Are you saying you dont have any unmarked police cars in the US? Over here in the UK we have to contend with Volvo T5R...BMW M5...etc etc. All have the following tell tale signs..No dealer sticker in the rear window or as we have over here,on the license plate, 2 interior mirrors..if they come up from behind you can just make out the blue lights hidden behind the grille,,and in the rear window a clever arrngement which pops up from horizontal saying"Stop Police"..Its strange over here how never think of the cost when putting in yet another speed camera at a cost of $30000 but complain bitterly about thelack of funds for the police!! We have a new system here now too which consists of 2 cameras about 5 miles apart on the freeway..A pic is taken of you if you go thru this at more than 10% over the limit and when passing the 2nd camera if you have done this in less than the time it should've taken then you receive a summons from the police in the post automatically...George Orwell eat your heart out!!!
