'Bad Ass' Police Cars...
 
Walking home from work and they've set up an ANPR checkpoint on one of the busiest roads in the 'diff. Obligatory white van snapping all the cars that pass with a selection of South Wales' chubbiest hanging about looking quite sheepish.... apart from this ::

Exact same colour, exact same alloy's, sitting on the side of the road waiting to pounce. Got themselves a cheeky little LCD message board in the back and some proper Miami Vice style blue/red lights in the back window.

One of the younger, chubbier coppers looks at me looking and say's, and I quote : "That's a sick office isn't it".

"err... yeah, I guess it is Orricifer"


Anyone else know of any 'sick' cages the Fuzz are employing to tackle the miscreant's of todays society ???

I can't lay claim to seeing most of these. I have only seen the BMWs, Giant SUVs, Dodge Chargers, Chevy Camaros and a few others. I just did a google search and thought it was funny. Sorry for image sizes.

The stupid thing is that if a chase ever reached the sorts of speeds where those sorts of cars (except the Hummer) make any difference over the standard police fairly brisk Volvo selection, then it would probably be deemed to be endangering other motorists too much to give chase. Why they spend the tax-payer's money on these things I have no idea.

most are just a pr exercise, they never actually go out on patrol. i've seen properly livered scoobys and the like, but tbh they're only around the cost of a decent ovlov to buy...

in america they also seize vehicles from the crims...
