i wonder how cops who patrol the streets while driving a motorcycle or a 2 door coupe like a ford mustang or something make an arrest? even if they call for back up, how do they do it when they are in the middle of nowhere?

Cops who are "out in the middle of nowhere" don't generally drive those sorts of cars, for just that reason.
In places where those sorts of vehicles are common, another officer (possibly one who drives a transport van) will do the prisoner transport for the arresting officer.

Very simple: they call over the radio for a cage-car or a wagon, and hold the arrested person there until they arrive.
This, by the way, is one of the very reasons why you will not see cops in rural areas patrolling in coupes.

Well officers on motorcycle and in two door coupes are traffic cops..so they spend their day giving tickets not taking 911 calls...but if they have to arrest someone for maybe disorderly conduct ect.. they call another unit to come pick the suspect up.

Normally cops arent on hogs or coupes in the middle of nowhere. Its not a safe way of patrolling in remote highways.
As far as coupes, they call for backup and hold a suspect outside of the vehicle.

definite, honestly. in case you're under the impression of alcohol (as i'm assuming) and you state the reason to rigidity and honestly get in the back of the wheel, the cop can arrest you. law enforcement officers can arrest you for strolling down the line, doing no longer something incorrect. genuine, you would be set loose 24 hours later with out being charged with something, yet do no longer think of the cop could additionally be censured for arresting you by way of fact he became in a bad temper and did no longer like your seems.

When a cop is in the situation you describe, they already know they are going to make the arrest. So as a rule they call for backup before they actually place you under arrest. In some town/cities, they call for backup as soon as they make the traffic stop.

They use their radio. Ha. But seriously, a motor cop or any officer that is using a vehicle without a cage can detain a subject and then just wait for an additional unit to arrive.

call for backup. Usually places that have a motorcycle patrols or foot patrols are in jurisdictions where there is no "middle of nowhere."

Yeah, and how about bicycle cops? I'd really like to see one peddling down the street with a handcuffed perp riding on the handle bars, that would be cool.

They put the perp on hold while they call for back up, who will then transport the cop's arrested perp.
