Police Officers go RETRO Police Officers go RETRO Have you heard the words One Adam 12? If not then you are little young to enjoy the "back to black" retro police cruiser. Back in the day all of the patrol cars where a black and white color scheme, hence the slang term "black and white". In this month's Mayor's Newsletter Mayor Cary Bozeman writes about the "New Black and Whites on Bremerton Streets." In the 1970's departments started to do some changes with different colors and styles. Looks like Bremerton is jumping on the 2005 swing back to the traditional black and white. There are 5 now with the entire fleet being replaced soon. Studies have shown that cars with alternating light and dark colors are more visible in low light and high illumination. But, there are some experts that say reflective tape and using the fluorescent lime green paint similar to some fire trucks is a better solution when it comes to the visibility factor. I say this is a cool move on the city's part and agree this will make the Officers more visible in a variety of situations. What driver won't know there is a Police Officer behind them when seeing the "black and white" in the rear view mirror? I also think it is a morale boost for the department. As a Mother of a Washington State Police Officer I say - way to go Bremerton!!
