I've heard that the OPP in Ontario had ordered about 100, or at least wanted to order, about 100 Tesla Model S cars for their for their patrol car fleet but Tesla turned them down instead.
Apparently Tesla is worried about "Image" as they don't want their cars to be know as Police or taxi cars. Look at the Ford Crown Victoria!
A reliable police car but not known as a personal vehicle.
I guess Tesla doesn't want to go that route either.
A shame really, I would consider it an honour to be pulled over by another Tesla!
