Fort Worth Police Department Motors Units
Expand Your Career as a Motors Officer
There is something about seeing a line of motorcycles moving in perfect formation that captures
attention. At the Fort Worth Police Department, that’s the Motors Unit. These officers are some of the most visible in the city, taking on responsibilities that combine discipline, precision, and professionalism.
The unit’s work goes far beyond riding skills; it’s about protecting lives, representing the department in public spaces, and stepping into assignments that demand absolute focus. If you are drawn to structure, teamwork, and high standards, the Motors Unit could be where your career takes off.
Traffic Enforcement with Purpose
Keeping people safe on the road is one of the most essential parts of policing. Motors Officers use their training and mobility to enforce traffic laws and reduce dangerous driving behaviors.
On a motorcycle, you can reach places patrol cars cannot and respond quickly when needed. The work is about more than writing citations. It reminds the community that safety is shared and that FWPD is committed to protecting everyone who uses Fort Worth’s streets.
High-Profile Escorts and Dignitary Protection
Few assignments carry the visibility and responsibility of escorting dignitaries or leading parades and community events. Motors officers train to ride with absolute precision, maintaining formation while ensuring safety for participants and the public. Whether it is a presidential visit or a large city celebration, these moments put FWPD Motors Officers at the front and center. The discipline and professionalism shown in these details reflect the unit and the entire department.
Event Security and Public Trust
From festivals to sporting events, Fort Worth hosts gatherings that bring tens of thousands of people together. Motors Officers help keep these events safe by directing traffic, securing perimeters, and providing a visible connection between the department and the community. Their motorcycles and uniforms stand out in the crowd, reinforcing trust and showing residents and visitors alike that FWPD is there to protect them.
