The Complete History of the Presidential State Car

The Chief Security Officer Is Always Present

Any time that the Chief of State is on the road in the state car, he will not be alone with the driver. The Chief Security Officer is always present in the front passenger seat of the vehicle, next to the driver. This ensures that the person with the prime responsibility for keeping the leader safe can always keep a close eye on him. This is just one of the many pieces of evidence that show how the two are always in very close proximity. Of course, the Chief of State may be alone in the passenger compartment.
