As I live in Ohio...

Ohio is the eastern most Mid-west State. 

i like it when police cars have fancy designs but i saw that map im kind of confused if ohio is in the midwest how come Ohio uses Easten standard time?

It is all about the location of the sun. People in the Eastern Time Zone see the sun go down at relatively the same time while people in California (Pacific Time Zone) see it go down 3 hours later than we do. That is why they are 3 hours behind us.

oh ok i always thought Ohio was in the east coast thanks for teaching me lol

Thats a joke right? Ohio is NOT midwest. Ohio is in eastern standard time. There is absolutley no possible way that it is in the "Midwest"

 

Allow me to help you study a map:

 

 

 

Pretty sure that is not midwest

 

Get that crap out of here!

The US Census Bureau classified it part of the Midwest so there for it is part of the Midwest. Check Mate.

thank you

there are no pictures on google or any police website because of how new this car is only one cop has this car in the entire city here are 2 links to the pictures hope you like the new cars  the links are in the comment section

 

This is just to clarify/update on what the OP said about only being one Interceptor Sedan in the City.  Their statement was partly correct as there was just one for testing.  There was also a Chevy Caprice and a Ford Interceptor Utility for testing. However, about 3 weeks ago several Interceptor Sedans hit the streets.  Columbus received 50 of the Interceptor Sedans and was originally going use them to replace standard patrol cars.  A few officers put together a video on how small the back seat is for any prisoner and how tight it is in the front when having a 2 officer car.  After seeing the video, the Executive Staff decided to use the Interceptor Sedans to replace all of the Sgt's cars and some other 1 officer cars that rarely have prisoners.  Currently every Precinct in the city has the Interceptor Sedan for the Sgt's to drive. From now on Columbus will be ordering the Interceptor Utility to replace regular patrol vehicles as it has far much more room both in front and in back.

 

Columbus is also starting to receive it's new Prisoner Transport Vehicle.  It is based off of a Ford E-350 van I believe and is lit up like a Christmas tree.  Finally Columbus starts putting decent light bars on their vehicles.  I believe there is one on the street right now on the far west side but more will be coming in the future.  They are using these to replace a fleet of PTV's which they have only had for about 5 years.  They looked great on paper but performed terribly on the street.

 

As far as the Livery.  It has changed a bit and is for the Bi-Centennial anniversary coming up in 2016.  A request was made for employees to submit designs for a new livery to which several did.  It seems that Columbus is no to big on doing with something to terribly different what what they have now.  And I am sure cost has something to do with it.  It is far too expensive to change a fleets livery.  During the process there would be 2 different style of cars on the street and that goes against the professional image the department strives for.

 

I know that was a lot of info and a bit late but just wanted to provide the correct and updated info.  Carry on.
