Sure it is. Those white letters don't just show up floating in space in real life. Duh! :mrgreen:
Besides, a K-9 would be jumping from the back seat, not the driver's seat - unless he's had vehicle pursuit driving class. :-)

***********************************************************************************************************************************************************
I recently had a chat with a Corinth, Texas (Denton County) LEO and remarked on how surprised I was that Corinth was home
to a Grapevine LEO and an Irving LEO with take-home cruisers, due to the mileage from their police stations to their homes.
He told me that they were both K-9 officers, and their departments always wanted the dogs to travel in their PD cruisers, not
an officer's private vehicle.

By the way, my understanding is that when a police unit is properly equipped for K9 duty, it has a device which alerts the officer
if the car has stopped running (which would also stop the A/C from cooling). This device allows K9 officers to take a lunch break,
leave their cruiser running, and keep the dog cool. If the car stalls out, the officer is paged, so that he can go to his dog's aid.
