I have heard that the Los Angeles Police Department follows this policy, but have not confirmed it.  However, local police in the Philadelphia area DO make traffic stops using unmarked cars.<![if !supportLists]>-          <![endif]>An unmarked police car will most likely have MANY lights, mounted inside the car, and usually red, blue and white.  In addition, the headlights might be designed to blink alternately.  In other words, the car probably will not have only one single flashing light, but probably instead will look like the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lol. <a href="http://www.rockefellercenter.com/tour-and-explore/the-tree-at-rockefeller-center/">www.rockefellercenter.com/tour-and-explore/the-tree-at-rockefeller-center/</a> I hope this information helps.Calvin Sun610-296-3947<a href="mailto:csun@calvinsun.com">csun@calvinsun.com</a><a href="http://www.calvinsun.com">www.calvinsun.com</a>��17:15</div></body></html>
