even up here in the northbay the CHP has been way harsher, in the last week i have seen 4 ricers pulled over with their hood popped, that is unheard of up here.

These were for commercial enforcement almost exclusively... trucks. They will pull other cars but they are mostly stationed in areas to specifically target big rig violations. Some of them have been distributed to general areas. We have one in Santa Cruz. I think there were around 70 of them?
Most of them have been or are about to be retired and I don't think they're gonna get new ones to replace them.
I think they should replace all these unmarketed cars with carbon motors cars or another car designed specifically for the police department. They're safer for the officer and police presence helps keep crime down. So driving around unmarked cars is in my opinion not as safe for the officer and doesn't do as much to prevent crime. Yes it will lead to more tickets and they do serve a purpose... gang taskforces and things of that nature. But for general purpose I think they should have car more like this...

Camaros for big rigs makes total sense...
Lets have older cops be on the street doing foot chases
and have all the young athletic cops inside doing paperwork

I could be wrong, but I thought it was the last 300 Camaro's produced ( before they went out of production and came back with the new style ) were all specifically sold to law enforcement?
Yeah, that black car would definitely look intimidating rolling around town. Now it just needs the "To Punish & Enslave" logo across the side
I am pretty certain that San Ramon Police Department has at least 1 Charger as well ( actually I wouldn't be surprised if there are more Chargers around the area, I just don't see them that often ).

i didnt know CHP had chargers! no more looking out for those Crown Vic lights with blinkers on the inside...
Maybe it will be nice in 5 years when they all have chargers and the taxis still have crown vics...stupid taxis always thinkin theyre cops in the rearview.
