High Gas Prices Drive Police to Make Changes
Fond Du Lac County
May 25, 2007
With record high gas prices, everyone is feeling the pain at the pump -- including the police. Most law enforcement agencies in Northeast Wisconsin did not budget for this year's sky-high fuel costs.
In Fond du Lac, officers in blue have decided to go green.
It's not an option for Fond du Lac police to stop patrolling the streets just because of the record gas prices, so that means being creative and using alternative means of transportation.
The police officers are trading in their four wheels for two -- either motorcycles or bicycles. And frankly, they don't really mind.
