Guy trying to address some of the safety, wellness (neck strain) and tech issues that moto officers face with a ticked up helmet.

If I were a moto-officer it would be a must have item.  Probably the best part is that it completely fixes a big part of the animosity between LEO's and Sport bikers. 

Simply put and LEO can now instantly run my plate and know I am not wanted and that my license, insurance and registration are all current.  He can do all of this without pulling me over!  In another thread recently routine traffic stops were part of catching bad guys.  It makes sense that it is a great way to find people with warrants.  Now it will be even easier!

I think a helmet like this would give LEO's a lot more latitude when making a stop (or startle) decision lol.

Great idea I hope the kid sells them all over the States!

That's cool.
ANPR   it helped the cops find and stop me much too easily when some disgruntled fellow motorist called them and reported me for a fictional hit and run.
It is awesome tho  you can't get away with anyhthing
