Unmarked Police Cars in Phoenix, Arizona.
According to FOX 10 Phoenix, DPS troopers now have two new unmarked police cars which include a red Dodge Challenge and Yellow Ford Mustang GT.
FOX 10’s Facebook post reporting about the two cars has stirred up some mixed emotions from Phoenix residents.
One individual discussed the cost of the vehicles, “You could have paid an officers yearly salary with the cost of one of those cars. You can’t afford to hire more officers in departments that are dangerously thin yet you can spend $40k on a vehicle used to entrap the public.”
A young women voiced her safety concerns, “ I am a young and fit woman in my very early twenties. I am Not pulling over for any unmarked car, especially one as obnoxious as those. That is too dangerous. I’ve heard true stories about horrible things happening to girls by men pulling them over, claiming to be a police officer. Disgusting.”
Others commented on the overall benefits of having a faster, more reliable vehicle for officers.
How do you feel about unmarked police cars? Yay or Nay?
