It's hard to respect authority

Dallas - Unfair Park - The Dallas PD's New T3: Not As Intimidating As It Sounds

Looks like a Halloween costume. That's ridiculous. I'm sure that scooter contraption cost a lot more than if they would have got bicycles. There's no need for anything like that.

I think I can out run that on foot!

LMFAO.... did anyone watch the attached video clip with the "T3 in action"? I nearly came to tears when it espoused that the T3 gave a platform for "...an imposing command presence". Thing looks like something they would put on Reno 911 as a joke.

I find it hard to believe that this something the the officers themselves requested. I wonder what they say about that thing?

Sure did work for comedic effect in 'My Name is Earl"

wow. that thing looks silly. It said in the article that the officer has a hell of a time controlling it and higer speeds. i guess htis thing would keep the officers from doing a face plant unlike the police segway. WHat happens if the BGsteps up onto a curb. dosen't seem like that T3 would be able to go up or down curbs or abnything like that.

Too funny that they have already wrecked one.

"An imposing presence..."

The video reminded me of '70s Big Wheel commercial!

YouTube - Big Wheel by Marx Commercial

Now THAT'S an imposing presence!!!

They need a basket or something to finish off the look...or to put BGs in.
