Possibly Wickham has another vehicle (unmarked?) which is PW201.
Maybe they found it easier to remove the S when it was PS202 to turn it to PW202.

Re: WAPol Wickham/Dampier/Karratha
Wickham only has one Traffic car, currently with the callsign PW202. The vehicle was formerly a Traffic car in South Hedland with the callsign PS202. When the vehicle was transferred the 'S' was changed to a 'W' but changing the last number from a '2' to a '1' was either forgotten, overlooked or not considered a necessity . The Wickham officers were quite bemused when i asked them what their other Traffic car was . When i said "well if that is 202, what kind of car is your 201?" they explained the situation.LighteningCrashes wrote:Why is wickham traffic car pw202 and dampiers pd201?
Dampier also only has one Traffic car with the more standard PD201 callsign.
