If you didn't notice the shark fins on the truck three posts above, Sharks are popular with the San Jose FD. Even the indicators on this one are shark shaped.

Those shark trucks are a bit mad. Never seen anything like that before.

Always thought gardai could do with having push bars on the front of their cars like in other countries. Saw a garda in an avensis chasing a suspect the other day and was just thinking they could do with having one to protect the front of the car from damage like below or if they ever need to nudge a car into a stop or pin it in.

AGS aren't allowed ram/nudge/pit other cars, most Garda Drivers are driving on permission of the C/Supt, the rest are mainly trained in defensive driving, ie driving safely and responding to dangers etc, very few have the advanced courses done where they train stopping techniques like the americans use, thats reserved for the elite units, ERU, RSU, some traffic corps. 90% of AGS have to rely on the other car crashing, running out of fuel or getting a stinger out in time... i'd say its mainly down to the cost of equipping the cars with bars but also AGS top brass not trusting their drivers not to ram old ladies off the road for running a red light

I wonder if it could be a contact truck? Basically a small mechanic's shop/recovery vehicle on wheels, hence the winch. Current US Army contact trucks are HMMWV based, but this was the predecessor.


Then again, you can find a winch on anything. The thing could be the mobile armoury with a turret mounted pop-up minigun for all we know.

One of the Secret Service lads told me it is an Ambulance.

Hat's off to the Garda that helped me get this shot;






I'm actually really fond of the above shot. I love how grim it is (dark street, no other cars/people around, rain clearly dropping in front of the lights, can't see in the windows, etc.).

Now, if only I could do the same with more ES vehicles.
