Constable Gary L. Freeman commissioned the Precinct 2 Police bike patrol as a volunteer program for fulltime and reserve deputies. 

The Precinct 2 Police bike patrol is a welcome sight on and around the Galena Park school campuses, providing community contact, and general and special patrol services.

Besides having a "bike's-eye view" of road, pathway, and bike-lane conditions, Precinct 2 bike patrol deputies are trained in bike handling skills, roadway usage and etiquette, and related techniques and tactics.

They also can enter many areas inaccessible to cars, respond quickly even in the tightest traffic jams, and provide a safe and unobtrusive presence in crowds.

Constable Freeman's Bike officers are physically accessible to members of the community and usually can stop and talk without holding up traffic.

Law enforcement is a regular part of any deputy’s duties, and the Precinct 2 bike patrol is no exception.

Deputies on bikes, as well as those on foot and in patrol cars, uniformly enforce the Galena Park School District Code of Conduct, Texas State vehicle and traffic laws and Texas State penal law.

Pct 2 bike officers also perform special patrol functions, such as escorting parades or providing security for visiting dignitaries.

The officers also act as positive role models for the children -- as well as other cyclists -- by wearing helmets and obeying traffic laws, habits that make cycling safer for everyone.
