in the u.s... the cop cars seen are ford crown vics and chevy impalas for how many years. in the east they are starting to use dodge chargers as cop cars to see how they are. those things are badass and look hard and can do serious damage. my friend with an evo just added the charger as a car that he's scared of to race on the streets. well while i was at the shop gettin tint done on my car today i noticed a cop car in the streets of long beach. first time for me to see a dodge charger as a squad car. the only thing was that it said on the side that it was stationed in tustin. i was wondering why a squad car from tustin is doing in long beach.. not that normal to see cop cars from other specific cities other than close ones. well the charger cop car was making a right on cherry and just took off.. it sounded mean. i just found it interesting so decided to post about it. any thoughts on these? i know alot of people wont like it because cop cars are just gettin faster and all. also wondering about what kind of cars are used by the police in other areas of the country / world.

This kind of cars are driving around in my area, supported by some Opel Zafira's (we are on the border of two police districts).

The Police cars in my place of birth (which I visit several times a year) are much nicer though!



On the Autobahn Mercedes E-classes all the way, and in the city Volkswagen Passat (I have seen an E91 BMW also as a police car, but just once, so maybe it was some kind of demonstrator?):



Althought these ones are the nicest ones, they remain to be seen in just a few places in Germany:

It doesnt matter what they got they also have helicopter in many countries! And on things for sure if your on a highway and you cannot get off you aint gonna go as fast as a radio! I have to admit i tried it twice first time they got me. Banned 2 years! Second time they didnt but the first time was in a volvo the second time a honda blackbird!
My advice get all your detectors working and get your jammers installed. And always be aware.

In the uk i have golden rules. Dont do over 100mph for any length of time on the highway. Keep all the high speed stuff to the A roads and roads that you know.

If you know the road then you know where they trap or hang out or where the cameras are.

And if your going to run Good Luck!
