Don't be so cynical. The force needs a customised machine:

i2 Patroller

The Segway® Personal Transporter (PT) i2 Police is a versatile and productivity-enhancing policing solution, designed specifically for the needs of police officers and security personnel. Based upon the versatile Segway i2, it features the new LeanSteer technology, the wireless InfoKey controller, long-lasting Saphion® lithium-ion batteries and includes the following components:

Lower Cargo Frames protect the fenders and provide a rugged look. They can also be used to easily lift the Segway i2 Police into and out of service vehicles
Accessory Bar is perfect for mounting lights, sirens, a GPS unit, and other accessories that utilize round handlebar clamps
Comfort Mats alleviate the fatigue that can occur when standing for long periods
Police/Security Reflectivity helps establish presence and enhance officer visibility in the dark or in high-traffic locations
Handlebar Bag offers various storage options for emergency and patrol equipment
LED Tail Light attaches with a versatile clip and alerts traffic to your presence
The i2 Police maximizes a police officer's visibility, as well as his or her ability to be seen by others. Raising an officer an additional eight inches off the ground, it places an officer a clear head above the crowd. Segway PT riders have superior sight lines for traffic management, crowd control, and community policing. The Segway i2 Police also makes officers more approachable, and allows them to respond more quickly to emergency situations.

The IT letters page carries a comment on the value and importance of the print media in modern Ireland.

"Sir, – I don’t mind the strange looking font; I don’t even mind that the “Bulletin” page has few bulletins; my main concern is that it won’t cover the car windscreen when the frost arrives. – Yours, etc,"
