You obviously don't understand the political/revenue dynamic in play vis-a-vis Anaheim would probably still be a group of orchards or some warehouse back water if Disney hadn't decided to set up shop and bring megabucks to the city's coffers.

If you ever make it on to a city, county or state law enforcement agency make sure to find out who is paying the bills. It'll save you a lot of pain down the road. Black and white, the law is the law. In the real world it works a little bit different.

Word.

Does Disney break California vehicles? How do they do it? Do they hire people to go around with crow bars and a flashing light on their head?

... I can neither confirm nor deny this.

This may be considered a stretch by some, but this is what I found:

V C Section 25258 Authorized Emergency Vehicles Additional Lights

Authorized Emergency Vehicles: Additional Lights

25258. (a) An authorized emergency vehicle operating under the conditions specified in Section 21055 may display a flashing white light from a gaseous discharge lamp designed and used for the purpose of controlling official traffic control signals.

(b) An authorized emergency vehicle used by a peace officer, as defined in Section 830.1 of, subdivision (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), or (i) of Section 830.2 of, subdivision (n) of Section 830.3 of, subdivision (b) of Section 830.31 of, subdivision (a) or (b) of Section 830.32 of, Section 830.33 of, subdivision (a) of Section 830.36 of, subdivision (a) of Section 830.4 of, or Section 830.6 of, the Penal Code, in the performance of the peace officer's duties, may, in addition, display a steady or flashing blue warning light visible from the front, sides, or rear of the vehicle.

(c) Except as provided in subdivision (a), a vehicle shall not be equipped with a device that emits any illumination or radiation that is designed or used for the purpose of controlling official traffic control signals.

and...

California Penal Code Section 830.6

[removed because the forum software said my post was too long, but §830.6(a) may actually be relevant.]

(c) Whenever any person is summoned to the aid of any uniformed
peace officer, the summoned person is vested with the powers of a
peace officer that are expressly delegated to him or her by the
summoning officer or that are otherwise reasonably necessary to
properly assist the officer.

(from http://law.onecle.com/california/penal/830.6.html)

It's possible that the Anahiem Police Department granted Disneyland Resort Security the proper authority to use the blue strobe lights under these sections of the California Vehicle Code and the California Penal Code.

Y'all just have WAY too much time on your hands. Is this REALLY worth commenting on? Seriously? Seems this is a SPT (stupid poster trick) for the original poster.

This IS the internet, it attracts pointless arguments and provides countless hours of entertainment. Sit back, grab a cold drink, perhaps a snack, and enjoy! :eatpopcn: :cheers:
