    Three Affiliated Tribes (TAT) Law Enforcement (UPDATED 6/23)

    I talked with a tribal game warden in Michigan a few years ago.  They went to the federal wildland academy, the same academy as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service goes to.  They received their authority under federal law, but not through BIA.  The guy told me that they were going to be getting...

    2015 Ford F-150 (Retired)

    The Acari mount should still work on the new F150.  It is mounted through the third brake light.  Wires would be run through the brake light area.

    Ohio Highway Patrol Ford Utility & A Question

    Actually the Caprice does have a retail version now. It's called the SS. Both are Holden sedans, which will have production stopping in a few years as GM shuts off Holden production. I've heard that production of Both the Caprice and SS will change to the U.S. once Holden is shut down.

    Chevrolet Caprice PPV to get colum shifter

    When we replaced our Fords, we were told that we could not get a Ford (Taurus). We would either get a Chevy Caprice or a Charger. Well it takes so long to get a Caprice, from build, to ship, to retro-fit, then delivery, I figured we would get Chargers. Thats what we got. We got two Chargers...

    Help!!! Opinions on new 2013 Fusion install!

    The Fusion had a recall on the headlights. I know, because I have a 2012 Fusion and it was recalled. The Fusions recalled for Ecoboost problems were the ones with the 1.5 Ecoboost engine. This is an optional engine and most likely he has the 2.0 Ecoboost which is not being recalled...

    2012 Tahoe- Veterans Affairs Police

    Considering that everyone that goes to a VA hospital has been trained to kill, with many having killed someone, almost everyone has a mental health issue, what other type of force should be there. There is the potential to have some major violent outbreak, yet it doesn't happen because they...

    Agencies (other than MSP) That Have Used the Unity RV-26/46 Unibeacon

    The LED lights are amber lights. They use them when they want to be seen driving around the lots, but not on an emergency run. On the back deck, they have traffic advisors, with the end lights being red and blue. They have a few SUV's at some of their hospitals/clinics. The SUV's do not use...

    Michigan - Light bar VS interior light setup

    I have noticed that most ambulances and some fire department owned vehicles with interior or surface mounted lights. Several local cities seem to have no problem with them. Michigan Law requires a light that can be seen 360 degrees from the highest part of the vehicle, not lights inside that...

    Police Depts With Major Light-Color Changes Over Time

    The MSP slick tops with the red/blue lights to the front, are Linz6 mounted on a special metal mount. I had a chance to look at them at Canfield Equipment. I was thinking of having one of our cars changed to this from a slimlighter. Back in the mid 70's, there was two MSP cruisers patrolling...

    My Volunteer in Police Service Patrol Vehicle

    Where in Michigan is Forsyth? In SE Michigan a few departments have reserve/auxiliary police that have the red/blue lights, with several just using a regular patrol vehicle. Also the volunteer units are usually CERT units and are different from the reserve/auxiliary police. Hazel Park has the...

    Police Depts With Major Light-Color Changes Over Time

    Arizona law required red and amber lights until the 1980's. In California, it was a steady red to the front and a flashing amber to the rear. In the 1980's they started allowing blue on police cars, but the steady red to the front and flashing amber to the rear are still required. The...

    Michigan Law about clear lights to rear of a vehicle. NEED HELP

    There was a bill passed by the Senate (in 2010)but not the House that would require an amber light and the audible signal for private snow plows plowing parking lots and public streets. However it has not passed and still does not require a private snowplow to have the light. I had a guy at a...

    MSP Charger With half breed Beacons..................................

    The state is not buying new housing from Unity for the LED lights. What they are doing is when a light stops working (which is one of the reasons for the change), they are taking the old works out and putting the Whelen module in. When a new car is upfitted, they are changing out the inner...

    Prisoner Area Lighting

    We use the factory police work light. It was remounted behind the screen and a different work light was installed allowing us to either use a red or white light in the front. The factory light was then wired into one of the map lights.
