new undercover car

I know none of us break the rules of the road.... but just in case traffic is traveling slower than you or you decide to make your way through a back up... be on the look out for a completely stock dodge charger.. no PD mods(i.e. black rims with chrome center)... factory tint maybe a little darker... saw someone get pulled over by it today... pretty sweet to see a COMPLETELY stock charger as a cop car...

I heard about these chargers, they are going to be the new standard police vehicle.

Just never heard of completly stock looking ones. Radar detectors ladies !

Yup, the old crown vics were just too slow with the ever increasing speeds of new vehicles.

The charger is their answer to catching people I guess.

Always check the license plate for "XMT" or "WSP" down the left hand side. Either that or WSP in the license plate itself, such as WSP-321. All cop cars have to have one of those two things on the license plate.

I'm not sure about this, I used to think the same thing until one day I saw an unmarked with exempt plates, you know what I mean, Just a string of letters and numbers about 7-9 digits long.

I saw a green older (probably '00) factory Dodge Ram with somebody pulled over on 26 a week ago on the way to the beach. I assume it's the local PD using their own vehicles because they don't have the funding. Just shows you gotta watch out, any car could be the Po.
