Now come on, admit it, how many of you watched it all the way through in the hope that a bus ran straight over it?. I know I did 🙂)
in the US most police cars are ford crown victorias (or at least, they used to be, now more and more are dodge chargers and ford tauruses)... anyway, i hate when they decomission a cop car and sell it, then people drive them like they're cop cars. they shine the Q-beam (movable spotlight mounted in the driver A-pillar) at people, and it has the bull-bar on the front bumper, and sometimes they're still painted the same color as a copy car. they've only removed the flashing lights from the roof. you want to talk about impersonating an officer? simply buying a retired cop car, or outfitting that same model with a Q-beam and bull bar ought to be illegal too.A daft friend of mine used to have the flashing blue lights fitted to his car and used them on the motorways here to get people out of his way!
We thought it was hilarious when he went and tried it one day on an unmarked police car - they hit him straight with a ticket to take them off!
