5-0 Spotted!!

So I was travling south on 295 (in south jersey) today in some heavy traffic. I was in the left lane and as I look in my left side mirror I see a cop speeding down the shoulder.

 

Normally this would not concern me, however . . .

 

This cop was driving a light blue Ford Explorer, completely unmarked, no municipal tags, and a limo tint that only a gangsta would sport. You could barely make out his blue and reds when they were on. The only thing that set the car off were the strobes in the head and tail lights.

 

Watch out these troopers are sneaky.

We have a ford mustang GT that is unmarked around here. Crappy thing is he looks for ricers or street racers. He challenges them to a race then pulls them over. Very sneaky.

yeah that's VERY sneaky. The bad part is that a kick ass radar detector does nothing if he's pacing you and you don't know it. Just stating the obvious. SNEAKY!

Q,

 

Can you legally give them the bird???

Isn't provoking you to a street race and then pulling you over entrapment of some kind?

"Tell it to the judge"

It is, but nobody forced you to make the decision to engage in it.

 

Even then, I found this about the legality of flippin the po po, http://www.chiprowe.com/articles/legal-history-finger.html , looks like it's protected speech bishes. W00h00.

You'd think, but I don't know about the legality of it all. I'll have to ask my brother who's a lawyer this evening and I'll post my findings.

Physical trauma, a lawyer and I'm set for life, sweeeet.

 

Edit: Sh!t wouldn't work, I need to be non-Caucasian. :laugh:

Give a caucasians a couple more years and we'll be the ones complaining about discrimination. I heard in california that english is no longer the language of choice. 52% of the state is spanish speaking. Not that I'm complaining or racist, thats just the facts.

I think that fact is wrong...according to the Census numbers, roughly 2/3 of the people in california are not of hispanic origin.

Can we please get back to the main topic which would be "sleeper" police cars and not the demographics of CA.

 

I made the same post on another forum I participate in and they made metion of a mustang that gets ricers and sports car owners to race them and then pulls them over. SNEAKY!!

Back on topic... I would guess that the explorer you saw is not inteded to be used to trap speeders but is probably used in state government security or something.

don't some cops just install these in their personal rides and speed to work or to get through heavy traffic? i know some cops no this board are gonna raise grief

well my .02 is for all new yorkers. Watch out for the yellow cabs, last sat, at around 2am, i saw a yellow cab(with the menu on doors and everything) flying down lexington ave with it's red and blues on(in the grill and on the back window).

but was it a taxi trying to look like a cop or a cop trying to look like a taxi?

It was following two "regular" cop cars.

We have so many un-marked cars around here it is very hard to spot Da PO...PO:( The best one I have seen recently was a mid 90's Jeep cherokee (Emerald green) dark tint.

You guessed it FHP:eek:

& yes he always has someone pulled over.

I saw a black Suburban with tint pull someone over on 287, my sis saw a GMC Envoy pull someone over on 287. Sneaky.

LOL, NYPD has undercover yellows for sometimes now.. What you'll need to look for is the front passenger and no fare..
