Very interesting story on the WTVR website about a guy driving around the area actually using red lights and speeding. Best-looking vehicle I've ever seen...nothing at all like HamSexy. Apparently, he founded his own non-profit in order to register it with DMV as an emergency vehicle.

On the TV news they didn't mention any radio equipment, but they did say it was equipped with a siren. Unknown if he had used it. I think they finally nabbed him going 80 on Chippenham with the lights running.
I googled, but couldn't find better photos than the WTVR ones. Would be curious to know if some better ones are around. I haven't noticed any regular whackers or 'amber light clubs' around here, but knew a few from the security business years ago. If they're out there, it would interesting to know if they're using radio in their 'work.'
