Fuuuu, if its true that vpd has camrys now, my "only speed when no domestics around" rule is wrong.


A few times what's saved my ass is when I'm stuck behind a slowpoke and I'm the only person in the car, and the only faster lane is HOV, is to look @ the license plate of the car infront of you. More than once the car infront of me was a ghost car and I had no idea till I read their plates.

All cop cars' insurance ends feb 11th or 12th (I think).

Anyways ... My school liason officer used to have an ep3 type R as his police car...

ghostcar usually is used for cops without and lights car. but w.e people also use it for undercover cars.

undercover and ghost car are the same thing. You will never spot a real "ghost car". Unmarked cars are ones that are on patrol, pulling over your wives and children. I used to work for the VPD in the garage, these little details were very important there, not so much in the real world. pet-peeve I guess

We don't have ep3 type-r's here in canada. :speechless:
It was a SIR (SI in the states I believe).
