JG-103,

I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but what are Crash Cars>? Are they the new Police Pursuit cars? Highway Patrol?

So do the crash cars cruise around different areas until they are required for a job? There cant be many of them cause normally when VKI asks if there are any crash cars on air, there is generally no reply, so does any body know how many dedicated crash cars there are?
Thanks all :D

They are the Fremantle Crash Cars. They service the freo and surrounding areas. There is always a crew on 24/7

AV 252
Kwinana Crash - They are only Part Time

Crash cars are only required when there are injurys, or if they have nothing else to do (which is hardly ever considering there are over 30 000 crashes reported in WA alone which need investigating)

Cheers
A!
