    because it has a two way? are you ****ing serious, you think its a cop car caus it has a 2way.
    Heaps of different reasons why it has, my first would be it has a CB Radio, like alot of cars, my Vks soon to get, it has alloys and a spoiler to.
    Other cars such as most goverment cars, taxi's (clearly its not a taxi) business's also use two ways. Lots of things use two way radios, all cop cars have lights, were not in an american movie where they put their arm out the window and stick a light on the roof.

    It wasn't that long ago that those magnetic attached blue lights were used. There are still some that are floating around.

    Still a few around Perth, about 3 weekends back there was a huge fight at the local RSL (party hire, not old dudes gone wild) and 8 cars showed up, 2 unmarked wagons with them on the roof.

    There are plenty of unmarked cars without blueys (lights) on them.

    Not all of our cars need them. There are some specialist areas that don't require the use of cars for urgent driving.

    Being a Calais it was probably a sargeant or something. One of the highway patrol guys was complaining to me the other day that they no longer get SS patrol cars, but the sargeants etc. still get their Calais'.

    They are not traffic police, so their job isn't to pull people over. But im sure he'd have one of the magnetic lights as well just in case.

    Call me cynical but my bullcrap meter is going off right now.

    Most people would post all the details and say they worked on it today not the cryptic rubbish you put up there. I doubt you have been any closer to this car than the pictures show. Why wait for it to be parked outside the deli before you take a pic? Why not of the inside while you were doing all this work on it? (which is what by the way?)
    Apologies if i am wrong but i think you are telling porkies.

    Look guys it has been around for a while un marked cop cars and bikes. There either done up cars or bikes street setup with undercovers driving em.

    Sargents or such would drive this cars for sure i have no doubt in that.
    Cheers.

    I have seen a few marked cars around the last few weeks with no lights. There was a VE SS the other day, and even a little soft top jeep with all the police markings and no lights. Looked pretty funny really

    I saw an unmarked brand new black R1 Ambulance motorbike. The guy was in full paramedic gear, but his bike didn't have any flashies. Mind blowing.

    Doesn't beat the sneaky undercover bugger in an '89 Maroon Camry. He pulled out of a police station and was in full uniform. I'd have no chance in spotting that one.

    Who cares? Why should we all need to be reminded to be careful? Police are there to do a job, they are not the enemy. If you feel they are, you need to rethink your behaviour and attitude.
