NYPD Call Signs

[Randinel]

No point making a new thread when this is very on topic to what im asking

Anybody know what the NYPD chiefs use as callsigns? Assuming Car ##, the only list I can remotely find is from 2004, and its missing some stuff like the CO for Staten Island, etc.

Hi. Nnlike other departments, they don't use CAR. They instead, a bit like ranks below, use there division or bureau, and rank.
E.G:
Queens south CO, SRG CO, etc

That's interesting, I thought since they are so close with FDNY that they'd carry a similar naming convention of Car identifiers for chiefs.

This is the link of that 2004 document I'm on about: NYPD CAR ASSIGNMENTS

Was 'Cars' something phased out recently? Somebody else mentioned how the Commissioner is Car 1 in this thread from an earlier post

It seems there's only one type of person who can get away with seriously messing up a cop car: a firefighter.

Maybe a figure or speech

Wrecking RMPs are just ordinary battle of the badges between FDs and PDs lol
