MY THOUGHTS: 1. If the GOAL is to stop people from speeding, then make yourself noticeable, that in itself will cause many to self check their own speed. 2. If the GOAL is to increase tickets/finance then unmarked cars is the way to go. 3. It use to be illegal for officers to hide behind signs etc in order to catch someone. Had the driver seen the officer he/she would have self checked. 4. It's a danger to have unmarked cars, people are less likely to pull over thinking it's not a real officer, which in it self will cause an officer to become angry that the person isn't pulling over. 5. The cars are pretty, but I don't think that's the way to go. Officers need to be set apart, not blend in. We need to know that police are out and about, it's good to see them, it brings a sense of security to the public.

People do self check speed when there's a cop, yes; but, there's simply not enough officers out there for people to always check their speed. And in today's world where law-enforcement employment numbers are down, there's a lot of opportunities for drivers to speed unchecked. Plus, how many times have you seen a cop on a freeway, the cop gets off, and traffic speeds right back up? Deterrence by presence only goes so far

Say what? It was never illegal to "hide" behind signs. Or other cars. It was considered better policy to use high visibility to "encourage" everyone to slow down.

This is a good conversation to have. I was pulled over when I was 30 in south FL by an unmarked police minivan. I entered an empty school bus in a parking lot as instructed by the driver to collect a ball I had left on a playground. The local police was in an unmarked minivan staking out that parking lot looking for thieves breaking into cars. Unluckily, me retrieving my ball from the school bus looked very suspicious. The unmarked minivan followed me for about a mile before I noticed the blue lights, then another mile for me to find a busy parking lot to pull over. The whole time I was thinking... Am I being pulled over by a minivan? thankfully he was in full uniform and explained why he pulled me over and why he was driving the unmarked, and I explained why I was acting conspicuously. We reconciled and went on our way, but it could have ended a lot worse in different circumstances.

Drivers know when they are significantly above speeds limits or being reckless. However, most of the time, they don't care. So, there are no big surprises when the lights and sirens come on. Consequently, I have no problem with using these vehicles for high speed pursuit or surveillance.

This is especially true driving alone at night where flashing roof lights are more visible.

[@aigtrader2984]

Here is a fun fact for you, none of these cars are legal. When you put warning lights on the car, they are required to display a certain amount of lumens. (they are usually also required to be visible 360°) By placing them behind tinted windows they reduce that between 50 and 90%, it puts the car out of spec and technically not permitted to be used. Not that anyone follows that law. As for the vehicles, being unmarked, I have seen plenty of departments that use a film that is basically one or two shades, darker, or lighter than the paint that does say, police, but if you weren't paying attention, you would never see it. I can see the benefit of the use of these unmarked cars in specific circumstances, but there is a reason why most jurisdictions in the country ban the use of unmarked cars to do traffic stops

[@baddriversofthenorcalarea500]

"but there is a reason why most jurisdictions in the country ban the use of unmarked cars to do traffic stops" There is no jurisdiction in the United States where unmarked cars cannot perform traffic stops. They cannot be used primarily for traffic enforcement, but they are still allowed to make stops. "they are required to display a certain amount of lumens. (they are usually also required to be visible 360°) By placing them behind tinted windows they reduce that between 50 and 90%" Not if they are TIR lenses. Also, manufacturers do not produce them to meet the lumen requirements, they produced they to drastically exceed those requirements, so even if they were tinted, they still meet requirements.

I remember I was speeding and an unmarked vehicle started flashing it’s light behinds me, so I went to take the exit, all of a sudden it keeps going straight with its lights off. I hate unmarked vehicles it makes me panic. Need to stop that nonsense honestly

[@baddriversofthenorcalarea500]

Good way to catch a felony.

[@jjc4577]

Here in Colorado, we had a girl killed by someone impersonating a police officer using red and blue lights in an otherwise non-descript car to pull her over. How are we, as citizens to know that the car behind us is a legit police car since stealth is the point here. It seems to me that the need to catch speeders and add dollars to the local coffers might be a tad reckless. I would also say that the fact that the Rand corp can't track whether there was a change in accidents was interesting, it is not a secret that the additional revenue generated is welcome in the agencies eyes. We had a police chief here move to using marked cars exclusively (and even went back to a black and white paint scheme) so that it was visible to all the motorists that traffic enforcement was happening. He also wanted his citizenry to see the police cars patrol neighborhoods and be visible rather than seeing a grey Explorer with all the windows tinted so dark you couldn't see the lights or the fact the driver was wearing a uniform.

[@i_love_games110]

ways to determine a fake cop from real cop 1: amount of flashing lights (usually around 6-9 leds per side) 2: wigwags (headlights or foglights flash) 3: if you can see well enough, whether the person in the car is in a uniform 4: car (police will usually either use expensive/fast cars, explorers, crown vics, chargers, and the taurus) 5: hubcaps (cop cars usually don't use them) 6: siren (if they're used it's probably a cop, sirens are expensive and annoying to set up)

[@mikedaleiden7725]

I love it. We need more of them until the stupidity on FL roads stops. We already have too many drivers cruising at triple digit speeds combined with people too stupid to use signals and drivers too stupid to get out of the left lane. Add that to Florida's huge number of uninsured or suspended license drivers on the road. If Florida were a country, this would be a 3rd world country.

[@tomasleitao1775]

This is just sad, more control, more government authority, more encroachment from the part of law enforcement. Florida is supposed to be a free state, not an orwellian police state where everything you do is being monitored and where you are forced to drive like an old lady at all times, this is just disgusting.

[@SSvan0]

Exactly! Dude I have recorded police for years since dashcams came out. Police are such hypocrites, they are just your neighbor in a costume breaking laws just like everyone else. I’m over this nonsense

[@SHUJINCELL]

Never pull over to an unmarked vehicle, ever. If you find yourself being followed by a vehicle with lights, keep driving without stopping, and don't break any laws while being followed. You're not legally obligated to stop in this circumstance. Do not pull over until you see a marked unit. Have the marked unit pull you over as a marked vehicle is the type which has the legal authority to do so. Don't break the law after you see lights and the case is automatically dismissed in court because the operation is beyond illegal. If you wanted to have some fun, you can technically and legally run for free but if you can't lose the unmarked car by the time the patrol joins, you're mildly stuck. Although a clear example of violating everyday citizens, appears law enforcement is doing this in the daytime so seems to be a program to keep drivers safe, at hours you should be driving the safest. They're mainly targeting "idiot drivers" with this operation.

[@SMUGLORD]

There goes our taxes.

[@Regulus3333]

This should be illegal

[@DONUT2858]

I think there needs to be more of this. Having the marked units just encourages the speeders and lawbreakers to only follow the law when they see an officer

[@Lugtastic]

A Challenger flying up behind you going 15 over and weaving without their blinker wouldn't entice you to have fun and do the same? Maybe you're 60 and don't enjoy shit like that but I'd say a majority of teens would hop right along and start doing it. They're causing more problems driving these cars than solving them. They make their money, what do you personally gain? Someone going a little over the limit isn't gonna hurt anyone and if it does they shouldn't be driving in the first place because they're simply incapable.

[@tehsnipatres208]

This is actually pretty dangerous. This country already has a horrible Police impersonation problem. Do you know why I love regular marked police cars with cops in uniform? Because I know who they are. If I see a Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, or any other car not known to be a regular Police car trying to pull me over, I’m stepping on the gas, dialing 911 & I’m not stopping until I officially know who that person is. Unmarked cars should NOT be allowed to make traffic stops. Ever. It’s kinda hard to train the general public about Police impersonators when you allow this.

[@irocitZ]

I've always thought this was a good idea, except when I was younger. I pretty much drive similar cars to the ones I did when I got my license 30 years ago, the difference now is I don't need to race every Camaro I see. What I do see nowadays is people constantly speeding for no reason, usually on a side street in a BMW or Mercedes which is really dumb. Because of that I've seen my neighborhood turn into streets with speed-bumps, red light and speeding cameras everywhere but unfortunately it's become necessary because of these little A-holes. I say more undercover police cars, there's a time and place for driving fast but a side street is not one of those places.

The problem with the minds of these arrogant drivers is that the first second they see a modern day hot rod, their testosterone and jealousy take over and they slam on the gas. As if that will prove they are a superior man. These guys know that the Charger/Challengers are super fast, and it bruises their ego. I find the undercover cars a great idea because this issue is widespread.

@J.C... I pulled up to him quickly before I noticed, and also the guy behind me kept peeking around indicating him he wants to pass. So yea he was definitely baiting going under 5.
