Im a future officer myself, i have a silly question, have ne of u officers ever went to pull over a crown vic and it was another cop car unmarked? Do cops pull over or attempt to pull over other vics or impalas that look like possible cop cars? Cuz ive never really seen som1 pulled over in a vic b4, jc is all, thanks
Actually a few months ago one of our Deputies was running radar on a road in the County, and he clocked a car going like7 over or something like that. The car pulled over and was pulling a boat, so the Deputy walks up to the car and finds out it is the Sheriff, yes the Sheriff. So he basically just chit chats with him for a few and lets him go of course. But he seriously didnt know it was the Sheriff. I thought it was funny.
I'm actually done working with the County on the 12th and I'm going over to the City on the 16th.
Why would you go from county to city? Sorry to thread jack. Just wondering, cuz my sister changed over to county, and she worked city before. I work city, I like how close everything is, and how busy it is. Small department too, only about 60 on patrol.
Mostly the people in vics are Hucks trying to look like a cop thinking they won't get pulled over. Yes they get treated just like anyone else. If it's a cop, then it's a cop...but why would you let someone go just because they have a vic?
I do B.S work here, and the Captain for some reason dont like me, basically because I dont kiss his ass and he hasnt let me move up in the department in 3 years. So I put in application for the City last year and went thru the hiring process and now I start on the 16th. The City has like 4 to 5 times as many Officers on Patrol and the advancement is incredible. Plus the City has more things going on, they have like 10 to 1 calls come in over the County.
here in brunswick everyone start city then moves to county since the pay is higher also the city will hire joe blow off the street as long as they arent disqualified. the county requires 2yrs prior service or military service.

City is more fun IMO as far as call go and crap you get into. But I can understand that. If you have a crappy Capt, it can mess a lot up. Problem is, with city I think it's more of a problem, cuz you can't move around as much. Unless you're going to a big city. Small departments have their advantages and disadvantages I guess.

See I can see that in some big City, 500k or more population. Like Nashville, you gotta have 2 years prior LE service or Military. The City pays more here and you actually get your raises when you're supposed too. They higher who they want at both places here, but at the County you will get hired faster if you know someone.

The population here is only like 150k, but we have somewhat of alot of crime around here, so they need more Officers. There are 3 different districts here, each one has a certain amount of Patrol Officers and each shift has 1 or 2 SGT's on shift. All I know is that I've been here 3 years, havent moved up at all, then there are like 2 Reserves I know who have been in the Reserve program for around 5 years, just helping out because they like this stuff and wanna help, and they dont get paid. But they have both put in like 3 applications and never get called. Then I know of atleast 3 guys who got hired straight from the streets right into Patrol because they knew someone here or they were related to someone here.
Here in Jacksonville Florida, the city auctions off the cars that they "deadline". They sell them for $1500-$2000, and they are ragged out and have a million miles on them.......but the dope boys LOVE 'EM. They are a cheap platform of reliable (previously city maintained vehicle) transportation.
My friend actually pulled over his own car, 6 months after he got a newer one. The guy had basically bought it, and put gas in it, but neglected to even clean the dirty residue off that accumulated around the old police car unitnumbers.
So to answer the original question, YES, ABSOLUTELY those cars get pulled over just as much as any other car.

So why didn't he ticket the sheriff?
Oh I know, cause cops don't have to obey the laws they enforce.
For the police officers out there
