Greece has the... slowest police car in the world!
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Halki is one of the most beautiful and picturesque islands of the Dodecanese, but it also has another… attraction.
It is the time when the Greek islands are bustling with life and are overwhelmed by thousands of foreign visitors who want to enjoy their summer. The most sophisticated of them avoid the most prominent tourist destinations and seek the beauty and picturesqueness of smaller islands, such as Halki.
With a permanent population of 475 inhabitants, Halki is a point of reference, for all who have visited it, in the southeast Aegean. But beyond the natural beauty, the wonderful island of the Dodecanese, has another... attraction for its visitors.
Can you imagine a tiny Citroen Ami starring in a police chase? In Halki, this is not a fantasy, it is a reality! The island has the cutest, but also slowest patrol car in the world!
And in fact, it also has the Limeniko, a donation from Citroen from 2021. Beyond the humorous perception of the subject, there is a logical explanation for the choice of the tiny electric Ami. This is related to the extremely narrow roads of the island, which would make it difficult for even a supermini to maneuver and which are completely forbidden for SUVs, which are usually chosen as police vehicles on the larger islands.
