CHP Tests New Prototype Patrol Car
OAKLAND -- Coming to freeways soon...
CHP officers will be prototyping the Dodge Charger Pursuit as a supplement to their fleet of Ford Police Interceptor Utility Vehicles.
If they are anything like the new SUV's we're seeing more and more on Bay Area freeways, this prototype will be equipped with bullet-resistant doors, and 'Pursuit Mode,' which activates precision handling and a plethora of other features not found on civilian cars.
According to Police Magazine, the Dodge Charger Pursuit got a lot of upgrades in the cockpit in 2015, including a 7-inch instrument screen, and Bluetooth as standard equipment.
In white, this CHP Dodge Charger looks like a muscle-car on steroids. The new headlamp styling looks cool, but this definitely is not the pair of headlights drivers want to see in their rear-view mirrors. If they do, they should slow down... or get out of the way.
