Destined to ensure the safety of all citizens, the police forces are an essential part of the proper functioning of our society. And luckily for those of us who like the automotive world, some countries have dared to go a little further and change their “boring” police cars for real racing cars.
In many cases, these are commercial agreements reached with manufacturers, who cede some units of their most iconic models to the police so that they can be exhibited at events and used in very specific missions.
And in other cases, it is directly the police force that acquires these vehicles to use them in the tasks that are decided. Undoubtedly, the Dubai Police Force is the best known in this section, having the fastest sports cars in the world among its fleet of cars. Do you dare to discover below some of the most spectacular police cars?
