Segway for Safety
This pair of police officer’s from the city of Glendale seem to be enjoying their Saturday duty at the street fair. I don’t think I’ve ever seen these Segway’s used by the Phoenix police.
these segways look practical but it does seem funny to see officers on them. although they are much quieter than motorcycles and I will bet better for officers than bicycles as the officers can conserve their energy and get a higher vantage point to watch people.

ReplyDeleteToys. I wonder if they would arrest people riding on the sidewalk on their segeways?
ReplyDeleteI agree, they look strange on the segways.
ReplyDeleteI want a segway. Arizona Mills and Santan Village have them too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool capture! Looks like they are having great fun.
ReplyDeleteLooks very THX-1138.
ReplyDeleteWell they look a lot more competent on them than Bush did when he gave it a go
ReplyDeleteWhat ever happened to mounted police? Do they have those around here?
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, it looks fun!
ReplyDeleteI've seen a photograph of these before - or perhaps on the television. What a hoot!
