    Seen a black H3 hummer in brisbane capalaba rolling on 24inch chrome rims pulling some one over and tint so dark you cant see any lights until there on and guy was wearing jeans and a shirt.
    Also seen a standard aurion with plastic hubcaps in redland bay pulling someone over
    Float like an elephant sting like a tree clubsport hits what doug does'nt see

    way back from job interview today was traveling lower northeast road, lots of traffic, and someone in front of us was going way under the speed limit.. few cars got impatient dangerously overtookthe cars in front to get around what was then into view, what looked like a new model volvo... instant thought comes to mind.... 'volvo driver?'... it looked a bit wierd, most cars over taking it, was wondering why it had two antennas....

    got within 1 car of it, the car in front of me was a new ford, driver gets really impatient, revs, tries to get an opening to over take it, the car keeps cutting him off, he seems to get really pissed off and finally managed to over take him get to portrush rd, ford turns off, the volvo looking car turns after it, lights up, sirens go on speeds after him and pulls him over.....

    if the cops have a undercover volvo (pretty sure it was one)... they are getting pretty cunning...

    i think they have it just because no one would think of it, my last car was a 240 (didnt get it by choice), despite everytihng u hear the engine actually had some guts with modifications u can get more out of it, i have my VR serviced by the same people who did my 240 (a place that specializes in volvos, and also cos im lazy and they are down the road and nice guys). when i mentioned to them seeing it, they reckoned it would be a stupid idea for a pursuit or general use car, all its good for is the surprise.

    from that pic alone i would have never picked the aurion.

    i have to say im loving not being picked on as much in my vr, tuesday I needed to drive thru the holden hill suburb, TONS of unmarked cars everywhere..... must have been getting ready for a raid or something.

    All scream obvious cops to me.

    The ones in SA are even easier. They all have aftermarket foglights fitted below the numberplate (about 30cm apart, not in the stock 'holes')

    because that really works when you hit a child...

    ohh shit officer i didnt see him cmon man let me off... it's almost impossible to see them when they are that small!
    shouldnt be breaking the law... and in reality it wont matter if your P plater L plater or full license unless you draw the attention TO YOURSELF they dont notice...

    * ways to tell if you draw attention *

    speeding
    loud cars
    big rims
    loud sound systems
    a car that is dumped on it's arse
    or in the case above... running through a stop sign
    and a few others... but this is all for now.


    in that oe with the vdub... is it the dub that's the cop or the police bike in the left of image...i think i see lights in the grille but i'm not sure...

    EDIT: oo and the AFP have been doing it for years, a while back in canberra, there was a club that was notorius for burnouts and alike, some afp members got into the club and went on a journey, and a full scale raid was conducted getting almost everyone there for burnouts speeding and allsorts.

    the afp members all had monaro's that were done up. nice cars.

    the other giveaway in sa is usually an arrogant driver, encouraging you to race when you pullup next to them, who gets upset when you wont.... and then 10 minutes later you see them with lights on pulling someone over lol

    the aurion is tricky but you can just make out the lights to the right of the brake light. I thought the GTI was tricky
