t-shirt and textile pants ?

I only saw 2 or 3 motorcycles cops yet but they were all geared like that, do they have the choice or is it a mandatory uniform ?

That is good insight! I saw the caravan pass me on my way home and wondered the same thing. There was a limo, a Suburban and a Mercedes sedan following the 2 busses. A CHP moto was the caboose.

Are you sure they were actual on-duty police officers? Chances are, you probably saw something like these guys...

If that's the case, they're NOT police officers.
 
Usually it's actual LEOs.

I've seen 10+ of these professional sports caravans and it's always sworn, on-duty, officers.

It surprises me then that they're not wearing their duty uniform. If they're riding a department-issued motorcycle, they should be in a department uniform.

Who said they weren't wearing their uniforms?

All the ones I've seen they're in full regalia.
 
They were indeed fully uniformed CHP officers.
