Yesterday, on my way to work, the freeway slowed down as it normally does around the 91 and 57. I glanced over and noticed there was a Ford Expedition and some other random car pulled over to the side. Yet… as I looked closer, there was a cop getting into that grey, plain, unmarked Expedition! So, I had a flash of “oh, he’s just checking something out in there” or whatever. But as I passed by, I noticed that embedded in the front grill were two lights – one red and one blue.

Apparently, police/CHP folks are crusing around in big ol’ unmarked SUVs, patrolling our roadways unnoticed. Yikes! I had heard that some were now driving all-white Cameros, but I’d not heard about the Expeditions. Is this just an OC thing? Has this been going on for a while? Will I get a speeding ticket as I innocently floor it past a giant, gas-gusling SUV? We shall see…
