Photo of the Day: Chinese anti-terror Segway commandos {Autoblog}
Jul 3rd 2008 4:26PM yes, they are real segways. it makes a lot of sense for them to use these. a segway can do a four minute mile. it's hard to do that with 60lbs of equipment on your body.
150 Target stores will get Segway patrols {Autoblog Green}
Feb 20th 2008 9:57AM I'm a college student have worked for four months as a private duty security guard on bike patrol around a large campus of buildings, because it was "a job" and I needed the cash... and let me tell you something right now: biking for 6-8 hours per day on a 9 hour shift (and surprise 4-8 hour overtime periods), for 5-6 days per week is NOT FUN, even when you get paid overtime and have OK benefits. It is NOT easy. So until you have had to walk around a building 12 times in a day, or bike around for 8 hours straight, or done something so physically repetitive, high-impact, tiring, and exhaustive for 45+ hours per week, DO NOT say &@#$% about people who do that for a living. If a security guard (lovingly referred to as a rent-a-cop by previous commenters) get to use a Segway, then they probably should, because they are likely dealing with a whole lot of flak, especially for their measly $10-12/hour. Police get paid probably more than they're worth, and they ARE pigs, so they probably don't deserve awesome Segways, but still I can't imagine any person besides Lance Armstrong working 40-60 hours per week patrolling on a bike, and THEN having the energy and physical ability to chase after a suspect and apprehend them.
