They were part of a CRV, Critical Response Vehicles, in which designated precincts send one car (with 2 police officers) to a muster location. From there Each car is assigned to a location in the area to demonstrate the NYPD's ability to respond to terror incidents. It is also designed to provide a deterrent, as each muster location, and further assigned locations are a random deterrence of a likely terror target. When they leave the muster location, they will leave with lights and sirens on in a caravan, and then disperse.

Thanks grumpyff. This makes sense as there were multiple NYPD Cars (Probley around 20 or so) in a row going down 7th Ave. in Manhattan with Lights & Sirens on.
Group shot of the NYPD vintage cars used for retirements and other department functions. Front to rear 1989 Chevy Caprice (marked Transit Police), a Diplomat, a 1995 Chevy Caprice (marked Highway 2), a 1962 Plymouth, and a 1960 Chevrolet
You mean like why is the NYPD in Mount Vernon??? After the hurricane, everybody is helping each other out...could be a million reasons why they are up there.

Photo is year old, I had gotten lost at work one night and this is how we found out we were no longer in the Bronx. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Per an order about a year ago all our marked vehicles must have "NYPD Police"front and rear to prevent confusion with other agencies. It came down shortly after Officer Figoski's funeral when other agencies attended. Supposedly a chief saw a police car being operated in a manner he did not like, and when he pulled along side, realized it was not an NYPD vehicle.
