Law Enforcement Vehicles
Law enforcement fleets, including police, security, and traffic enforcement vehicles, require a versatile, reliable fuel. Propane can meet the performance needs of high-mileage, high-runtime vehicles that range from large, powerful police cruisers to smaller, more maneuverable scooters.

Law enforcement agencies, which often custom-order vehicles, can request
dedicated propane vehicles or propane bi-fuel vehicles as part of their
ordering process. Law enforcement fleet operations are also conducive
to centralized propane refueling.
Propane-fueled law enforcement vehicles offer the following benefits:
• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions, nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, and particulate emissions in comparison to fleets fueled by gasoline.
• Promote environmentally friendly transportation throughout the community because of their high visibility.
• Ensure the reliable operation of essential emergency and security vehicles.
• Support the use of domestically produced fuel, decreasing reliance on foreign imports.
• Reduce fleet maintenance costs and increase engine life.
• Earn fleet operators an alternative fuel tax credit of 50 cents per every gallon of propane sold.
