BSO has a Smart Car??

I was looking for information on the BSO's web site about their fuel budget and what kind of equipment they use to satisfy that budget (someone saw a BSO tanker truck??), when I came across this gem.  It's not often that you see anyone getting chased down and pulled over by a smart car! [ linkback ].


Story from the BSO's website:

An airport safety officer at Ft. Lauderdale – Hollywood International Airport parks a new BSO smart car along the departure level at Terminal 2 on Tuesday. BSO is using the environmentally friendly vehicles to replace full-size sedans that consume six times the fuel. Four smart cars will be used in conjunction with BSO’s other environmentally friendly patrol tools including bicycles and three-wheeled T-3 electric scooters at the airport. The smart cars, with three-cylinder, one-liter engines are much more economical to operate and maintain than their full-sized counterparts.
