Greene PD gets new “green” vehicle

GREENE – A recent donation has added a new, energy efficient vehicle to the Village of Greene Police Department’s motor pool.

Thanks to the generosity of the Oregon-based company My GoPet and their Regional Sales Representative Mike Lummis, the department is now the proud owner of a GoPet, a 3-wheeled electric-powered personal transportation device customized for use by law enforcement.



The Greene department was chosen to receive the donation, Lummis explained, “because of their strong community involvement.”

Billed by the company’s website as “a personal transporter that’s economical, efficient and easy to use,” the GoPet has a maximum speed of 16 miles per hour and a range of roughly 24 miles per charge. Charging the vehicle’s battery, Lummis said, will cost under 3 cents at the village’s current electric rates.
