Name on car
« on: November 29, 2012, 10:11:01 am »
I seem to remember seeing a military car, police car or similar, with the name of the officer written on the door, similar to a lot of race cars.  I have tried to google it, but I can't find anything. It doesn't really exist? Have you ever seen it, and if so, where?

Yeah I'm not really quite sure what you are asking?

     Not to be rude at all, you ask about a car, then said it doesn't exist, then ask if we seen it ?  C'mon, were you dreaming when you wrote this ?

I think my English is a bit confusing, sorry!  :)



On this old rally Volvo the name of the driver and co-driver are written on the window. On other rally cars I have seen it written on the door as well. My question is: Is the name of the driver/co-driver/whatever ever written on a police or military vehicle? Like "general So-and-so", etc. I "seem to remember" seeing that, but I can't find it anywhere now. Does it make more sense?

I have seen small town police cars have the officers name on the door.  I guess it would depend on if the car was assigned to one person or not...
