The police cruiser is the staple vehicle within the law enforcement arena. It’s used for traffic stops, complaint responses, assistance requests, traffic diversion, small-scale investigations, and many other traditional calls for service.
However, this isn’t where your responsibilities as a police officer, detective, shift supervisor, or chief officer stop. There are often situations that require more resources, are more taxing in terms of both operations and logistics, and need a more suitable environment to promote effective communications. Specialty incidents, long-time-frame events, or unique-hazard situations often require more cargo space, office-like capabilities, or task-specific functions than a sedan or compact SUV can offer. These situations require specialty vehicles.
Specialty vehicles can be large or compact, driven or in-tow, and planning-focused or action-focused. Addressing the nuances and specific considerations of these specialty needs is necessary to solve the problems you’re seeking answers to.
