I saw a black black cabrio going south on Route 130 near the Cranbury New Jersey area. I was in my Dads car.

I saw a yellow black Fortwo heading toward downtown Cranbury New Jersey. It was late and I was going the other way but I was in my Dads car.

I have been seeing more Smart cars lately.

Here is an article at NJ.COM about JCPD getting a Smart Car.

It looks like the same vehicle.

Nope. Top car has its lights on the inside. This one has them on top. Jersey City must be on a spending spree.

They both appear to be car # 2620. The most likely situation is that a decision was made to switch from a roof-mounted light bar to interior-mounted flashers, or vice versa.

My photos could be when they were first obtained and the other when it is in actual use. Perhaps the police officers that use them are considered smart cops?

The car with flames belongs to mvaldes. I've spotted him parked in that same spot several times myself.
