I've also heard stories of a DCFD dispatcher giving a cross street of Wiley..."As in, Wiley Coyote"...or so the story goes.

Not to get too far off topic, but I once had a dispatcher who couldn't think of anything for "Z" so she used Zima over the radio, this was a while ago when the drink was pretty popular in the bars. I still joke with her about that one.

[quote name='anesti' post='75296' date='Feb 9 2007, 14:54 ']nypd has a contract for 1 rescue from Ferrara anyone has any info on this is it a new rep or larger esu truck or something diffrent?
?[/quote]
I can only assume it might be a Decon or Haz Mat type rig. Ferrara lists most of these as RESCUES. Also since the FDNY has moved to Ferrara to do Special Operation rigs the NYPD/ESU is doing the same.... So much for E\-One/Saulsbury.

Speaking of the NYPD and alphabets...
I have a pair of NYPD Traffic Enforcement PED units sent into me...one is a new Impala the other a tow truck
After the PED (I know what that means) they have MHTTN & MHTN respectively...what does THAT mean?
Thanks!

james, to the best of my knowledge that is just an abbreviation for "manhatten" ,which is most likely the borough that those vehicles are assigned to for the parking enforcement district. unknown why it would be abbreviated two diff. ways though.

Its a nice looking car except for the lightbar. I dont like how its so high, but I know its like that to stick up above other vehicles when in traffic.

Here's a small one and a big one from Emergency Services Division of NYPD.

1951 Plymouth restoration. This is the year that NYPD installed radios in all patrol cars. The roof light isn't exactly right. They had white lettering on a black background and blinking lights inside the housing, no red light on top, no red lights on the fenders.

Second pic shows it going by in the parade. What a loooong trunk it had.

Technical Assistance Response Team (TARU)
NYPD - hp1530 - 03-17-2007
What is the function of the TARU? Sounds like they have all the technical and communications vehicles used by the NYPD. Is the minivan a undercover vehicle?
NYPD - Citywide 231 - 03-17-2007
Yes, that is basically what they do. That goofy minivan used to be the Police Commisioners car, now a TARU detective has it.

Thats a nice way to recycle a vehicle.

The second TARU vehicle is a Command 25 model made by Frontline Communications a division of AK Speciality Vehicles
who is owned by Oshkosh. Here is a link:

Some random NYPD pics I took over the summer. First up, ESU/Bomb Squad on location of a bomb scare in Midtown.

Next up- one of the NYPD anti-terrorism drills (I forget what they're called).
Thats all for now.

Looks more like a CRV - Critical Response Vehicle. Every day one is held, and designated precients send 1 or 2 RMPs. Often they work in conjunction with Atlas.
