WA Radio Scanner Users' Group

is there a callsign displayed on district traffic motor bikes? if so where is it, or are they only on TEG bikes, when ever i seen one cruise past i cant ever see the call sign on them.

There isn't one on the bike like the TEG bikes have. Not sure if the bikes are marked with the call sign i.e. on the radio.
The thing I'm curious about though is the bikes in general, what's in the 2 rear compartments of the bike?

Ticket books, street directory, laser and lipstick

Ooo, toottoot no good picking on someone that has access to a taser...they hurt or so an officer let on who used the stun feature on himself "just to test it". Besides on Australia day when I last saw a M/B close up TE706 I believe it was had what looked like a Garmin GPS. Is that standard issue?

Not standard issue, if you want one you buy one, I have a Tom Tom Rider on mine , very $$$ but worth it

Do the bikes and cars get shared? Or do you get the same bike every day. Whos allowed to take vehicles home and whos not?

Once the bike courses are completed and passed, and if a bike is available you get a personal issue one, all yours to ride and clean and polish !

If your bike is in for a service or to have minor repairs done, are you office bound or in a car. I assume they wouldn't have spare bikes for such occasions?

Fair enough, I can imagine it would handy on a bike.
