Every Thursday, the KQED Arts blog features a new Video of the Week to help you forget that it isn’t Friday yet.

Cops aren’t very popular on most city streets. But maybe they would be if they took a page from the Rome polizia and made some performance art. In this clip from the 1950s, Italian police officers wow crowds with coordinated motorcycle formations. Ooh and aah below.

If you have any crazy sexy cool videos of your own, share them with us and we’ll consider them for future installments of Video of the Week!
