A NEW white North Vancouver RCMP police car (right) is
matched door to door with a older cruiser painted blue and
white. Because cars are factary-painted white, the new vehi-
cles will also save painting costs. Const. Mark Schagena
(right) is shown with a new car, while Const. Tom Seaman
stands near the late-'70s police car used at the detachment.
White police cruisers are also making their debut as part of
the West Vancouver Police force's new equipment.
