Motor officers tend to don different police attire, typically wearing a helmet and boots, but otherwise behave in roughly the same manner as normal patrol car policemen. Throughout the series, only [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]] have featured motor officers.
