35 Police and Law Enforcement Innovations

— December 11, 2008 — Autos
The police have, on occasion, been the target of criticism, but as I see it, the world would lose all control if it wasn’t for our fabulous boys in blue.

This cluster of law enforcement trends covers everything from pimped out police supercars and Indian truth serum to virtual police in China and cardboard cops for your home. There are new crime deterrent tactics like bar coasters showing injured people to help stop drinking and driving, and fake cop cars on billboards to slow down speeders.

Personally, I love the bunny ear flashing blue lights in Japan and the Italian Lamborghini police car that has 560 HP - good luck lawbreakers!
