Vehicles

Each city has a separate version of the Police Car, marked with the individual city's abbreviation (e.g. LSPD, SFPD and LVPD). The San Andreas Police Department itself patrols using HPV-1000 police bikes. Police officers in rural areas drive a Police Ranger (based on a Rancher). They also use the Enforcer van for SWAT officers, Police Maverick helicopter, and Predator police boat.

Police stations

There are three main police stations - one in each city. Each of these has an alarmed garage containing police vehicles from that city. The police station in Las Venturas, Los Santos and Dillimore is only enterable, and contains officers, police lockers, cells and some weapons and Armor; although be aware that picking up the weapons inside police stations will result in a two-star wanted level.

There are also a number of small police stations in rural villages.

Wanted levels

Main article: Wanted Level in 3D Universe

Tips

• When you reach a 4 wanted level, a Hydra would be recommended for flight if you plan on flying from locations, since the enemy Hydras do launch missiles at you and that the Hydra has countermeasures (i.e. Flares), so they deflect them.
• At the fifth level don't drive a vehicle that is prone to toppling over or driving on harsh land, since the FBI Ranchers tend to be aggressive.

Trivia

• The police department can also use Hydras when he/she reach a four-star wanted level despite that it is military-exclusive vehicle.
