You top a pram with flashing lights, pedal power, five gears, a siren, full Hampshire Constabulary livery and a roll bar to protect the driver and you have a little \u201cpatrol car\u201d, with a top-speed of 20mph, unlikely to catch up with a getaway car that easily. Anyways, this isn\u2019t a serious step taken by the Police, it\u2019s just a community project organized by local bobby Keith Waller, and it won\u2019t be doing any chasing.<\/p>\n<p>The car took 40 hours to build with help from children aged 13 to 16 from the Ringwood Comprehensive School. This explains the size factor.  The tiny 6-foot long \u201cpatrol car\u201d will take part in the British Pedal Car Grand Prix on July 11. The lovable Mr. Plod from Noddy\u2019s Toy-Town is sure to love this cop car. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenlaunches.com\/entry_images\/0510\/21\/pedal-powered-Police-car-2.php\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.greenlaunches.com\/entry_images\/0510\/21\/pedal-powered-Police-car-2.php','popup','width=634,height=425,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenlaunches.com\/entry_images\/0510\/21\/pedal-powered-Police-car-2-thumb-450x301.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"301\" alt=\"pedal-powered-Police-car-2.jpg\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-1279732\/Have-noticed-police-cars-arent-big-used-It-looks-like-budget-cuts-really-ARE-starting-bite.html#ixzz0oXavY6mw\">Dailymail<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police cars are have gone from SUVs to Sedans to Hatchbacks.
