Subject: Color Schemes Author: Jim Yurgealitis [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 19:49:07 12/08/02 Sun In reply to: Dan 's message, "Ohio Highway Patrol to change color of their cruisers" on 15:58:35 12/02/02 Mon It's interesting to see that Oh H 10 HP is changing color so that motorists can see them better. Until the early 90's Maryland State Police were a nice, easy to see from a distance light beige / tan, and yellow before that in the 70's. With their current olive / black combination they are next to impossible to see when on the shoulder (especially when you come up on the in excess of 80 MPH lol). If they dropped the lightbar and went with a few slicktops you might as well paint them woodland camo.......you'd never see them. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date I think that moron over at cowardlycops.com ought to hear about those camo cop cars in Maryland. I'm sure he'd find that they violate our civil rights! (NT) Coleman Canoes for everybody! 22:35:48 12/08/02 Sun Geez, who gives a crap...if you were out there catching speeders you'd maybe appreciate a dark colored car. Believe me, the Troops aren't too fond of the new "bright" colors.

(NT) -- Henry Ford, 18:23:06 12/10/02 Tue Now that I'm up anyway, thanks to Mike B.... that's crunchEs. One of the funny little quirks in the English language. (NT) -- Sherlock Spellchecker, 22:46:53 12/10/02 Tue Don't get me wrong, white cars will look way better than dark grey, but from a practical perspective, the grey cars are probably much more effective when "surprising" unsespecting speeders. -- Mike B., 22:06:27 12/10/02 Tue oops...I mean "unsuspecting" speeders. (NT) -- Mike B., 22:10:49 12/10/02 Tue errhhhh... too late, you spelled it, you bought it. unsUspecting! (NT) -- Sherlock Spellchecker, 22:43:58 12/10/02 Tue "I am 'drawn' towards them"...Have you given any thought to changing your name to bughawke. (NT) -- Fumey Gator, 13:16:29 12/11/02 Wed
