I first thought this was a joke. The Gwent Police will be a laughing stock now! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-63262276

Seems like a reasonable option to patrol parks and walkways. The problem with using mountain bikes like other forces do is that it requires the local bobbies to be reasonably fit and offers no transportation or storage for donuts. The TukTuk solves both of these issues and I'm sure nobody will laugh at them at at all.

I can’t wait to see if the tuk tuk is fitted with a blue light and sirens?

Perhaps they bought them cheap from Sospans son - ex Pizza delivery trucks  They always make me smile, not too sure they would if they ticketed me though

Aren’t they stinky two strokes? That will certainly help clear the parks of people!

I was looking to see if they were the old 2 stroke smeg-baskets or eco-signaling electric ones.
If they need somewhere dry and safe to do interviews get one of the pop-up tents and drop the rest into front line equipment? All this is going to do is get the piss taken out of them something rotten?
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Modern TukTuks are LPG fuelled, using patio gas cylinders.
But suitable for Police use?
This is a very silly idea.
