I'm just curious, Does having realistic, authentic lights affect your gameplay performance positively because the presence motivates you to play your role in-game realistically as if was a real life situation? Does it give you a thrill of excitement because it almost looks real at night?
Do you feel stastified with the light jobs that we have made, because they look nearly identical to the actual LED lights that you would see on your hometown emergency services fleet? For research, give us your input on this.
Absolutely. I would never play a mod with crappy lighting or vehicle modelling. The lights are unreal on this mod!
Now as for "Do you feel stastified with the light jobs that we have made, because they look nearly identical to the actual LED lights that you would see on your hometown emergency services fleet?" Absolutely YES! But I haven't seen the Burnaby RCMP CVPI yet, but I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

If something happens like emergency situations on the roads; Do they direct the roads or they are just trapping the bad guys who drive fast ?
That's why the BC government is considering it as traffic stops generally lead to more serious crimes(ie:drugs,weapons and such).So now they are no longer just "traffic"only.
The RCMP just signed a new contract with the municipalities of BC,so the Sheriffs role expanding may not happen.Could have been a ploy by the BC government to start their own provincial police force in the contract talks.

The Burnaby unit has been switched to the supervisor slicktop,most of the Burnaby units are using the legend lightbar so it will be the same as the Surrey unit.

I can see BC Sheriffs doing traffic enforcement once the BC RCMP contract expires. It's starting to become obvious that they are following the footsteps of Alberta Sheriffs.

Rob Gordon, a criminologist at Simon Fraser University and former police officer, believes Alberta set up its Sheriff Highway Patrol to ease the transition to a provincial police service, but then decided to stick with the RCMP.
"I think what they've ended up with is, quite frankly, a bit of a mess, because they've obviously changed their mind, but they've made some kind of commitment to the sheriff service in Alberta," he said. "So they're stuck with this bizarre hybrid model."
Gordon said he knows the B.C. sheriffs' service has been pushing for expanded duties for some time. But he was surprised to learn the government is taking a hard look at it.
"I didn't know they were actually seriously considering it here," he said.
The BC Attorney General was quoted as saying that it is the BC Sheriffs union that is pushing this to get higher wages for members.He also said they are not trained as well as police officers and if they want to be cops they should become policemen and go to police academy.

normally the supervisor does just that,supervises the shift and on duty members.But if in his duties he needed to arrest somebody,he would as any normal member and transfer in his car.Supervisor Car Ooo Yea. One more question; Does RCMP use it for prison transportations ?
for now highly unlikely but as a future add on most definately.I knew it was a Magnum Are you doing that...Silverado?

The car numbers on the roof of the vehicles are black, and should be blue. This is for the General Duty RCMP vehicles.

Would it be okay if we added one blue light in the rear of the BC sheriffs. Something like the NYPD concept - All red forward and some blue on the rear. I know in real life BC sheriffs are still using all red, but personally im not fond of it. Who here agree with the improvisation? If yes, I can ask Todd to add some blues in the rear bar.
