Two 18-year-old men have been charged with impersonating police officers after allegedly using a blue strobe light and siren to pull over a Perth driver.

Police spokesman Ros Weatherall said a 24-year-old man was driving along Marmion Avenue in Iluka in Perthâ€™s northern suburbs about 10am yesterday when a Holden Commodore drove up behind him.

â€œThis car then activated a blue strobe light and siren and flashed its headlights indicating for the man to pull over,â€

The thing is - it's so hard to determine (especially night) -if a unmarked car is trying to pull you over... - I guess it casts doubt for alot of people who are hearing or have experienced these so called wannabee cops...

none of these people acutly do anything , if they just say we got you doing 5 km/h over and let them off with a warning theyd just think he was
a cop having a good day.
besides , youd know it was a fake if they dont have duty belt on , there is
two of them and they dont have a blue strobe and dash lights.

Quite often I've had people hit the skids pretty hard as they drive past my car.

Yes, it's a late-model blue sedan and it has antennas on it, folks, but it looks nothing like a cop car. Quit doing that!
