Taxi Uh Oh

[Easy Drifter]

In Halton region north west of Toronto there is at least one Ford Crown Victoria running around with what appears to be a taxi sign on the roof. It has just a phone #. Call the number and the answer is 'Halton Regional Police'!
An unmarked car used for traffic enforcement. By the time you would spot the lights behind the grill, game over.

Locally the Police have one of these

I've always thought police should have more normal cars, usually it's all quick Volvos or Mondeo STs, if they rolled around in a tweaked Skyline they could catch so many little boys after a race that the number of young driver accidents would plummet due to evry little scroat being banned

Jan, you have been over here and you probably have noticed most police cars over here are "interceptor" versions of 4 door sedans. They tend to be heavier v8 powered cars , with partitions between the front and rear seats, and modifications for police use. The Ford Crown Victoria seems be the vehicle of choice in Canada, but Dodge Charger is one I have seen a lot of down in the US for highway work. I wouldn't want to try to out run one......

Would you think you could out run this guy?

It is even harder to outrun a radio.

Over here I could, I'd just introduce it the the mortal enemy of the Yank tank, a twisty country lane There are roads near me that those things probably couldn't even fit down

Of course it's ideal for highway patrol over the pond, lots of grunt and looks scary as ****

Mid engined car vs front engined yank tank I think it'd have a chance.

I have driven a Charger, they handle pretty decent, and a Hemi v-8 with 400 hp is ideal to discourage people from taking a run. In its natural element, it is a pretty good car for the job.

You Brits have those paved cart paths that you call side roads and I suspect the Charger would have to work pretty hard on, but hey, that thing looks like it would bash the hedges out of the way!!!
