A new generation of patrol vehicles are here for the NC State Highway Patrol. On Friday, the Patrol unveiled the 2024 Mustang as its newest standard which drivers can expect to see out on the roads in the next few months. According to NCSHP, 25 of the Mustangs will serve as marked vehicles across the state.
“History and traditions are an important part of our Patrol Family and the use of Mustangs have their beginnings on the SHP in the 80’s and early 90’s,” the NCSHP said in a Friday announcement alongside a few glamour shots of the ‘stangs. NCSHP also address the price of the vehicles, saying it is “comparable to other vehicles currently deployed as part of the Patrol’s fleet.”
A new study appears to show the Bay Area's decision to embrace electric vehicles is having an impact by measurably cutting the area’s carbon emissions.
“We were looking for ways to measure the change in CO2 as we try and make those reductions from all different sources,” said Ronald Cohen, professor of atmospheric science at UC Berkeley. “We observed that the total emissions of CO2 over a five-year period from 2018 to 2022 and the total emissions decreased a little less than 2%. And we attribute that change to the tremendous increase of electric vehicles on the roads here in the Bay Area,” he said.
