Dan’s Thursday Doors
More doors from Europe, but not anything like I have been posting over the past few Thursdays.
One of my visits to Europe I took a lot of photos of Police vehicles. My nephew is in the NSW Police Service and at the time, he just commenced driving for the Highway Patrol.
I thought I would get him a selection of Police vehicles when I found them in my travels.
They went from small and cute in Barcelona

Still cute in Vienna

Yes they do have Police cars in Venice

These blokes looked quite serious when driving in Rome

Not sure what was happening in Nice

There must have been something happening as the police were away from their car in Split, Croatia

The Slovenian Police car is quite snazzy

Now they are getting serious in Rome. When the door is open it says CAR on the side

When the Police van pulled into the square in Pisa I wondered what was happening so I avoided the Leaning Tower and went straight to the nearest and quietest pizzeria. Yes another quest success, to have a pizza in Pisa

Another Police van this time parked in Vienna

I should finish on cute again with Police boat patrolling the canals of Venice

I like the little wee one!

Shame you didn’t snap a Monagesque police car, they’re seriously upmarket.

These are great! The policeman in Vienna looks like he needed a shove to get him in there, but I bet it’s a good car for maneuvering around in the city.

Thanks Dan. The size of him and that car did make me wonder how he was able to get in and out too 🙂

Haha, this post made me laugh. You were very thorough. You even got the Slovenian Policija! Italy has 4 different police squads. You only missed Guardia di finanza (financial police). Good luck to your nephew. I was never in trouble with the police but let me tell you, I’m not a fan. Maybe this post explains it a bit: https://manjameximovie3.wordpress.com/2017/05/06/police-in-the-streets/
Also, in Italy they are all super kind. Also, also: I also had pizza in Pisa. When I was young, I thought they are connected somehow. A great post!

The bigger the vehicle, the less friendly they look. I like the idea of those first two patrolling the streets.

Yes, the boat is good too. Here it would be some kind of humongous speedboat!
