Police Motorcycle Training

Motor Officers who meet the qualification and certification requirements of an 80 Hour Training Course held at Highway Patrol Headquarters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania earn a unique set of Highway Wings.


These Highway Wings symbolize the qualifications of the Motor Officer, not only skilled in the safe operation of the Police Motorcycle, but professional in their character, integrity and appearance. 


Members of the Philadelphia Highway Patrol Motorcycle Drill Team earn a star above their Highway Wings symbolizing the added level of skill and training involved in precision riding and stunt maneuvers.


Highway Wings are typically displayed on the right breast of your regulation uniform above you name plate or at the directive of your law enforcement agency.
