Undercover?

not sure where this belongs, apparent the state troopers in the area are getting self conscious of their fuel use.

thats right a undercover prius! the plate scanners defiantly mess with the .Cd but the lights are inside the windshield so at least they got that right. still has to be better than the ol' crown vic's and chargers on fuel, not sure a high speed pursuit would a good idea though...

I believe not every Officer needs/wants a High speed Cruiser, some would be fine with a midsize Patrol Car.

Most wuld be fine with a smaller car, as long as they don't have to carry prisoners in the back. Most of the time a police car on;y has one (or two) passengers.

I ended up seeing this car again. I asked the driver and it ended up being a repo man.he said the scanners were very effective in finding cars that were up for reposession.
