Interior Minister unveils new police car design

Interior Minister Ivan Langer unveiled the design of the Czech Republic’s new police cars on Monday, calling the image-change an ‘historic event in the Czech police’s history’. The new cars will hit the country’s roads as early as November 2008, and will be silver, yellow and blue instead of the current green and white. Around 1,400 vehicles have been commissioned by the Interior Ministry, in a deal worth nearly 1.5 billion crowns (94 million USD).
