shawn1980 asked:
I’ve noticed a lot of taxis in my neighborhood that are white Crown Vitorias that have a blue stripe on the side. When I see them, I often confuse them for police cars. Isn’t it illegal to drive a car that looks like a police car?
No, I was gonna buy a white crown victoria with a searchlight when I retire and spend my golden years laughing at people that slow down when they drive by me. Is that inpersonating a police officer?

The Overmind asked:
After watching those cop shows where the police are tediously chasing down and crashing into the car they are chasing, it would be more convenient if those police cars and the near-useless choppers were armed with machine guns and missiles. Wouldn’t it prevent innocents from being run over by the suspect as well? So why aren’t they armed with more lethal weapons?

Some have lights on the roof only.
All of the cop cars are marked by the way.

nipsy3 asked:
I just saw an ad in the paper that Pittsburgh was auctioning off police cruisers and some other municipal vehicles. How much do the cop cars usually fetch at the auction? What kind of shape are they usually in? I’d like to know if it’s worth checking out.

Ruler asked:
I was watching an episode of cops and one of the squad cars had to hit the runaway car to get it to stop. That happens on almost every episode so I was wondering how many cars does the average city go through each year?
Also, how much does a fully equipped squad car cost? Who pays for it?

Michael L asked:
My daughter is currently driving a car, and has been driving a car, for the past two years where the car’s registration is under my name. Based on her actions from receiving notice of a parking ticket, I suspect she has received other tickets and infractions with my registration. Is there any way to perform a check on my car’s registration to see if this has occured?

liam d asked: It’s bandied that the criminals are the potential threat to the public and the “following” car is safe because of the ‘trained” uniformed driver behind the wheel.
The synergy and result of both these vehicles invoved in chase is that they are both potentially lethal not only to the public but themselves.
