On the other hand covering the emergency lights makes the car appear innocent till you see the woman/man on the side of the road wearing a yellow vest indicating you to pull over...diggity wrote:no high vis = danger

Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
I really dont think the boot lid is that high
Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
Whilst I'm struggling to find a suitable picture, you will find the boot of most vehicles (definitely the wagon's) will obscure the light bar
Example and this.

Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
Do they have lights in the tail light set up that also flash? I have seen this on some vehicles not in WA thou
Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
Ahhh yes I *have* seen this on *a* WA Police vehicle featured on The Force.
However that's the only time I've seen it, so I don't think many vehicles have that installed. But yes many overseas (NZ & US) have that.
Heck even the stock new generation of RAC van's have LED flash units in the rear boot door when its up.

Speaking of RAC they could always get the ones that lift up in the air on a scissor jiggy or have the micky mouse lights that swing out
Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
Hah I've raised that before
But yes anyway also the next best thing (again usually overseas) is putting a couple of flashers in the boot under the lid so when its up they turn on and face backwards.

The boot is open to uses such as what Tyranus stipulated.

Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
LOL.. yes i have never ever known an open boot to be a safety hazard by blocking lights... anyway the boot is only ever opened for the SHORTEST amount of time... its never left open especially unattended... and the hi-vis markings are not any more visable than the standard markings from the rear of the vehicle... my oppinion is that if you cant see an emergency vehicle when its lights are operated, regardless if the boot is open or closed.. you are NOT paying enough attention and should not be driving on the road?!written_ficton wrote:I'm sorry but what on earth are you on about....

Whoa! I've seen traffic cars on numerous occasions parked on the side of the road with the boot open and officers sitting/leaning on the back of the car operating laser speed detectors. They leave the boot open to hide the lights to conceal the fact they are doing speed checks.

The NSW cars have flashing reverse lights and blinkers when the lights are activated , a fair few of the cars have now replaced the reverse lights with blue and red led'syorky wrote:Ahhh yes I *have* seen this on *a* WA Police vehicle featured on The Force.

Re: !!Scoop!! TE206 & TE210 Silver FG Falcon's
There is a difference however between a Police vehicle at a crime/accident/other incident where flashing lights and visibility are required (especially if on the road), compared to be parked without the need for any lights or visibility.
