Wannabe's like that also negatively affect public opinion, and that of non-enthusiast LEO's.
I agree. Washington is taking steps to stop activities like "fake" pursuits in parking lots by owners of restored/retired police cars. From the sound of it if you go to a car show in the state of Washington and even have the lights in the car you are in violation. Isn't going to matter if they are operable or not.
