There are hundreds of agencies that use the Caprice. We didn’t choose it because Chevy said hey we have 900 Impalas we need to dump and they are super cheap. So of course the city fell for it and they are absolute crap. 2015 and 2016 Impalas with insane issues. I’ve had a complete AC system swap, power steering…

You are correct. That deck is by a company called Havis. They make hardware mounts for all types of police fleet vehicles. Quite expensive. That mount and just a computer mount runs around $800-$1000. The radio, light controller etc can be mounted on it also. Just loosen the nuts and you can slide them along the…

They don’t. I’ve had a 2012 Caprice for 2 months while my Impala police cruiser was being fixed.

Could have been an unmarked detectives car. Our department has switched from the Impala to the Tarus and will have hundreds of unmarked Impalas up for grabs really soon.

Good riddance. Now please get rid of the team completely and make sure the NFL never allows Jacksonville to have another team. EVER.

Your powers of oberservation are astounding.

Yeah I don’t get what the big deal is. The past 2 weeks here in Jacksonville have sounded like a warzone. F16 and FA-18s flying all over the city and off the coast. Carrier take off and landings along with whatever else they are doing. Then again we have Mayport and Cecil airfield so it’s quite common.

I have never laughed so hard until I read this. This right here made my day. Thank you. Your take on table runners is the same problem I have with them. I fucking hate them!

The quality of reports boil down to agency standards, training, and the Sgt that approves them. I have had Sgt’s who didn’t read and just approved reports to having Sgt’s that nitpick the hell out of them. I’m not either of what you described. Officers that write bullshit reports don’t last long. It will inevitably…

Hahaha this right here. A Beagles nose has a mind of its own. My beagle is only open to suggestions. There is no telling her this is how it’s going to be.

Get butt hurt more you keyboard jockey. Of course they detained and questioned him you mongoloid. Also, try harder.

Of course they aren’t at the scene. We have ASA on call and every department has general counsel that has a direct link to the DA. ....which can be reached by phone! OH MY GOD NO WAY RIGHT!? You can be detained, questioned at headquarters and released. NO WAY REALLY!? Yes, really. Thanks for the good laugh 😂😂😂😂

Ah yes. I’ve been reading them as they come in from various places. Quite a lot.

Um, being in law enforcement I can tell you that their unclear reason as to why the charges were dropped the first time DOES NOT fall on them. It falls on the state. We get there, write the report, make the arrest of it’s a felony/misdemeanor exception and move on. If there isn’t an arrest / suspect isn’t there, we…

The PA on my cruiser is without a doubt the best piece of equipment on it. I constantly drive by people who are stopped, see me, then slowly grab their seatbelt and put it on. If I catch it a ways out, which is more often than not. I’ll grab the mic and say, “don’t put it on for my sake. It’s your life, not mine”.…

FL law is pretty great when it comes to windshield replacement. As long as the crack obstructs the drivers view, you can get it replaced once a year without paying your deductible or having your rate go up. That being said, obviously there was something wrong with that original windshield. Having lived in Fl my entire…

I need to find this fuse on my wife’s car. I’d love to disable them so they aren’t on during the day time. Hate the fact the HIDs are burning needlessly during the day.

Don’t like it? Sorry, not sorry. I couldn’t care less about your opinion regarding officers. I have seen too many fatalities to let people off with a warning. I was first on scene last week on two separate fatialites and the victims were casualties of negligent motorists. Both could have been easily prevented, but the…

There is FL statute that says head lamps will be turned on when raining.

Here’s what I’m finding out because I just noticed my wife’s car does something weird (I never drive it because I drive my police cruiser every where). On her Corolla they are set to auto. However the DRL are pretty much full on headlights, but the rear lights do not turn on. You have to manually twist the headlights…
