LBC is trying to be Green

The Long Beach Police Department is trying to be “greener”.

The Police Department added ten Toyota Priuses to it fleet.

And, plans to replace retiring vehicles with more eco-friendly cars.

The Department consists of mainly Ford Crown Victorias.

The Priuses will be used by police personnel traveling for training and other work…but not patrol.

The new cars will not be replacing black and white patrol vehicles.

The Department says this is because the system is not compatible with all the features needed in a patrol unit.
