Decision making in community patrol concerning the use of electric and hybrid plug-in vehicles

Sustainability and fewer carbon emissions are now two of the most common goals for countries, enterprises, and regular citizens. Electric vehicles and electric mobility play a special part in those goals. This literature review allows us to state the use of these types of vehicles and their operational and environmental issues, needs, and consequences. The questionnaire was made with questions regarding habit and behaviour patterns relating to a more innovative, sustainable and greener means of transportation without harming both the operational requirements needs, and includes public policy measures to promote this kind of mobility. For the empirical analysis we employed the ordered logistic regression. The findings of the estimations show that it is possible to state that the shift to electric cars is considered a command improvement, and that it is quite possible to use mainly electric vehicles as police cars, not only for community patrol.
