Reply to comment by KaneinEncanto in NYPD to redesign police cars, add 360-degree cameras by geoxol

Why redesign? This is standard on many cars. This is like the postal vehicle bs all over again. Don reinvent the wheel. Take a Prius and modify the back a bit. Done. Maybe some suspension. Just nuts this waste for politicians, cops, whatever.

Some dude in a $3,000 suit needs his rake-off, though

Is that where they beat you with a rake, while you crank the eggplant?

Lol could you imagine if police were forced to use a hybrid vehicle the blowback that would cause?!

A lot of the Ford escape interceptors are hybrid now.

Fun Fact

They have to program in an acceleration curve on EVs since they are capable of “instant torque”

Modify or take out that curve and you have a car with truly insane acceleration
