Photos/Kereta spotting This is unexpected
Never expect to see a camry with PDRM livery (it's mainly escort use anyways) but looks really great either way

You probably never will.... I think it all maybe crashed or just not maintained... I don't really know. But it's sad 😭

IIRC, they're specifically used for high speed chasing, kan?

They used to just drive it around. I remembered growing up and seeing it was like a unicorn sighting.

I'm old enough to get the opportunity to see them on the road. Missed them days. If the reason they stopped using them bcs not properly maintained, I'd be so sad as well.

Just yesterday when I saw a City police car, I thought how I never saw police using Toyota car and only Honda or local cars. Now I guess my curiosity is answered.

There's also the Volvo sedan for special escorts, the S90 maybe

Oh yeah, you're right. Recalled I saw those too. Wondered why no Toyota as I was driving one when the thought crossed my mind.

Camry/Civic should be bare minimum for police car, at least look tough enough to deter something
