Are officers allowed to have music on in their vehicle while on patrol? Is it left up to each individual department?

Its been ok everywhere I've worked. But I would not be surprised to hear there is a department somewhere that does not allow it.
How come your house has wheels and your car doesn't?

I always enjoyed pulling up next to a group of gangstas while blasting the rap radio station for kicks.
The looks on their faces were priceless. :D
Our dept never said anything about music though.Assume nothing.

I like playing the metal/hardcore station when I'm doing prisoner transports.

I mean, we're getting killed for these people and they don't even appreciate it. They think it's a big joke.

On occassion, I have been known to listen to some rock-n-roll music in my squad car. :eek: :D
A nod is as good as a wink to a blind bat
If you make me stop you while I'm rockin' out......

It's ok here. I like to listen to country while at work. Maybe some rock.

My G-Ride has a 6 CD changer in it with some sweet sound system. I am cranking on the techno in the morning. It keeps me awake better then coffee...also the new BuckCherry CD is also "good mental caffeine."

I have found that most turds like the classical opera music. I personally can't stand it, but I like to please the "customers". The louder it is, the more they seem to enjoy it.:D As far as any other time, I prefer Country with a little bit of cassic rock mixed in.

That sucks, but I knew there had to be some places that wouldn't allow it.

I prefer the wailing of damned souls, as I rocket through the empty, echoing night.

I listen to satellite radio and my mp3 player while in the car. I've even been known to sing along, but then, I have tinted windows, so no one can see me!
