But what good does having a lambo do...sure you can follow anything, but you cant force them off the road with it.

That "smart" little peice of plastic couldent do jack to anything....

But back to using supercars as patrol cars...it makes no sense, they cant take hits, they just arent tough enough. Impalas+front battering guards can take out any sedan/standard v6 mustang/camaro ect.

that makes sense.

The Lambo wrecked a few months ago. To my knowledge, it isn't used at all anymore.

Ooooo ouch...

I feel bad for the cop that did that.

He must have felt like more of a fool than the ones who lay their bikes down on the training course.

Of course they had fun wrecking that lambo, the police drive worse than the citizens over there, well in Rome.
