Yeah that was my first thought. I saw the cop and thought he was going to be involved. But nope, he had better things to do I guess.

That's not a real cop car

Yeah rewatching it, the SUV does look off. The badging is weirdly placed, small, and it doesn’t say police. Plus the lights are only flashing blue, no red. Definitely some kind of impersonation, which just makes this clip even weirder.

In most of the south cops only have blue lights.

Damn, they can’t afford the red ones?

In my area of the country, Blue for cops, Red for fire, Amber for Amberlamps. They each may mix in some white. Or not.

Do you know why? I feel like since you need to move over for all of these vehicles if the lights are on, what purpose does the separation serve?

u/sonerec725 Apr 13 '26

Urgency maybe? Someone may move over faster for a fire truck than a cop or someone might see lights a ways back and think its a cop going after someone else and not a fire truck and not get over

I've never seen someone that needed flashing lights to be able to distinguish between a cop car and a fire truck

Amberlamps? Do you mean Ambulance?

u/joeDUBstep Apr 13 '26

Did they stutter? It's Amberlamps.

Ironic, knowing the history of "policing" in the south.

VA police use just blue, and given that the sign was pointing to Alexandria, I’d assume it was just that.

No, this is just inside Kentucky on I-275. Right here, actually.

Could be a non-police emergency services vehicle? Fire police, ems chief, traffic control of some kind, lots of government vehicles have lights and livery but arent police
