I have ELS and my custom cars working fine.

Sorry, it should be available here: https://www.lcpdfr.com/lspdfr/legacy/features/
Too much detective work going on around these parts methinks.

Yes and no/yes
 
There wasn't much new to me in LSDPFR/LCPDFR per se, but I wanted to learn more about offences, vehicle registration, what you can arrest for and what you can't, and how generally certain callouts are handled by the police in America, so I started reading and asking more and learned a ton of new stuff about US law enforcement. 

I'm pretty new still, but just looking at all the vehicles models I've been surprised by how many members outside the US are involved in the community. It's sometimes easy to not realize.
That's cool, LSPDFR definitely can't match real life experience, but for someone on the outside, I think it has been good for learning about the proper procedures. Even though GTA AI often go crazy, I do try to follow protocols. I don't even take simple traffic stops lightly anymore, as I've had NPCs step out and start shooting at me.

I answered no and then yes, but my answer to the second question is only to a certain extent. Codes, equipment, and basic terms I've learned from playing LCPDFR (and Fort Carson RP) as well as watching videos on real life emergency services, but by no means would I consider myself "informed", let alone experienced. Obviously, real life emergency service workers deal with situations far different from what I'm experiencing, even in daily activity. When I play LCPDFR or LSPDFR, I'm playing a modification of an exaggerated game--everything about GTA is over-done. So I can't say that I have any more knowledge than someone who just likes any branch of the emergency services, and I definitely can't say that I know what it's like to be an officer. If I walked into the academy expecting to know more than the next guy, it would be a mistake.
 
But, that being said, I have learned more because of my experience not just playing the mod, but also interacting with other users on this website. And it's been fun, too, getting to know where different people come from and what they like to do. It's also cool to see that a few users here have made it into law enforcement or another emergency service branch.

It's part of the game.  There's a transitional period where the lights just look completely terrible, and nothing can be done.
