Another Trooper sighting thread...

fwiw, was traveling east on I90 Sunday and saw an undercover Statie in a DPW accessway (just past 10A) sitting in a green Mustang GT. Not quite sure of my the year, as I am not too familiar w/ Mustangs specifically, but it looked like the more recent body style. He was speed trapping w/ laser, and tagged a Lexus that was just behind me. The 'stang lit up when in pursuit, lights in the windows/grille, you would never have guessed it was a Trooper. It was quick to catch the Lexus, we were going approx 80mph, and he caught it with little effort... On the way back, westbound, saw an undercover Dodge Intrepid speedtrapping...

That 2002 GT i have ran into many times. He trys to get you to run him. Its like you would have to be not paying attention to race that car. 1st the windows are so dark you can't see in the car. 2nd the car is wicked loud and you can see the lights in grille.

It's pretty sad the police do this ****.

I've seen that guy quite a bit on I-90. Just don't mess around when you see a green mustang.

Maybe the police should try to protect us from actual criminals instead of trying to bait us into racing...

Watch on on I95 and RT1 for a red Grand Prix GT. Black windows and you won't be able to see the stobes, they are the kind like plows have that are actully inside the head/tail lights.

A few weeks ago I saw a Navy Blue 2002+ Mustang GT with someone pulled over. Typical undercover blacked out windows, lights in the rearview and in the grille. Had the silver 5-star rims and said GT on the fender.

Look out for new Impalas on RT 2 and I 95.

Coming home from school one day I saw a new Impala and slowed down then drove right next to it(I was warned by a friend who has seen them pull over a lot of people). So I look in the window and the driver looked at me and nodded. There was no doubt in my mind that he was a statey. Those Impalas are sketchy because they are every where you just don't know. I HATE THIS STATES COPS

i was told that there was alot of people pretending to be cops and that what you do is put your hazards on and drive to a gas station to be safe. what i'd do is drive to the gas station get out and run around yelling "SAVE ME! SAVE ME! HE'S TRYING TO KILL ME!". maybe then he'll just decide its not worth it

I was on my way home tonite from ESP in ct. and on the mass pike i saw the undercover car that i couldn't believe.....it was a pearl white escalade it had the lights going on the side of the road with a car pulled over. I couldn't belive it. Imagine getting paid and you get to pimp the escalade. it was the suv not the ext one.

Any specs? Mods list? Dyno numbers? Or just hearsay? I find it odd that the Commonwealth would pump thousands of dollars to mod a Mustang to do a high speed pursuit that they are not even supposed to do.

I guess after the big dig, though, anything is possible.
