    Do you know what identified it as an 'undercover' police car? Pretty strange choice I would have thought.

    Hehe well yes that would definately indentify it! lol May have been a "D" in his private car perhaps? Not sure why the police depart would be using a polo when they have their own V8 beasts. Not taking anything away from our beloved little pog but it wouldn't be the first choice of pursuit vehicle that comes to my mind.

    Maybe that's the point.

    Well as has been said in the Qld spotted section, we've had an undercover black Golf GTI as well as a black SS ute and other unmarked cars. They change these cars up regularly and also swap the number plates so noone can get used to them. These "cops" are the scum of the earth and their sole purpose is to revenue raise for the government. Won't continue on as this makes me so mad.
    Cheers,
    Trent

    In a perfect world, yes. But a good police officer knows the difference between someone who is driving dangerously and illegally compared with someone who is accidentally driving 5km/h over the speed limit or does something like passing through an orange light unintentionally only to get pulled up and have the book thrown at them over what should have been let go completely or brought to their attention and a verbal warning issued.

    Unmarked cars are introduced in these instances soley to book every poor bastard they can doing anything even moderately wrong.
