    I'm struggling to understand why you'd need to ask what a bus is used for.... What do you think it's going to be used for?! To transport large amounts of people!!!

    maybe it's used to transport off-duty cops to home, from the station on route. Or just transport a lot of cops in one time for street closure or to the stadium

    just comparing with what we got here in Russia

    Yeah show me a GUMVD where they transport cops to their homes in police-owned buses :D

    Not sure transporting officers to and from the station along the same route and time every day would be a good idea. It would make them vulnerable to anyone who wanted to take out lots of cops at once....

    That never happens in Russia. Anyway, most cops use same public transportation routes every day, so that's not too much of a difference.
