407

I was on the 407 today and saw a dark blue Chrysler mini van with the OPP lights flashing on the dash. He had some unsuspecting motorist pulled over. So heads up for blue vans.

Have one with a hemi in Brampton as well. It's nice to see our city's finest keeping us safe from maniacs with sports cars and filling the pockets of city hall with our hard earned money, all the while leaving the pedophiles, rapists, drug dealers, and murderers (excuse me if I missed anyone else) running loose making life miserable for citizens.

It's somewhat true.................................... ...

It used to be fair...big black and white cars or at least with the roof of lights with POLICE written all over the vehicle AND certainly not skulkin or hiding like a coward in the bushes....

York Region - parked full-size white van with the back doors open - radar unit inside which, from a distance, was completely in the shadow. A block down the road were cops running out into traffic to nab the offenders.
