Is there any word on whether this actually works as a deterrent? I don't know about the average Thai policeman, but I'd do anything I could think of to get one of those armbands...

Welcome to the Cellar, runswithknives & Spiegelprime. :D

Real men don't Hello Kitty... real men Hello pussy.

So what you are saying, Weird Harold, is that you consider having to drive a Ferrari 512TR for a week punishment? (OK, it's pink, but a valid assertion just the same:p ):driving:

Welcome to the Cellar, aero geek.:D

Yes, since the purpose is to embarrass bad cops by pointing them out, to the public and their peers, the pink Ferrari would be punishment.

I'd laugh if I saw that pink Ferrari. But I also think the Thai government is rather stupid. Wouldn't a heavy fine, jail time, a good solid beating, and / or loss of your job as a police officer be a more compelling deterrent?

Wouldn't that be a little severe for Severe punishments create resentful, sullen, cops, and replacements are expensive to train and integrate into the force. That's why they're trying a little embarrassment. Only time will tell if it works.

God I want that car. Haaa! Who could I really piss off in that car?!?
Awesome......
Hello- Gimme more kitty.

You'd piss me off by owning it instead of me.

Wolf, seriously?

Uh huh--Wolf's a serious Hello Kitty fan.

I am a very complex person.

Yeah, I knew wolf was mad keen on Hello Kitty, but I just .....cant....get a visual on her cruising in the little car.

I big pink Hello Kitty Hummer.....sure.....but this just isnt working for me.

You ask and Google provides.

Little car, big engine. Faaaaaast.

Hummers look funny.

I want this. Fortunately it is not available in the United States.

I almost bought a blue hello kitty sewing machine the other day.
(for a friend)
*clears throat*
I was raised on the kitty stuff in asia- so I have a good excuse right?
Oh- who cares...Who wants to support the Cicero fund for the hello kitty car?
Oooh- I can imagine that episode of "cops" now.....Awesome.

The other one just looks like Hello Pimpy.
