(NORFOLK COUNTY, ON) – The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Norfolk County Detachment recently hosted a motorcycle training seminar that included approximately 25 officers from various OPP detachments and municipal service.
On Thursday, October 23, 2014, officers from Norfolk County, Haldimand County, Brant County, Highway Safety Division (HSD), Highway Enforcement Team (HET) along with members of the Waterloo Regional Police Service attended a motorcycle training seminar to discuss and focus on inspection techniques specific to motorcycles being operated on Ontario Highways.

The Norfolk County OPP is fortunate to enjoy a healthy partnership with the attending counties and agencies and this training allowed everyone in attendance to share their knowledge and strengthen an already strong relationship.
“I would like to personally thank the WaterlooRegional Police Service for their assistance in providing updated and timely information to all of the officers in attendance. This training is essential in keeping all of our officers updated on motorcycle laws and inspection techniques,†comments Inspector Zvonko Horvat, Norfolk County Detachment Commander.
