Bingo! I worked traffic for several years in a marked Crown Vic and rarely had an issue following this method myself. However, there are some people that just won't let you be nice, even when you try!

My favorite was a guy on his way to DragonCon, I assume. That weekend anyway. I walk up, and he says "These are not the 'droids you are looking for." I thought for a second and said "Move along." Then went and got back in my car and backed up to my spot. He sat there for a moment, I think floored it worked. We do have a sense of humor.

Oh and FYI, Georgia doesn't allow unmarked cars to be used for traffic stops. Slick tops yes, but unmarked no....unless it is for a Felony. Although you will often see an unmarked out with a marked if it is like....say an old traffic guy that calls a marked car to make the stop for him. . But that is usually few and far between.

Are you kidding, I bet it gets Dino oil every 3k and an air filter every 12, like the rest of the fleet and stay there until it has 100k or looks rough and then is traded along with a couple of others for another car to be used as an unmarked or under cover car. Cars are just a tool to a department. You'd be shocked, I bet.

If you want scary police cruisers.. try this one on for size http://www.autoblog.com/2011/10/06/2...lice-car-ever/

It is an actual cop car, the company that built the cruiser (also builds armoured vehicles and such for third world countries/dictators ) was around the corner from my office at my previous contract. Rumour is it will end up in VA (have not heard any updates), but it could end up anywhere..
