that someone bought at auction or whatever, and it’s coming from afar, and you have to slow down or get nervous thinking it might be a real police car? I bet those people who own old police cars get a real kick out of that.
No more "you shouldn’t be speeding anyway" comments. Most people speed at least a little at one point or another (as the cops often do, even when not necessary!) so there’s no need for a sermon. I also have a habit of slowing down when I see a cop, even if I’m not speeding. I’ve also been pulled over for stupid reasons (once I was asked if I was lost) so I’m usually doing everything I can to not let that happen.

To the retired police officer, great answer. I had no idea. And btw, I have no interest in getting one.

   I suppose some people do buy old police cars for that reason but most people buy them just because they can get them cheap.

   Nah it’s good for you. You shouldn’t be speeding to begin with so it’s a nice little harmless way to get you to slow down.

   Madam; I drive a car that is capable of easily tripling the national speeds limit without even breathing hard and these cars do not bother me one bit.
   You see, I don’t drive like an a$$ so I have no need to worry about them.

   They might get a real kick out of that but the real kick they will get is when they have to replace a whole lot of expensive parts just to keep it running. Police cruisers take an awful lot of abuse banging into curbs, pot holes, various trash cans in alleys, idling for countless hours, out in all kinds of weather, transporting every kind of street scum the officers arrest and are driven by officers who treat it with no respect as a tool in their job. These cars are auctioned off at 100,000 miles or when the maintenance costs become too high for the department. If this sounds like the kind of car you would like I say good luck! I wouldn’t touch it unless it was thoroughly fumigated and totally rebuilt by an ASE certified mechanic. As for looking in the mirror, you don’t have to worry a bit unless you are violating the law. Think about it.
