Police Special Operations unit? I assume that is a fancy wording for OD traffic advisor.

Personally, for off-duty/OT details, I think they should only use officers from that jurisdiction, in department-owned vehicles, so that the officers are familiar with the area, using official vehicles, & have full comms capabilities with dispatch & other units in the vicinity. Personally, sticking OD detail officers all over the place in private units sounds like blackwater operators in Afghanistan/Iraq (they're external contractors that don't have all resources immediately available to them if they need to call for help or perform a certain task)
