Fat boys’ new toys: Police embrace T3
Just arrived at police stations around the country: the T3 personal vehicle.
The three wheeler looks like a cross between Rascal scooter and Segway. It is operated by a driver standing upright, at a maximum speed of 25 mph. Its power source: rechargeable batteries.
And this is the amazing thing: While it lets you get around at the speed of a bicycle, it does not have any of a bike’s unwelcome side effects. No more annoying burning of calories (except the few needed to keep you upright)! No more cardio workouts going uphill! No irritatingly toned legs! The T3 enables you to develop – and keep – your own personal love handles, double chin and double tummy!
As a special bonus, the machine even lets you waste energy as you benefit from its effects. You will have the privilege of changing batteries every 25, 50 or 75 miles, depending on battery type. It will leave you with the satisfying feeling of having pissed away resources for a task that you could have easily fulfilled with human power.
The desired results of the T3 seem to materialize immediately, as the above picture of an LAPD officer that appeared Saturday in the L.A. Times demonstrates.
Given the effects of the trike it’s safe to say that its engineers clearly knew what they were doing when they gave this thing a carrying capacity of up to 450 pounds. Go LAPD!
