First Class Motor Officer Traffic Control Badge BA40

Overview of the First Class Motor Officer Traffic Control Badge | BA40

First Class delivers one of the most recognized duty accessories in traffic enforcement: the Motor Officer Traffic Control Gold on Silver Shield Badge, model BA40. When a motor officer needs an authoritative, professional presence on the road, this badge delivers it immediately.

The challenge every motor officer faces is projecting clear authority at a glance, on a bike, in the field, in any weather. A badge that looks generic undermines that authority. The First Class BA40 solves that with a bold 7-pointed star shield set inside an oval frame, finished in a striking gold-on-silver two-tone combination that reads "Motor Officer" across the top arch and "Traffic Control" at the base, both in deep navy.

At 3½" x 2½", this badge wears prominently on any uniform shirt or jacket. The centered full-color American flag medallion reinforces the authority of the role. A custom ID engraving option (up to four characters) lets you personalize your badge number, with a short production lead time when engraving is selected.

Motor officers, traffic enforcement units, and civilian-role traffic control personnel across the country rely on this badge to identify their function clearly every shift.

Specifications

Compatibility

The BA40 is a universal-mount flat-back badge designed to attach to standard badge holders, badge clips, and uniform shirt badge tabs. It will fit any holder that accepts a standard 3½" x 2½" oval shield badge.

This badge is suited for uniform dress shirts, motor officer jackets, and any public-safety-style uniform with a badge tab or badge loop. It is not a law enforcement commission badge and does not carry the authority of an agency-issued credential. It is used as a role-identifier badge for traffic control functions, not as a primary duty credential.

It is not compatible with oval badge holders sized for smaller badges such as 2¾" x 2" formats.

Intended Users

The First Class BA40 Motor Officer Traffic Control Badge is made for traffic enforcement personnel who need a clear, professional role identifier on the job.

Motor officers and traffic division deputies wear this badge to identify their specific assignment within a larger law enforcement organization, distinguishing them from patrol or detective divisions. Municipal traffic control officers and civilian enforcement agents use it to project authority during pedestrian crossing control, school zone enforcement, and road closure operations. Security and event management professionals assigned to vehicle access points and traffic routing at large events or venues also rely on this badge to communicate their function to the public without confusion.

It is also purchased by departments equipping new or temporary traffic enforcement roles, and by individuals replacing worn or lost badges between formal department procurement cycles.
