looks rice lol

 

Idk when I see pics of those cop cars I think about all the car chases I've ever seen. I maybe can recall ONE car chase involvin a mustang, and even with shitty crown vics they managed the pit manuver multiple times but the guy was a good driver and recovered. Might not have been a mustang I could be wrong, anyhow what is the need for all these super fast cars besides wasting tons of gas patroling and writing tickets? Maybe people run in fast cars in the Europe, I have no idea, but in the states I've never seen or read about it really. Tax payers money down the drain. The best case are the chargers in nyc...

 

NYC isn't the only place with chargers, I have seen many in California.

 

I know, the point is its a city with tons of traffic.

 

wow that is pretty sick!!

 

Ahhh, okay, gotcha.

 

Yea..the NC highway patrol uses them also..they look sweet with a low profile LED light bar on it..

 

That was a mustang. And the only reason the cop cars were able to keep up was because the mustang was a pre99 v6 model.

 

I knew it, was pretty impressive driving though lol

 

yup.. camaros and magnums too. there's a couple cities that have a corvette as well. i think the beverly hills police dept has a mercedes that the dealer has loaned to them for DARE activities and crap.

 

Jersey and Philly has some Chargers too

 

These days with radio, busy traffic and all sorts - there is no excuse for the Police to be riding around in more than a 30K car.

It's a total waste of taxpayers money.

Basically they are not setting a good example at all, just showing what toal ricers and street racers they are themselves.

I've never seen one of those cars (from the UK) driving at a sensible speed, even when running sans lights and sirens. They are always dicking around and going fast.

In the US, I just see the usual Crown Vic's and occasionally a nice(ish) state patrol car. That's just Texas (Houston) though - I'm sure there are some wastes of money somewhere around here...

 

^^^I dont think its a waste of taxpayer money, per se. All of the cars you see on the road that belong to either a local, county, state or federal municipalities are on either a state or federal contract and get the vehicles for A LOT less than what we, as John Q Public, would pay, or anything that is confiscated in any event involving a felony, if I am not mistaken, could be taken by the police. As someone said before, there are a lot of luxury cars that are being used by the local and state police departments for the DARE programs that were confiscated in felony arrests.

 

Seen a new charger cop car here in Edmonton. . .would love to see a nissan cop car anywhere lol

 

The cops definetly speed for no reason in those cars lol. I guess the only upside is theyre probably a much bigger deterant for chases. Would probably think twice before thinking you could easily outrun the cars posted.

 

the kansas city mo pd has crown vics. some uppity suburbs on the kansas side have chargers

i know breckenridge colorado pd has range/land rovers as cop cars lol

 

My town has a bunch of Charger cops.. I've seen mustang and camaro cops a lot when traveling to the south.

 

"i give up"

 

lol nice

 

We have Chargers EVERYWHERE. There was actually an article in the newspaper about how they were getting them to save money on gas or some BS like that.
