it looks pretty police car to me. Taxi always chooses brigh colors so ppl can see them. They'll never choose this dark maroon color

InvisibleSoul 05-15-2009 11:51 AM

Does the number say 873-5511?

If so, in Vancouver, it belongs to:

Laurel Prescriptions; 888 8th Ave W; Vancouver, BC; (604) 873-5511

ALEX1988 05-15-2009 11:53 AM

I always slow down when I saw this type of ford, even if it is a taxi..

steelies with silver center on a crown vic = always the popo

I've seen a taxi cop car here before. It was 2 tone, teal green body, and a white top part. The model was crown vic. At first glance it looks like an ex-taxi car with the logo's and top part that lights up taken off, but 2 butch caucasian guys wearing sunglasses with straight haircuts, with ear pieces, and the infamous insurance expiry date gave it away.

List of other cop cars I've seen:

volvo in burnaby (everyone's seen it)
ford fusion vancouver

camry in burnaby

I've seen decomissioned cop cars driven by regular citizens that still have the Crown Interceptor wheels...

A 1 ton?!

Just last week, I saw a 7th gen dark blue Honda Accord going pretty fast up Kingsway... thought it was an aggressive driver. Good thing I didn't try keepin up, because when he approached Victoria Drive going eastbound, he turned on the lights to cross it. :p

Yeah didn't get to see what was inside though.

Chase it and if the cop looks at you and is like WTF SLOW DOWN just be like "I was just trying to be a vigilante, and report your car in and tell YOU to slow down, sir!" just kidding. flame on guys flame on..
