Scottsboro Parks Patrol Car A VW Policeman’s Dream
In 1964 Scottsboro Alabama adopted Car 5-5 a Volkswagen police cruiser built for continuous patrol duty with a dome light siren and two way radio. The city sought a durable economical vehicle to run all day six days a week in stop and go traffic without breakdowns or excessive tax burden. The VW faced winter snow that year and outlasted other cars, keeping Officer H L Wilkerson on patrol despite challenging conditions.
