The New York ?motorcycle cop? has a one and one-quarter wide light
blue stripe of braid on the outer seams of their pants.

?The distinctive uniform items of New York City Police Department
Highway Patrol officers are structured to the specialized type of
patrol duties these officers perform.?

?In particular, Highway Patrol's uniform was designed to be functional
for riding motorcycles. ?

?In all seasons the uniform includes breeches, which for all ranks
have a one and one-quarter wide light blue stripe of braid on the
outer seams.  The single width of this stripe of braid for all members
is as distinctive as the color: in every other unit of the Police
Department, trouser braid this wide indicates a supervisor, while
ordinary officers have trousers or breeches with much narrower braid.?
