There are more and more states allowing police departments to patrol the streets in unmarked police cars. What are unmarked police cars?

These vehicles are not your typical police vehicles. These vehicles range from suv's to sports cars. They aren't equiped with top mounted emergency lights and don't have any decals on the door that read POLICE/ SHERIFF or For Emergency Call 911.  They are often confused for civilian vehicles because they lack these standard markings.

Unmarked police vehicles are utilized more and more daily as patrol vehicles. This is legal in most states as long as the vehicle is equipped with red or blue lights and the officer is in uniform. These lights often hidden inside headlamps and in the vehicles front grill or even in the sun visors inside the vehicle that can be folded down when officer wants to make a traffic stop. 

I propose a bill that would require all police vehicles in the United States that are being used for the sole purpose of patrolling or making traffic stops MUST be clearly marked. The patrol vehicles doors should clearly be labeled POLICE/ SHERIFF in bold font.

The vehicle MUST have a lightbar mounted on the roof. This makes all police vehicles much more visable during high speed pursuits. Police vehicles that are unmarked are a danger to society when in pursuit of criminals. This is due to no markings on the vehicle and limited visibility of the emergency lights. This is a result of the emergency lights being concealed to make the police vehicle more hidden or unmarked. 

Detectives and sergeants or various LEO employess would still be able to possess unmarked vehicles because they are investigating crimes or performing administrative duties, not making routine traffic stops with the general public. They should never be used for traffic violations or to pursue criminals. 

A police car that is easily identifiable deters crimes. Multiple studies have shown crimes don't occur while there is a police presence in the area. It also allows any citizen that may need immediate help to flag down the police for assistance, after all that is why the police are here. The words "To Serve & To Protect" is just as it says. The police are public servants here to serve and protect "US" THE PEOPLE

Why would any police department possess a 2-door Ford Mustang with temporary license plates?

How about a white Ford F-350 pick-up truck?

Both vehicles are unmarked. They have no lettering on the doors and no roof mounted emergency lights. Police departments across the country are using these type of vehicles for the sole purpose to patrol and ticket drivers to generate revenue.

The law should state clearly that any public servant in a uniform with the sole purpose of enforcing the laws and protecting the people should be required to drive an appropriate vehicle that is highly visable and clearly states their official position on all sides of the vehicle to include front and rear.  All decals should be reflective and large enough to be read from a distance. 

The front of the police vehicle should in bold font state the word POLICE in reverse ECILOP/ or SHERIFF in reverse  FFIREHS. All decals should be reflective and large enough to be read from a distance. Decals should be large enough to be transcribed from any rear view mirror or side mirrows while the police are behind a vehicle. This would make it much easier to identify the police without hesitation. 

There have been to many police impersonations over the past few years leaving many innocent people murdered because they pulled over for an unmarked police car. The laws are very vague on what happens to police vehicles after the state or county sells them. The auctioned police interceptors often end up being sold to the public.
