Ok, curiosity has the best of me. Been seeing a white Tahoe or Yukon on 99 northbound from I-10 just about every day on my way home. Totally unmarked except has a search light on the driver's mirror and a low profile roof mount CB antennae. Plates are not exempt, dark tint but I can still see a prisoner cage for the 2nd row seats. What LEO agency/position rolls like this?

The one near L C is border patrol.
Maybe somebody can learn me. I sometimes travel to Mississippi/Alabama along the coast for work. The last time I went was the first time I drove, and I saw at least 4 different border patrol guys on the side of i10 in Mississippi. I also saw a truckload of border patrol vehicles on an 18-wheeler headed east. I’m sure I’m missing something, but what are they looking for so far from what I’d assume is a heavily crossed border?

I roll 99 from Mason all the way to 290 twice a day almost every day, 5:30am & 4pm ish. In the morning there are Sheriffs and Constables shooting laser 2 or 3 times a week. In the evenings I see Sheriffs and DPS working that stretch, again 2 or 3 times per week. Most of the time the Sheriff is in pickup while the Constable and DPS are in Tahoes.

Non exempt on non .gov plates lead me to believe a private individual bought it at a police auction after the vehicle was retired.
We see crown vics around here all the time with the push bar and search light still mounted but with regular old Texas plates.

We have under the radar vehicles down here, but never notice till the circus lights come on pulling someone over...I would assume it has to be more than speeding to give up their ID, but haven't asked which dept it could be from those that may know?? Figured it was just nature of the beast for my area.
Most are on 281 between the valley & Fal checkpoint...seen 4 door Ford / Dodge & a couple of GM 1/2 trucks which I sorta thought was clever. No opportunity to confirm plates.

That is why I noticed this one. He's been behind me a couple times and I thought grill lights were about the light me up but I moved over to the right and he blew on by.Last edited by TexaRican; 02-27-2018, 08:38 PM.
