Secretary Albert Jackson, SCI #038 Jackson PTT & TS LLC (Atlanta Downtown Improvement District, Retired) Email: secretary@ipmba.org IPMBA Member Since: 2003 IPMBA Instructor Since: 2018 My IPMBA Instructor: Michael Crowe, PCI #147, Roswell Police Department My Favorite Place to Ride: The Silver Comet Trail in Cobb County, Georgia My Most Memorable Moment on Bike Duty: A suspect on foot vs. me on the patrol bike in 2018. The suspect used sidewalks, alleys, stairs, and one-way streets to attempt to flee from Atlanta PD. I used sidewalks, stairs, and wheelchair ramps to keep him in view and direct the patrol vehicles. He went to jail tired. My Words of Wisdom to Other Public Safety Cyclists: You are the best example of community-oriented policing that your agency will ever have. Greet every person you pass, smile to every child that you see, and make every visitor to your jurisdiction feel like they are at home. |

At-Large (Education) Thomas Zermeno, PCI #1390T-B/EMSCI #412T-B Norman Police Department, Norman OK Email: education@ipmba.org IPMBA Member Since: 2013 IPMBA Instructor Since: 2013 My IPMBA Instructor: Jay Littlejohn, PCI #1100, University of Oklahoma Police Department My Favorite Place to Ride: Outside. Campuses, streets, bike parks, historic sites, anywhere that bikes can go. My Most Memorable Moment on Bike Duty: Stopping a vehicle from my bike. I arrested the driver with felony charges, impounded his vehicle, and his dog went to animal welfare. Someone else did the transport and I went back in service… on my bike. A citizen came up to me and said that was the coolest thing they had ever seen: a bike cop pulling over a car. My Words of Wisdom to Other Public Safety Cyclists: Remember that your bike is another tool in the tool bag. Use it to your advantage, not your demise. |
