Spotted on the road in Manhattan, this NYPD Smart Car. Some call it more approachable.

I am curious where they stow an arrested violent person en route to the police station? And would love to see that Smart Care chase a muscle car in a high speed pursuit.

Neither of those situations is a concern; the Smart Cars are used to get officers to minor incidents including traffic situations and to patrol areas around schools and so forth. There are still larger cars for other purposes, mostly at this point Chevy Impalas. The big Crown Vics are gone.

Still, the image of a Smart Car chasing the Dukes of Hazzard GTO has some appeal.

Think of the movie The Italian Job . Either version...
