Interesting things you look up on Wikipedia when bored...

Post by vk6hgr »

After a marathon run of watching episodes of Cops, Traffic Cops, Police 10-7 and Street Patrol I got into a bit of aimless Wikipedia searching :-)

Did you know?

- 19 States in the US don't requite vehicles to have front license plates?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/License_Pl ... nce_plates

- Western Australia offers the largest number of characters on a custom license plate?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian ... _Australia

- The Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor is one of the most widely used vehicles by US Police forces, but UK police prefer the Volvo V70 T5?
