Following the success of the Metropolitan Police Department collaboration event held in Shinjuku on April 21, the Metropolitan Police Department has now requested the Special Vehicle Division 2 to participate in the event. The Metropolitan Police Department's Traffic Affairs Division decided to participate in the "Starting Ceremony of Traffic Accident Prevention Touring by Female Riders" held as part of the Spring Traffic Safety Campaign. On the day of the event, a life-size Ingram will be decked out in front of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department building to see off about 40 female riders who are leaving for a touring trip to Chichibu, Saitama Prefecture. Since the Ingram in the story is usually kept in the Special Vehicle Section 2 building in the remote Wangan area, the two shots with the Metropolitan Police Department building will be a rare sight.

The departure ceremony will begin at 8:00 a.m. on May 17, with the deck-up starting at 8:20 a.m. The public is welcome to attend the ceremony and watch Ingram and the Special Vehicle Section 2 staff arrive for duty.
