Most likely, unless the car is on a traffic op. You'd be listening to channel 58 in the northern suburbs.

Yep i think they do,
Although anytime I've been in a car thats pulled over, Im never game enough to sit and listen when the cops are standing right next to the car!


According to the frequencies sticky in here, Northern Suburbs Enquiries is channel 58- 469.275

When my step dad and i got pulled over by the undercover Kwin cop car, i wished i had of had my scanner on me, it would have been good to hear what they brought up. I would have also known the call sign for the car too. JG103

JG-103 just out of interest what GD's cars have you got down there in Kwinana.

I know VK103 is a Rodeo van.

What are the rest VK101, VK102 etc etc.??

Thats All I kno About my area.... Hope it helps anyone

Cheers for that Millsy.

Kwinana sounds a bit lacking in vehicles, with VK103 being the only GD's tasking car. I bet it gets hammered.

Tom

Yeah it copps a fair ole beating ... Most of there chases resultl in off road

Millsy,

I'll answer both questions here:

If you look at this link and check out WA Police August from memory, I have posted a pic of VK103 brand new and yet to be delivered.

JG-103,

Technically speaking NO it's not illegal, as long as you are not preventing the vehicle from undertaking it's lawful duty or you are not taking intricate pictures of the cars, such as communications gear it's fine.

If you see a car parked on the side of a public road to the best of my understanding that's fine.

Although I think you'd find yourself in a spot of bother if you stuck your head over the rear wall of say Curtin House with your camera.

Under the law you can photograph anything that's in public view.

Most coppers are cool, I don't take too many pics of unmarked cars and they are boring in my opinion.

I saw UQ107 yesterday in Maylands, explained to the SGt driving that I take pics of Emergency vehicles and he was cool with it.

oz_police_vehicles which is a yahoo group is the one we all post pics on, a quick search and you'll find it.

Cool, thanks for that Tom, yeah, here in kwinana, we are a bit short, the only operating car we have a night is the trusty ol VK103 rodeo, along wit one or two AV, but VK103 generally stays only in Kwinana. VK101 is a commodore, VK102 is a commodore and thats all we have, VK103 is always on shift, your lucky if you see the others.

I saw a a recent pic of VR202, it's a VZ sedan.

Any idea if VK101 and VK102 are marked or unmarked??


Tom

is that the picture on the webpage ? If so i took that one

Both marked, i thought the unmarked red cop car was a VK but Millsey says its a AV, he prob knows so, yeah. JG103

Yeah its Deffo a red one cause wen they do RBT's Down the road i pop down and have a chat with them ...

sorry, RBTs? JG103
