The South East Police Motorcycle Training Seminar and Safety Trials will place on Saturday, April 18th, 2009 from 8 am – 4 pm at the Citi Centre Mall, 1955 N. Federal Highway, Pompano Beach, Florida.

The Safety Trials is an annual police motorcycle skills event that benefits the Concerns of Police Survivors (COPS) and the Muscular Dystrophy charities. COPS is a national organization that benefits the children of police officers who are killed in the line of duty. This event is a large fundraiser for these charities and is also the largest police motorcycle safety skills event held in the Southeastern United States. It attracts a large segment of the police community as well as the civilian public. The Institute of Police Technology and Management (IPTM) and Northwestern University Traffic Institute Certified Instructors will be monitoring the course for instructional and safety purposes. The training courses are set up to enhance the daily riding skills of the motorcycle officer. The courses are intricate and very demanding and are used in the Police Motorcycle Enforcement Rider School. There will be three training days available before the Safety Trials starting Wednesday, April 15, 2009, 8 a.m to 4 p.m.. Also, there will be an optional "Fun Run" that simulates the motorcycle officer's daily riding skills. Riders must participate in the Safety Trials to qualify for the "Fun Run".

On Thursday and Friday, 8 a.m to 4 p.m., certified motorcycle instructors will provide training to any registered participate at the competition location, exact hours to be announced. This training will focus on safe procedures when maneuvering in a slow congested area (i.e. cone patterns), the course will be the designed patterns for the competition.
