University of Kentucky police force roars on all-electric motorcycles.

The University of Kentucky Police Department is going green and doing its part to promote UK's sustainability efforts with the acquisition of two new battery electric motorcycles (BEMs). UKPD purchased two new Vectrix VX-1 vehicles this summer and trained 10 officers in the use of the 100-percent electric motorcycles that have zero emissions. Ten more officers are scheduled to be trained by the end of the fall semester.
