Summary[]
Mr. Forgetful answers the titular question, saying "Wait a second, I don't remember... Oh! Yes! It's so we can recognize them right away! Police officers are on the street to help you when you need it. You can ask them for directions if you get lost, or for protection if someone wants to bother you. If they dressed like everyone else, how would you know they were police officers? So, they all wear the same outfit: their uniform. That way, even if you're as absent-minded as me, you can see them from afar!" while sympathizing with the reader.
