@ Mr. Reality,
No, a criminal won’t obey rules, that’s why they are considered to be criminals. However, it WOULD serve to alert the tellers and bank personnel that someone with bad intentions was headed their way, and perhaps allow them to take action that might stop a robbery, or at least make the thief easier to identify and arrest.
Okay!Perhaps the trashmen will see those awful orange shoes trying to be ditched and turn him in.lol. Bank robbery…really?
Wow. Some of you people amaze me. The fed govt has a rule too, as well as the state govt…you cant rob a bank without breaking the law. Do you clowns think a bank robber cares about a bank rule about wearing glasses, a mask or helmet into a bank…
A guy is getting ready to rob a bank and has on a mask but navy fed has a sign on the door that says no masks, i guess he calls it off and heads home…geeeeeeezzzzzzzz it must be something in the water with yiu folks…
Navy federal has or had a rule, not a law ,that youhad to remove singlasses and headgear before entering or you would not be served or allowed to enter. Wearing a motorcycle helmemt into any place is something I have never seen.
In situations like this, a simple rule about having to remove headgear or hats before entering the bank would help quite a bit. People who complain would need to understand that making it more difficult to disguise yourself would also make catching robbers easier. Or, hopefully, discourage the robbery in the first place.
It isn’t illegal to wear a helmet into a bank. If banks “pushed the button” every time someone walked into the door with a helmet ,hat, sunglasses or other face blocking item the police would be doing nothing but taking it to the bank. Also i’m sure the guy didn’t go into the bank and linger he/she probably went straight up to the teller which would talk like less then a few seconds because most banks aren’t exactly large.
This is one reason I love Navy fed, They have armed officers there all the time from what ive seen.
Should be able to get this guy since an orange motorcycle kinda sticks out.
How do you let someone walk into a bank with a motorcycle helmet on without hitting the button red flag
