[JimmyMSP]

@nutkicker89 Haha, yeah... The coolest are the NY State Police and the Tennessee I believe :)

I've never heard of an LED rotating beacon ... or do you mean they have LED light bars? It's amazing how in southern California so many police vehicles are still using just one red spot light, or old, sun damaged bars with rotating beacons that you can barely make out. Here in NY, some of the newest bars just about give people headaches or seizures!! Anyway, thanks for the reply

@fire214 Theres a couple of reasons. One, its tradition. Whenever you see it you think Michigan State Police, so they are keeping tradition. Another reason its kept is because it works well. There isnt anything wrong with it really... Its bright, gets the job done, so really no reason to switch to a full size. And lastly, the bubble has good aerodynamics. MSP is able to achieve higher speeds (not to high) because air rushes around the bubble when driving fast, where air hits a lightbar and stops

@JimmyMSP sooo why dont they get a lightbar and get rid of the bubble can u give me some insite im clueless

[ibmark2u2]
