“Chicago cops have a well-deserved reputation for being the toughest guys in a tough town. But you’ve got to wonder how many heads they are going to have to crack to keep that reputation up, now that more and more officers are riding around the Windy City on Segway scooters.”

The upside for the cops is obvious…get fat eatting donuts, and no worries of being able to walk since you can just ride your Segway around…I’m sure the next model will have a donut holder, until then you’ll have to drive with one hand…Welcome to CrzyLand
