BRIEF HISTORY OF THE KANSAS CITY, KANSAS POLICE DEPARTMENT’S MOTORCYCLE
UNIT 1912-PRESENT
In 1912 the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department became one of the first police departments in the nation
to use a motorcycle on patrol, primarily to increase response time. The Motorcycle Unit was formed in 1914, consisting of
three Motorcycle Officers. The unit remained active until it was disbanded in 1974. In 1991 the Motorcycle Unit was
reestablished, thanks to a federal grant. The research and grant submission by then Officer Rick L. Armstrong (Chief of Police
2010- present) strongly supported the effectiveness of motorcycles in enforcement, pursuits, and response to traffic violators
and accidents.
