Thousands of police cars with fraudulent software

13 November 2015, 16:23

In the Netherlands, there are about 3,000 police cars driving around with fraudulent Volkswagen software inside. There are about a thousand other government-owned cars like that as well, reports EenVandaag TV show.

There are also Volkswagen police cars yet to be delivered, but these orders will not be reversed, said a police spokesman in the TV program. “The important thing for us is that police work can continue.” Police have a fleet of 12,000 cars.

The 4000 ‘contaminated’ governmental VW cars should early next year go back to the garage for a software update and possibly technical adjustments. The police car importer Pon has been asked to treat the police cars as a priority.

Billions

All are together in the Netherlands an estimated 116,000 VW cars are involved in the diesel scandal that erupted two months ago. Worldwide, it is 11 million cars. The software controlling the cars in a test situation emits far fewer pollutants than in practice.
