Kirkpatrick : ' INTRODUCTION The National j~dvisory Committee for Law Enforcement Equipment and Technology (NACLEET), wh"ich is advisory to the Equipment Technology Center (ETC) Of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), has ranked police patrol vehicle testing as its number one priority in the transportation area. The ETC program is an evaluation program to provide data for the purchasers, users, manufacturers, and researchers of law enforcement equipment. Last year, the ETC conducted the National Law Enfor,cement Vehicle Evaluation Program MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF STATE POLICE in California in conjunction with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. After the first year's effort, it became evident that 49-state vehicles and California vehicles should be tested separately to speed up the process. This year, the Mi chi 9an State Pol ice (MSP) deci ded to test both full size and mi d AND size vehicles. Since testing by the ETC \'vould be a duplication of the Michigan effort, it was decided to monitor, reprint and publish the MSP test results. The ETC sent two staff representatives to the MSP testing program to observe MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET the testing. The MSPprogram was conducted in a most professional manner giving good test data for departments to use. It should be pointed out that two full size cars and one mid size car did not meet MSP performance criteria. However, the three IIfailing cars II did wen in the handling and braking phases of the test. These IIfailingll cars are good police package vehicles which many depa~tments will be able to use even though they are a little slower than the passing vehicles. The ETC looks forward to working with the MSP on 1981 vehicle testing and would like to thank Colonel Gerald R. Hough, Director, MSP, for his department's cooperation and professionalism in getting this year's testing program accomplished in a timely manner. 1980 PATROL VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS~ EVALUATION, AND PURCHASING PROGRAM : \, ;,w ~ r I , . r !; ~!

We sincerely dflscusslng how our data mlght be adaptable tio your needs please feel hope that this report. which contains the results of our evaluation of ree to contact: ' the 1980 model patrol vehicles 3 will be beneficial to you in' making your purchasing decisions. The 1980 evaluation includes test results for both full- and mid-size Lt. Curtis L. VanDenBerg, patrol vehicles. The full-size vehicles tested were the Buick LeSabre Sgt. David B, Storer, or 350 cid, Chevrolet Impala 350 cid, Dodge St. Regis 360 cid, Ford LTD 351 Sgt. William F. McFall cid, and Plymouth Gran Fury 360 cid. The mid-size vehicles were the Chevrolet Malibu 305 cid, Dodge Aspen 318 cid, Ford Fairmont 255 cid, Michigan State Police and Plymouth Volare~3l8 cid. At the request of the manufacturers, a Executive Division Chevrolet Malibu 350 cid and a Dodge Aspen 360 cid were tested for Policy Developlllent and informational purposes only. They will not be allowed to bid against Evaluation Section our mid-size patrol car specification .which requires the smaller engine. 714 South Harrison Road (For a detailed description of all vehicles tested and how they were East Lansing, MI 48823 equipped, see pages 1 through 21.) Phone: (517) 332-2521, Ext. 340 During this year's test, we encountered several problems that require a brief explanation, First, upon completion of the acceleration, top speed, and brake tests with the Chevrolet Impala, it was learned that'an extra spare tire had mistakenly been left in the trunk. After discussing the situation with representatives from Chevrolet, it was decided to re test the Impala on acceleration and top speed even though the tires had been slightly "flat spotted" during the brake test. The acceleration and top speed data presented for the Chevrolet Impala are those developed from the re-test of the vehicle. Secondly, during the Vehicle Dynamics Evaluation, the Plymouth Volare, while on a warm-up lap, sustained sufficient damage to eliminate it from further testing. For the purpose of our competitive evaluation, it was the joint decision of the Department of State Police and the Department of Management and Budget, with concurrence : oj by Chrysler Corporation, that the Volare 318 be assigned the same vehicle dynamics score as the Aspen 318. The Vehicle Dynamics data sheet reflects this decision. Due to their inabiJity to meet the established minimum acceleration requirements, the Buick LeSabre and Chevrolet Impala were eliminated from the bid process on full-size vehicles. The Ford Fairmont, f9r the same reason~ was eliminated from the bid process for mid-size vehlcles. We did continue to evaluate the cars, primarily in order to provide the data to other law enforcement agencies whose requirements for acceleration and/or top speed differ from ours.

Ten percent of each vehicle'S score is derived from this test. ,METHODOLOGY - Using a fifth wheel in conjunction with an electronic ~; digital speed meter and an electronic multi-function timer. each Vehicle METHODOLOGY - Each vehi~le will first be required to make four is driven through four acceleration sequences; two northbound and two deceleration5 at 22 ft./sec. (90 -0 mph full size vehicles or 80- 0 southbound to allow for wind direction. The four resulting times for mph intermediate size vehicles). with the driver Using a decelerometer each target speed are averaged. and the averaged times used to, determine to maintain the deceleration rate. The vehicle will then make, one 60 - "pass" or "fail" on the qualification tests. and to derive scores on the o mph impending skid. The exact initial velocity at the beginning of competitive test. the deceleration and the exact distance required to make the stop will " \. be recorded by means of a fifth Wheel in conjunction with electronic digital speed and distance meters. From these figures. the average TOP NJ.Q deceleration rate for ,the stop can be calculated. Following a 5 minute cooling period. this sequence will be repeated. This second sequence PREMISE - Michigan State Police full size patrol vehicles must be will be followed by one 60 - 0 mph full four-wheel lock stop. both to capable.of attaining a minimum top speed of 110 mph within a d1~!I~nce of , , determine ability of 'the brakes to lock and ability of the vehicle to',c three ml1es or less in order to successfully pursue. overtake, )1., ~ stop in a straight line(within its lane. apprehend violators.

WEIGHTING STEP VI In order for the competiti\le evaluation to accurately reflect the qualities of each test car that we feel are most important, Add the dollar score for each car to the actual bid we have assigned specific weight factors to each category of prices for each car to arrive at the Adjusted Bid the evaluation. The actual use of the weighting tlill be explained Price. in the scoring section of this report. The assigned weight for each of the categories is as follows: . Vehicle Dynamics ------~------25% Acceleration ------10% Braking Rate in Feet Per Sec. 2 ------10% Top Speed ---~------15% Fuel Consumption ------~---- 25% Ergonomics ------10% Communications ------~ Total ------100% 2. SCORING The following is an explanation of the scoring methodology used throughout the competitive evaluation: STEP I Gather and record the raw test scores (expressed in terms of times, feet per second squared, spe('ds, questionnaire totals, or miles per gallon) for each car in .each category. STEP II Find the "Z"-Score for each car in each category (see attached sheet for instrUctions). STEP III MultiPly each resulting "Z"~Score in each category by the welght of the category. This will equal the "WID Z" \ score. STEP IV Sum across the "WID Z" scores for each car. The result ant number represents the total point score for each car for the competitive evaluation.

O'Brien, Sheriff Genesee County, Michigan .. I have been Sheriff of Genesee County, Michigan, for the last seven (7) years and we have used Buick LeSabre Patrol cars exclusively during this time. I am pleased to say that they have more than done the job we have expected. We are happy to report that of the last seventy (70) patrol cars that we have sold that have had in excess of 50,000 miles, we have averaged 36.59% return of our original investment. This is important to me in reaching the three basic points in a Patrol Fleet: Cost of operation, comfort and resale." A. R. Lubke., Superintendent Department of Public Safety Missouri State Highway Patrol "As Superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, I feel we have been very fortunate to use Buicks in our patrol fleet during the past fifteen years. The Buicks have proven to be a fine patrol car and our officers are very proud of these cars. We have experienced good success with the Buicks over the years and find they had a high resale value when our cars were traded. We are looking forward to receiving the 1980 model Buick Lawman that we presently have on order, and we expect that this car will provide us with the same excellent service."
