Apparently the Freemont, CA, police department Teslas will now have a "long reach" deployable-un-demand" ("DUD") extension cords for those times when it is inconvenient or impossible to stop to re-charge.
In addition to the new "DUD" extension cords, all Tesla police cruisers "head's up displays" will now have directions embedded to the nearest Dunkin' Donuts, McDonald's, and/or Starbucks.
Story here, from the CBS San Francisco affiliate:
A Tesla electric patrol car by the Fremont Police ran low on electricity in the middle of a pursuit, after the department said someone forgot to plug the vehicle into a charger.By the way, when I was sent this story, "Freemont" rang a bell, but I had forgotten why. This post reminded me.

What We Won't See Reported By Mainstream Media Today
From HotAir, Trump scored another safe-third-country agreement in Central America -- September 25, 2019.
No biggie, just the last link in a fence that might end up mooting much of the asylum debate in Congress.
While most of the attention today has focused on Ukraine, the White House announced a new agreement with Honduras to take any refugees seeking asylum first rather than the US. That makes three nations with safe-third-country agreements in Central America that effectively blocks the land route for asylum seekers from south of Mexico.The other two: El Salvador and Guatemala.
The reader who caught this (which I had not seen), like me, is amazed what this administration is accomplishing.
The Pelosi House, now run by Occasional Cortex, has yet to take up any meaningful domestic legislation in almost three years. No movement on:
- gun control;
- prescription pricing;
- health care;
- vaping;
- pit bulls on Delta Airlines;
- the width of white striping on federal interstate highways;
