It was not an SSP and you are correct, it should have been a normal 4-eyed Mustang. Not me in the pic, (I snapped the pic) I just responded to "assist"

That's pretty cool that you took the pic. So in a situation like that, is the offender only issued a ticket, or is the car impounded? How much is the ticket? I'm glad that rocketscience only painted his roof white, which should avoid any legal entanglements yet still honor the car's CHP heritage.

I think I remember the conversation went kinda like this...

now boy....what we have here is a failure to communicate. You see, those white doors right there are illegal here in the great State of California. Yeh I understand you think it's cool to be a cop, but see here now.....you gots to be one to drive one.

oh and by the way.....your court date is listed right here on the bottom of this citation........

Suspended? LOL That sounds about right. The guy is suspended so he drives around in an illegal wanna be black and white. Funny stuff for sure.

I've made some progress.

Just as I stopped driving this evening to take a few photos, the sun dipped below the clouds. But it was a good opportunity to go lights-on:

I like it....the 4-eyed front is always great too.
