@VPNavy All of our patrol cars say, "Pride in Service."
@Antiwoke555 @BucMon21 The driver hasn't had a valid license in three years, parks on a crosswalk, and in a fire lane. Our deputy gave her a break by allowing a relative of hers to come get her vehicle so it didn't get towed, thereby saving her a couple hundred dollars in tow fees.
