The PSNI seem to be rolling out a new fleet of Ford Focus Estates (to replace the Skodas?), they're just like the Merseyside one above, in standard white rather than grey/silver with the clear-covered LED lightbar, very smart.

Open day in Drogheda today. Went really well, and had quite a big turn out.


Some photos;


















There are more on my Pix account (click on the the photographs, or follow this link; http://pix.ie/chokeslamcena/album/387576 if you care). The Gardaì were really great today. I'd say they dreaded the thoughts of an Open Day, but they were really upbeat and happy for the whole day (despite probably crying inside, having to tell the same thing and answer the same questions to every person that walked past).


They let the kids play with the sirens in the Traffic Corps car/jeep they had, they explained the different ins and outs of their job, gave tours of the station, let people play with old guns and such that were out on display (I never knew Garda stations were assigned machine guns!). According to one of the guys, Dundalk will be getting a RSU soon?

It's actually a pity the RSU weren't at the open day. Would've been good to get talking to them. There was a Public Order officer though, who was nice to talk to.


I was quite surprised at the amount of older people there. I'd have assumed the vast majority would have been a parent being dragged along by their kids, and whilst there were kids getting photos in and around the Garda stuff, there were just as many people in their 20s, 30s, 40s and upwards getting photos on the Garda bikes and in the cars.


One thing that struck me as really good though, is that, when they landed the helicopter, even the Gardaì themselves turned into littled kids and were getting their photos taken with it. And I don't mean official photos for a newspaper or anything, i mean handing their phone over and "here John, get a shot of me with it!".

It's a tough job, no doubt, but it really brings a smile to my face when I see how enthusiastic and upbeat they are about their own profession. Fair play to them.


Considering the huge turn out, I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again sometime soon. That said though, I'm not quite sure why they bothered in the first place. It must have been a pain in the ass to organise, and I don't see how it benefitted AGS that much (except hopefully it was an 'easy day' for some of the lads, to try and boost station moral a bit).


One oddball thing; the Traffic Corp car pictured above, not only is it actually clean, but it also has a Hi-Lo tone. Just took me by surprise. Surely that's not on all Garda cars?

Victoria Police Traffic Management Unit... the device is meant to be very effective for use in detecting speed offences in heavy traffic.

I have been trying to get a decent photo of one of these for ages. Once again Vicpol TMU these are basically the standard workhorse of the traffic units. They range in colour this one is black but they can be Orange, green, blue , silver etc



In Standard Vicpol Livery


TMU operate several without light bars, as shown and in various colours


And of course some have no marking at all.

It was asked once what is the nicest looking Police car, for me this is it. It looks better on the road than these Pictures show.

I did a search but if this was posted before, please delete.

The guy did this on his last day working in the panel shop. Seemingly, it went un-noticed for some time !!!!!! :)
