Each police patrol vehicle usually carries two policemen but at the end of the month the number in each vehicle increases to four policemen," the police source told Gulf News. The source said usually there were 15 police patrols out on the roads but when fuel was short the number was reduced to seven or may be only five vehicles per shift. "The ration given to each patrol is Dh400 per month," he said.
