Electric Police Car Needed!

by BBelew57 on July 16th, 2008

Where’s that electric police car when you need it?

Japanese policemen will be driving the Mitsubishi MiEV soon enough. The car can max out at 130kph and go 160km per charge.

The primary use will be to track illegally parked cars. But, what about giving them to old folks who confuse the accelarator for the brake?

There’s a guy in Osaka who drove his car into a bank and broke a woman’s leg, not to mention a whole bunch of other stuff.

Had he been in a MiEV, chances are the extension cord wouldn’t have reached far enough and he would have lost power before going through the window/wall, no?
