Sweet REACT ride!!

I really like the Findlay PD graphics! As for the REACT car...sighhhhhhh.

 

[Ipuvaepe]

At least the REACT car has a full exterior lightbar, can't say that for most I have seen... Did they crash the party or were they invited? Doesn't matter to me, but I feel this needs to be asked (sadlyz0rz...).

 

[Station 3]

I like the way the radar is mounted outside one of the units next to the lightbar. I did not know you could do that.

 

[Fluffy126577]

Not sure but that's how the patrol has been doing it for years.

 

[FireEMSPolice]

Some OSP units have the radar antenna mounted on the exterior.


Also, why is REACT crashing the party? Who the fuck invited them?

The Appleseed ambulance looks sharp; I like the blue and grey stripes.

There are some negative reactions to REACT. Years ago, REACT would show up at fires, accidents and any other types of incidents around L.A. that they found out about. I find the negativity to be interesting because I always thought they were odd people, apparently unable to become real HAM radio operators, who do provide very critical services. REACT members seemed to be very geeky men and women who were severely afflicted by wannabee fever. They seemed to be always in the way, trying to direct traffic, restrict access, and essentially play cops. I think L.A. area sheriffs, police, and fire personnel had a very negative opinion of RACT also. REACT seems to have disappeared years ago in L.A., or at least I haven't seen them at emergencies. Sorry if I offended some members here who may belong to REACT, but I really had negative opinions about REACT in L.A. Maybe elsewhere they are great.
