Dubai enters Guinness World Records for having the world's fastest police cars

The Dubai police force has just been

presented with a certificate by Guinness World

Records for having the world's fastest police

car in service -- a Bugatti Veyron -- just one of

its 14-strong fleet of supercars.



The police fleet includes a bespoke Aston

Martin One-77, of which only 77 were ever

built, a Bentley Continental GT, three hybrid



Porsche Panameras and two BMW i8s.

The previous record holder belonged to the

Italian police force with the Lamborghini

Gallardo LP560-4, which has a top speed of

230 mph (370 km/h).



But Dubai's police superfleet isn't used for

high-speed chases down Sheikh Mohammed

Bin Rashid Boulevard, or very many police

duties at all for that matter. Instead, the cars

cruise around the Dubai Mall area and

Jumeirah Beach Residence in search of

tourists and attention.



And guess what? You can hail a police car and

snap a selfie with the driver in Dubai.
