Mufti cop warnings

[shafty]

Bay of Plenty/Waikato: Black Maxima on the Kaimai's; Blue Maxima on Hinuera straights/Karapiro. Metallic light (bright) new model green Toyota Aurian (Camry) hanging around Cambridge open road areas.

Saw a metallic green Commodore S registration BHE812 on the southern motorway today. Driving in the left lane in a modern car at 90km/h really gives them away...

Howick,East Auckland,White late model Holden Commodore station wagon.

When you see mufti cops in Grey Bongo Mazda 4 wheel drive vans you know you haven't got a chance anymore

[edsta]

Saw a blue holden crewman in hasting, on pakowhai rd one night last week. Disco Ham also got a green hsv too

[theblacksmith]

New commodore greyish/brown metallic
Reg no DTK 4. Keep em coming boys and girls.
NZ Cops should all go and have a picnic on the side of a German Autobahn I reckon.

So let me get this straight, the police have all sorts of cars with varying degrees of covertness, they ship them all over the country and change them all regularly. Half the fleet has probably changed since this thread started. So just a thought... why don't you just keep it legal (and safe) and stop wasting time memorising a licence plate of a car thats probably long since been sold off?.... just a thought

A waste of your breath (well typing), I said much the same somewhere in this thread and was almost yellow-carded.

Whatever turns their crank, whatever turns their crank I guess.....

Yet I see the same ones... over and over and over again. They obviously don't move them around that much.

They are just the ones you see

Are you sure you have to worry about those ones you keep seeing - i.e. are they traffic as opposed to LREP, YAS, CIB and half the alphabet that AREN'T traffic??

I see them all. I havent had a ticket since '93, and that was in the car. Besides, who aside from traffic have fluoro-vests and Stalker DSR units?

Ah, the floru vests - best left sitting on the set.

And some black mesh draped over the rear red'n'blues and the radar seem to help with blending in.

Fact: yes, you probably ARE seeing the same cars a fair bit (the prehistoric sense where once a danger has been seen the eye picks it up more easily the next time you see it)

But the random cars you don't spot are likely to be the ones moved around the country.

OK I thought I'd start this thread so if anyone identifies an undercover cop car they can post it here and other (completely law abiding and non speeding lol) kiwibiker's can watch out for them

facts only please no discussion. Start a new thread if you want to discuss things on here.

moderators can you please delete or move any discussion posts and would it be too much to make this a sticky?

cheers

[scorpious]

ok Ill start

Its an orange holden comodor with the numerplate EFB509

its was spotted on the state highway 2 between dannyvirk and woodvill

I think this was done a while back (edit: Yep, here it is the mods have merged), and concluded that they could be white, green, blue, brown, red, black or any other colour, and usually but not always Commodores, except for the few Camry's and Astras out there plus some Hi Lux's and they don't always have lights in their windows or are driven by uniformed Police. Some printed out the possible reg numbers and referred to "The List" when they thought they saw one.

It turned into a bit of a train-spotting-type exercise ("ohhh I saw the NZ Rail #3456 on the main trunk line yesterday oooeeer I was well chuffed" sort of thing).

Good on ya for having a go though
