Greenville County Sheriff's Office Pack v2 1.0

Hey man. I'm actually working with Greenville County EMS now and plan to be a paramedic here. Seeing this on the game really dose make me feel at home lol.

I can't wait until you do cruisers (Ford Interceptor etc).

Please use a model or include a way to use blue and white lights.

All SC police use Blue and White.

Red and Blue are for very specific agencies in SC.

Usually only Public Safety units use blue and red.
A Public Safety unit is considered to be a police officer AND a fireman AND a paramedic all in one job role.

I think there only 2 or three Public Safety departments in SC.

Fire Departments Use: Red and White
(and volunteer firemen)

Rescue (Ambulances) Use: Red, Orange and White.

Sanctioned Security departments (That are allowed to carry and use lethal force) use: Green and White
Non-Sanctioned Security Agencies Use: Yellow and White.

Tow Trucks or other non emergency vehicles use: Yellow and White

I'll probably try and modify a skin for the F-350 Ambulance model someone release earlier this month to have some county EMS and possibly a GHS skin as well.

thehurk's model that I provided a link to has an option to replace the red/blue default to an all blue/blue setup. That is how I am using this vehicle in my game.

There are quite a few public safety agencies here. 

Also, I'm not sure where you got the security "green and white" color variation from for "sanctioned security departments", but  security companies are permitted by SLED to use all sorts of lights, blue, red, ect, as long as they meet specific criteria.  Their ability to carry firearms has nothing to do with this as well.  They term "sanctioned security department" doesn't make any sense either.  Security companies simply pay fees and conduct classes to receive their licenses, armed or otherwise. 

Well, it's been a few years, so maybe things have changed. I worked for a security company that provided ATM services (Withdrew deposits from ATM's and carried monies to deposit bank) and the division I worked in provided nighttime school security for the county. I would respond to silent alarms from schools at night, carried firearm, baton, made arrests of suspects, held suspects for transport to jail, went to trial in the cases and we basically had all the powers of regular law enforcement while on any of the 120+ school properties in Greenville County (I was SLED certified to carry). However, we were only allowed by law, (at the time) to use Green and white or Yellow and white lights on our vehicles. We were allowed to go over posted speed limits when on calls to silent alarms at the schools, and to respond to fire alarms (We had to get there before the fire department at night to open the locked gates so their trucks could get in). At the time when I took my SLED certification I was talking to a SLED agent who told me that the reason we weren't allowed to use red/blue was because only fully authorized government agencies were allowed to use Blue (police). Any private company was not allowed. Again, this was some 15+ years ago, so maybe things have changed since then?
I was responding to a fire alarm once, doing about 75 mph and had a highway patrol vehicle lit me up. I called dispatch, they contacted the officer, and he got in front of me and blue lighted (escorted) me the rest of the way to the fire in progress. When we got there he said he thought not allowing us red/blue was stupid because they had not been told that we were authorized to violate traffic laws for alarm calls. As far as the state troopers knew, green and white didn't mean anything to them.
