Cary residents have the luxury of enjoying a high quality of life – which includes living in a Town of 140,000 people and not worrying much about crime – at least major crime – that’s why the news this week of several home break-ins while the families where home sleeping is big news & disturbing – the break ins occurred in the Lochmere area of Cary – a large planned unit development with lakes, walking trails, golf course etc (also home to yours truly).

Below is the press release from the Town of Cary – I usually do not cut and paste a blog post but with this I’m making an exception:

Okay, I’ll admit it – growing up I was a big fan of Ponch and John – yes I’m talking about the TV show ‘CHiP’s' – which by the way, ever go back and watch one of those old shows? Scary that I used to like that show – anyway – when I stopped for lunch today at one of my favorite Cary mexican restaurants, (Fiesta Mexicana in the Swift Creek Shopping Center) I grabbed my camera for a shot of one of Cary’s Police motorcycles parked right in front of the restaurant. What kind of police motorcycle for the Town of Cary? BMW of course! Seeing the police motorcycle transported me back to childhood memories of watching ‘CHiP’s’ – and yes I’ve had the theme song in my head all day.

It really made me stop and think how different (in a good way) Cary is today from the tiny rural community of my childhood days! So do you think if I get pulled over by one of these I can get out of a ticket by saying “I blogged about you?”, yea – me either.

The Cary Police have a fleet of four BMW motorcycles as part of the Traffic Safety Team.
