Deputies find a need for speed :: WRAL.com

doogstein · 07-25-2009, 12:25 AM

Sucks for you guys. Our PD has an unmarked Charger SRT-8 and an unmarked green f-150 on 22's with neon and a body kit. friend got roped by the f-150 for speeding a month ago said he almost shit his pants when he saw what pulled him over.

Who cares? You don't have to worry about stupid stuff like this if you're not a dumb driver....

yep yep. i ran across a camero unmarked. green. he ended up nabbing a kid on a street racing charge when the kid decided to race him. suits the kid right

jamg · 07-25-2009, 12:40 AM

not only will you get pulled over for bullshit mods like an exhaust.

you'll get pulled over in an unmarked car...

cali must be the life

DreamN · 07-25-2009, 12:57 AM

^ You're an idiot.

Unmarked cars have been around for years, decades even, in practically all states worth having them. Nothing new, even if it's a sports car.

wouldnt that be entrapment?

TravisSW · 07-25-2009, 12:58 AM

You're an idiot to race a Z06 anyways.
lol

Unless if you are modded pretty well.

yea this shits around in other states too

articdragon192 · 07-25-2009, 01:13 AM

If you guys read the article, that's in North Carolina, and used for drug busts. Not street racers in California. Lol.

BustedS13 · 07-25-2009, 01:16 AM

unmarked cars are nothing new, drug seizure cars seem to always wind up getting repurposed like this. a buddy and i were pulled over by a 03-04 Cobra just a few years ago.

airsoft · 07-25-2009, 01:26 AM

I believe it was last year 2008 June, Cali court ruled ok to use unmarked law enforcement vehicles for traffic violations.

There was a ban of some sort using them for traffic, not anymore.

so does that mean undercover drug busts are entrapment? cops soliciting prostitutes is entrapment?.......no.

DreamN · 07-25-2009, 01:56 AM

^ It is entrapment, but the defense and what makes it legal for cops to do those types of operations is because it is presumed that a normally law-abiding citizen would resist the temptation to commit a crime if officers did nothing more than give him an opportunity to do so. The only way this fails for cops and actually becomes entrapment is if they pressure the person into committing the crime.

gotspins13 · 07-25-2009, 02:07 AM

he only wanted the car to have fun. cops do that all the time, they think oh cool fast car and we get it for free why not?!

gayyy.

Yep, all those crown vickies with no markings, they are often used for drug busts and such.

yeah i doubt the officer driving the z06 would be revving his motor and instigating people into racing him... that wouldnt be happening.

overall, its not efficient for them to use a z06 for these types of tasks... because the car is just too fucking expensive.. its pointless. all for what, a ticket? it must serve some type of special purpose.

fromxtor · 07-25-2009, 10:38 AM

I live near wake county, but my 240 isnt running at the moment so I dont stick out.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 07-25-2009, 12:04 PM

I got pulled over by an unmarked Plane before...FUCK FL AND THEIR SPOTTER PLANES!!!

Herro · 07-25-2009, 12:35 PM

In Vancouver we have a red Dodge Caravan with a new driver plaque.

shade · 07-25-2009, 12:43 PM

My question is are they equipped with radar and all the fancy electronics they have in their regular police cruisers?

DreamN · 07-25-2009, 12:59 PM

Some are, but most aren't as they are commonly used to lure people to the cars and gain confidence so having all this electrical crap all over it wouldn't help. Cameras and audio recording is what a lot of them have if they're trying to get the person inside the car.

That must have been a while back. They can't do that anymore. Also, half the police cars here are unmarked. If I remember correctly the police can use their personal vehicles as cop cars too, and many get them equipped with the lights and all. I saw a G35 pull someone over, lol.

Ares240SX · 07-25-2009, 05:36 PM

NC has a lot of random cars, I have seen state troopers pulling over people in bright yellow modded out 350Zs...

20 til 3 · 07-25-2009, 05:47 PM

kc had a built supra years ago they use to try to lure street racers with... shit like that should most def be entrapment.. but we all know how the law works

for some reason we have a 80's iroc z as a full out cop car where i live... gay as aids, stereo and shit in it... makes you say wtf tax dollars

we have an undercover mustang here who revs at people and eggs them on. guy drives like a maniac..

Chad4061 · 07-25-2009, 07:15 PM

ouch glad i dont live there...closest thing we got to that is a charger and its not even a hemi lol small town

HyperTek · 07-25-2009, 07:24 PM

this just has to be one of them!!

even tho the guys recordin the vid seem like fruitcakes too driving a neon srt4 or something

FrankDukes · 07-26-2009, 01:12 AM

They should have a law that states, if you outrun the Z06, you go free, it's only fair.

ronmcdon · 07-26-2009, 01:40 AM

The concept is actually very well thought out.
If you don't intend to 'street race', then nothing much happens when that Z06 revs on you..
Those who do, get what they deserve.

Only thing I'd do different (id I were the copper) is pull ppl over in some riced out civic.
Z06 might be too intimidating for your 'run-of-the-mill' street-racer.
