Default UnderCover Cops=Fairfax County

I've seen a lot of undercover cop cars lately, not the crown vics, but foreign and domestic cars. Post what you've seen and what city.

96 Civic 2dr Custom Green
00 Mustang GT Blue
98 BMW 318 White, marked

2005+ Mustang GT on I-95 in MD though, also seen LS1 Camaro's, late 90's Mustang GT's, in Ellicott City there are tons of UC Dodge Chargers and Ford Explorers, and I've seen Intrepids used as well. Anytime I see any of the above mentioned, I approach and pass with caution-better safe than sorry.

I've seen a Mustang and convertible BMW, but no Civic.

Also a green normal cab F150/Dodge pick up, almost looks custom. Usually on Rt 50 FFX.

That newer Black Mustang lives in Columbia. I see him all the time. Sneaky, sneaky po-po's.

When my friend use to run a speed shop, cops went into his store and asked if he could build them 2 undercover Supra TT's to tackle the street racing scene (when Metro was still alive, before the speed bumps, if u guys know what I'm talking about... years back!). But general rule of thumb: Any car made by "FORD" or "DODGE" cant be trusted! (except vipers!)

I got pulled over by an Dodge Magnum Wagon near the 24hour IHOP in Fairfax during lunch time. Gave me a ticket for no seat belt. I was driving my accord w/rims and lowered, plus it's special edition red so I was an easy target. The Magnum had blacked out windows and no stickers...

I put speed traps I observe here so anyone can use them:
http://www.speedtrap.org/speedtraps/stetlist.asp

I use this site a lot especially when I am about to travel somewhere unfamiliar. I recommend putting your information there so it's in one place to track for people like me and others.

That car is nothing new. I've seen that one 3-4 years ago on the Dulles tollroad. Statey is getting tricky these days.

Damn a green civic. I've seen a few Intrepids in Reston. After the lady in Home Depot got shot by the sniper a few years back, I saw all kinds of cars, from Mustangs to Suv's. I hate FairFax PoPo's.

I probally gotten more than 5 tickets in 4 months before when I was 17-18. Because of my damn youth and fairfax co popos, I had over -30 points on my licience at one time. I'm 25 now and still trying to clean my past up. Probation period for 2 years, if I get a ticket depending on the amount of points my license will be suspended without restriction. I haven't got a speeding ticket for years, just stupid ones from stupid fairfax cops....

Not all Fairfax Co. Cops are stupid, just the ones that gives stupid tickets because they hate hondas and imports.

nope, they can use cars taken in drug raids and other property seizures, then they get auctioned off at some point
