Like the old Fox bodies of yore, will police departments be recruiting these new models for service? If so, what kind of equipment is expected to be included?

At least here in McAllen, they probably be used for the McAllen Independent School District PD if they were to make them

Albany PD in Oregon uses unmarked Mustangs as traffic sharks. They had a Silver 14 GT for a while, and a white 2011 GT before that.

What do you mean as traffic sharks? Were they baiting people into racing?
No, unmarked cars (typically that you wouldn't expect as police vehicles) that people feel safe flying by, taunting, etc.

Traffic shark= Only purpose in the entire world is to enforce traffic laws and give tickets, like motorcycle officers.

+1. Was in Oregon last year and saw a 05-09 S197 GT pull over a vehicle.

Do these unmarked cars pull people over, or radio ahead to a marked car to pull you over for speeding?

We are told in GA to not pull over for unmarked cars, simply because we don't use unmarked cars for traffic stops. Thanks for your reply.

I hear ya!! Dangerous for Georgians traveling to MD. :headbonk: I wouldn't pull over. LOL I guess I'd be on the news for a low speed "OJ chase." I think, in the past, there have been rapists and robbers using a blue light to pull women or victims over at night. I tell my 19 year old daughter to drive to a police station if an unmarked car tries to pull her over.

Also calling an emergency dispatch center and advising of the possible impending traffic stop with current location is advisable.

Although I believe that is more urban legend / myth and Snopes material than an incident which is likely to occur.

On I-65 north of Louisville, I have seen an F150 unmarked and pulling people over.
