The police patrols in Australia

It was 20090401.

How the police shuttle quickly on the busy streets without threatening the safety of the pedestrian. There is a shopping street in the CBD of Perth which allows only the pedestrians and bikes to move on it. The local police achieve the mission of patrol using bikes. As a tourist, that's novel to me, I've never seen a policeman riding bikes, don't even mention to ride a horse. (Maybe it does have somewhere, I don't know)
在繁忙的街道上，波麗士如何才能快速的在馬路上穿梭又不會引響到行人的安全。在澳洲柏斯的市中心的購物街就是一條只有行人、腳踏車能夠通過的街道。當地的警察就是利用腳踏車達到巡邏的目的。身為觀光客的我，也讓我覺得非常的新奇，沒看過台灣警察騎腳踏車，更別說騎馬（或許哪邊有，只是我不知道）。

It won't be a problem in finance for the Taiwanese police to patrol by bikes, the only issue is probably safety. Cars always have the higher priority in using roads than motorcycles, bikes, pedestrians, it's a little dangerous for the pedestrians and bikes to compete for roads. There is one more consideration in the finance to patrol by horse, it costs at least 1,000,000 NTD to buy a horse (I guess). In Australia, I think the financial issue to buy a horse is nnot so big, I often see horses raising on the farm in the country.
台灣警察騎腳踏車決對沒有經費上的問題，唯一的問題大概是安全上吧。在那麼不重視人、腳踏車路權的台灣，人和車爭道是有一定危險性。騎馬，還有經費上的考量，購入一匹馬少說也要百萬台幣吧？在澳洲我倒是常在郊區農場看到有人飼養馬匹。
