What’s the Best-Looking Cop Car? Troopers Cast Ballots
Every year the American Association of State Troopers puts out a calendar with the best-looking state trooper cruisers. The votes are tallied through the group’s Facebook page, with the top 13 cop cars getting a spotlight in the calendar. Money from the sale of these police car calendars goes to scholarships for AAST member’s dependents. So the effort is worthy and the selection fun and unknown until the winners are released.
Though the calendars don’t go on sale until next month, we have the list of the top cop cars now. Under normal conditions, these are the cars you hate seeing in your rearview mirror. But here, you can enjoy these 13 cop cars from a different perspective.
