Thousands of Beijing police who will drive patrol cars during the
2008 Olympic Games are queuing up for a special driver training
programme. The first batch of 30 policemen finished their two-day
training on Friday on a closed course hidden in a mountainous area in
the northwest suburbs of Beijing.
The training, which will run to the end of 2007, is part of the
city's comprehensive Olympic security project, which started in
April. About 5,000 Beijing police will be selected to receive the
driver training, and those who pass the examinations will be eligible
to drive police cars and service vehicles for the Games, according to
the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau.
