So, today I saw something I never have seen before. I was sitting in the drive thru lane at the bank when on my radar I noticed one of the wildly popular Ford F 150's with blue lights flashing on the side, and a car they had pulled over. Yep...it was a cop! Now, I would never think that a vehicle like that would be a police vehicle. I did see a white pick up that was a police vehicle doing traffic stops, but it did have county police markings on the back of it. I watched the whole thing and was wondering what the poor driver got accused of. It could have been something as simple as a brake light, but usually they just issue a warning with something like that..It was probably a real citation..poor people..that's 200 bucks down the drain Glad it wasn't me!

We've had them here in black trucks for years. Here, they are usually looking for distracted drivers, so anyone on their device gets pulled over.

I have never seen one in a black pick up truck before. Usually unmarked vehicles here look more or less like a police vehicle with the big antenna. They are fairly recognizable. You would never notice a vehicle like this especially at night.

@snowy22315 That's their plan, to catch drivers off guard-sneaky.
