The Irvine Police Department in Southern California has acquired a Tesla Cybertruck, the first of its kind for police use in the U.S., for $153,175.03. It will primarily support the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) program and community outreach, rather than regular patrol duties. The department anticipates the vehicle will last about ten years, aiming to save costs on fuel and maintenance compared to traditional police vehicles.
