京都パトカーNot far from Takaragaike, in northern Kyoto, this police car sped by.
The cops were maintaining order during the annual Daimonji Ekiden race.
The race is held in early February and is run by teams from 50 of the public schools in the city.
Each team of sixth graders is made up of 10 runners, 5 girls and 5 boys.
The course winds its way through the city, beginning near the Golden Pavilion and ending near Heian Shrine.
Each leg of the race is about 1.5 - 2 km, and to maintain safety for the participants the cops were out on motorbikes and in patrol cars.
