Porsche cop car...
 

Austrian police are testing a Porsche 911 as a traffic control car to help prevent motorists from speeding.

Austrian police are testing a Porsche 911 as a traffic control car. They say the sight of the 177mph sportscar makes speeding motorists slam on their brakes.

A spokesman said the £65,000 sports car, than can do up to 177mph, had been a major success and they are planning to buy more.

He said: "The preventive effect is excellent. Drivers just needed to see it parked alongside the road and they slammed on the breaks.

"The only thing is that it's a bit cramped. But there's still enough space for the essential equipment like the speeding radar and the breathalyser."

UK police vehicles are tuned up by BMW to be supreeeeeemely powerful anyway. So when you see a volvo police car... you may think you can outrun it in your porche ... but don't bother trying. It wont happen :)

Not if we could often see them on a car chase.. :thumbsup
