An American Policeman, paralyzed from the chest down since 2005, has been given a new lease of life through his own ‘Cop Chair’. Now he’s able to chase down crooks in his wheelchair, making him like a real life version of Family Guy’s all-action Joe Swanson.
The chair is designed to allow him to take a more hands on role in his work. This one-of-a-kind “Cop Chair,” comes complete with flashing lights, a siren and an iPad dock. Costing $35,000 to make, the chair is the best crime fighting wheelchair in existence.
It’s a pretty impressive piece of kit: “It’s a cop car,” the chair’s inventor said, “we just kind of tweaked it a little bit.” Now the chair has criminals running scared we just hope they don’t go up any stairs!
