## Hot Fuzz

Police departments [in Mexico](<https://futurism.com/the-byte/mexican-cops-pre-order-cybertruck>) and [Dubai](<https://futurism.com/the-byte/dubai-police-tesla-cybertrucks>) are already planning police cars based on Tesla's divisive Cybertruck.

And now, yet another group of five-oh has [released a rough concept for a Cybercruiser](<https://electrek.co/2020/02/21/tesla-cybertruck-police-vehicle-ontario/>) — the hardboiled highway po-po of Ontario, Canada.

Let's face it: the Photoshop on the Ontario concept is a little choppy.

But the sentiment of reducing the sizeable carbon footprint of frequently-idling police cars is a pragmatic one.

Elon Musk, though, had yet to respond to the OPP's tweet at the time of publication.

## Author
I'm responsible for editing, assigning, and scouting at Futurism, as well as occasionally writing for the site. That work involves keeping an eye on a wide range of narratives and issues, but over the past few years I've become increasingly interested in how AI is shaping the future of media, the web, and information itself. My day-to-day often involves collaborating on reporting and commentary projects bylined by my colleagues, but I try to find time to do my own reporting as well; stories I've broken for Futurism have been cited by publications including the New York Times, the Washington Post, the New Yorker, Wired, Ars Technica, New York Magazine, the Columbia Journalism Review, Bloomberg, and more. I grew up in Southern Vermont and attended Vanderbilt University. Prior to Futurism, I contributed to outlets including the Boston Globe, Vice, Wired, Slate, the Atlantic, the Outline, Ars Technica and more, and did stints in farming and food service. I currently live in Brooklyn, New York, and in my free time I enjoy pinball, word games, cycling, running, and music production.
