OLD POLICE CARS IN ACTION

OLD POLICE CARS IN ACTION?
Say, if you are a police officer and you have for example a 1974 Dodge Monaco, with the stripes of your city's PD still on it. Would it be legal to work in and also could you drive it around? I hope you understand, cheers. (It does not have to be a Monaco, I am just meaning an old police car (pre 1980's)

For liability reasons, you can only drive a city owned vehicle. There would be too many legal issues if you got in an accident. If the car broke down, there would be issues on who would pay to get it fixed, or worse yet... legal issues if you didn't make it to a priority call because of car failure.

Tropper is right except for one option. If an officer restored a vehicle (its done all the time BTW) and has a written agreement with the city/county s/he may drive said vehicle is community events like parades, copshop events, BBQs and the like. As a regular patrol vehicle, nope.

They could most likely drive it around as a personal vehicle. As long as they are not using the siren or taking actions that would make people think they are an on duty police officer. There are people who drive around i old police cars all the time, some that even have sirens on top. Most of them are wanna be cops who cause a lot of problems but many times what they are doing is legal in the State of Washington.

Being a Singaporean,I'd to move to US.

Being a Singaporean,I'd to move to US.?
I've reading all countries that I wish to move to. I list 10 possibility of countries I'd to move. I choose US, GBR, LUX and Monaco. But, I'd to ask about how does US immigration work. I know, in Singapore its compulsary to serve National Service. Is there anyway that I can apply US citizenship before serving NS? And, can I move to US before NS? And how does US green card work? I did a little research and I know, I have to pay a sum to get the PR. How about studying in the states? And after that live in USA? By the way, I have to serve in the Singapore NS first before I can live in US, and no, I am not going to serve US Army.

America does NOT have compulsory NS. You cannot apply for citizenship until 3 years after your permanent green card. You need a visa first. Then apply for a Green Card. You can, however, serve in our armed forces voluntarily. Georgie has a place reserved for you in Afganistan!!

Your options are: 1) Marry a US citizen 2) Get a job offer from a US employer and have them apply for a visa 3) Diversity lottery Once you have a work visa, you can then apply for a green card (permanent residency), unless you marry an American, then you go directly to green card. You do not "pay" for a green card, but there are application fees. You will probably need to serve your NS in Singapore first.
