The Weber County Sheriff's Fleet Program
falls under the direction of a sergeant in the Patrol/Operations
Bureau.
The fleet consists of 121 vehicles. This
includes cars, trucks, and motorcycles. The program allows
for replacement of these vehicles on a yearly basis; allowing
officers to operate new and dependable equipment and, at the
same time, save money by eliminating repairs. Each year, the
vehicles are sold to other agencies across the country and,
in some cases, private citizens may purchase them. The emergency
equipment is removed when sold to a private citizen. Many
vehicles are fitted with state-of-the-art equipment including
lap top computers, radar, and video cameras. The program has
been very successful and will prove to be valuable in the
future.
