An Eco-Friendly Scooter for the Cops
Other than making life easier for them, the police are now doing their part by using eco-friendly scooters to uphold the law. Actually we can see them in most parts of the world using electric or battery-operated scooters lately. Among them include the Vectrix scooter used by officers around the Glasgow Airport in the UK.
Police have launched a bid to reduce their carbon footprint with the introduction of an electric scooter to their fleet.
The Vectrix scooter just needs to be plugged in to charge and will be used by officers to control traffic around Glasgow Airport.
Strathclyde Police are the first in the UK to purchase such a scooter.
The machine has no carbon emissions, making it environmentally-friendly, and reaches speeds of up to 62mph.
