How Fast Can You Run? Dubai Police Force Adds Lamborghini To Car Fleet

             
             When will Nigeria get there?

What do police officers in a city which is home to the world’s most-acclaimed 7-star hotel, the world’s tallest building and the largest shopping mall in the world hunt criminals in? A Lamborghini that’s what!

 As if Dubai is not crawling with enough over the top luxury facilities as it were, the city-state finally sealed its reputation as the number 1 luxury destination in the world when its Police department tweeted about its latest addition to the force’s fleet…a $500,000 Lamborghini!

The car also has a maximum speed of 217 mph (349kph) and can accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-97 kph) in 2.9 seconds…a very handy fact seeing as 15% of traffic fines issued in Dubai are for driving at speeds in excess of 130 mph (209 kph.) In statement by the Police department, the force said the car, which bears the number 8 on a customized license plate, would be a step towards confirming the stature of Dubai as “a city of luxury in all of its facilities.”
