Greek police needs a total modernization for it's fleet as currently clearly can be seen that they have a mix of pursuit police cars and lightbars dating for almost 20+ years. They had ordered some Hyundai i30's but you see them rarely
@Code3Paris The Nissan Pathfinder is a Special Unit in Hellenic Police. It's called O.P.K.E. (Ο.Π.Κ.Ε.). Its a Crime and Terrorism Prevention Unit. (Not like SWAT. SWAT is different). They use marked and Unmarked Vehicles. In the clip, they were using an Unmarked Vehicle while On Duty.

colorguardwith brandon Its true, you are right ! they deserve to have new vehicles beacons led quality. But in Athens it is not the worst place of the police vehicles the worst I confirm to you is in Cuba the vehicles are mostly lada or more recent BYD a Chinese brand with a single blue lightning lamp I never heard lair the low
Most of the lights aren't actually green. It's just since they're halogen, the blue and a few yellow rays slip through. Unless you're using a filterless LED system, then you're going to have some color leakage. They are supposed to be blue though. At least I would assume so since their filters are blue.
They are I think our oldest police cars that are still in action,and they are used most in traffic police.Xsara & Octavias.Back in 2000's we had Nissan Primeras/Almeras,Citroen Xantias etc,but we replaced them pretty soon (with Octavia 5 in majority),except those 2 that I mentioned before. I really believe that they have proven to be extremely good cars and that's why we still keep them,despite the fact that we bought new patrol cars.They do their job more than fine,so police doesn't pull them "out of action".
@@StrategosBill yup I've found it on the Google later, now that light bars and also cars looks fine. I wish Slovak police will start to use them also soon...
0:30 Is it legal to ride a motorcycle without helmet in Greece? The police just seems to pass by and the guys on the bike don't seem to care much either.
Single stop-sign means you *slow down* at intersection. Only time i saw people actually, quaranteed stopping was when there were stop-sign and red lights or intersection had two stop signs. Drivers respect red lights rather well but i really would not count on it. "No passing", or any such signs, are just really blurry guidelines, not strict and enforced rules. Despite that, i recommend using car for transportation while there. Distances between cities are long and and i have never trusted public transport in my country so i do less in greece. Just drive carefully and like the worst is about to happen and it'll be just fine. Probably! :D
Its an order from the previous Chief of Police. A lot of officers disagreed because it damaged the new leds but the order its still active. Thats why no one pulls over to the side.
Meme la police française est plus riche qu'eux... Quand on voit qU'ils ont encore plein de bagnoles en service qui ont plus de 10 ans avec en plus un gros gyro qui fait style années 1980
1:35 _Trochaia?_ - Interesting mix of Greek and Latin text on markings. It might be better to use the Helvetica font for Greek since it's the local tongue, and Times for other languages.
Usual stuff riding around with blue lights on all of the time creeping along in traffic no wonder the locals take no notice when its a real emergency. Seriously need some EU money for decent vehicles and up to date lights and livery or the Russians could sell them some 2nd hand Ladas

Guys relax. Most of those cars are now retired. We now have a lot of modern and expensive cars.

Was that a JetSonic at 1:35?! In Greece?! I didn't know FedSig sold to Greece 0_o
Approximately during the end of 90's and was originally installed on 1994's Opel Astra 2.0 GTi and Nissan Primera 2.0
Finalement!! Une bonne compilation des véhicules grecques, je me souviens leurs Xsaras pendant mon enfance
Nice compilation!
Very cool ... Like the green lights :o)

@Evangelos Basimakopoulos It is supposed to be blue, but it's clearly green. Are you blind?
@@dxb8086 The lights are blue!! They look green from the camera but in real life they are blue
@Allô français canadien I live in Greece... They are blue not green..
Dxb ur wrong and his not blind plus they dont look green by the camera.they are blue but since some cars are old they don't have good detail!
The Citroën vehicles are terrible.

It isnt terrible it is old!!!
Nice compilation mate;)
Oh man... If I tought, Slovak police uses ancient lightbars, I have didn’t seen this 😀
We already updated our light bars to led ones. These clips are old.
@@StrategosBill yup I've found it on the Google later, now that light bars and also cars looks fine. I wish Slovak police will start to use them also soon...
Love the green lights something different for once.
Nice video
Quand je voit leurs voitures je me dis quand France on a quand même de bon véhicule et éclairage .
Awesome
I was in Lesvos last year and i saw a police car with the lights on but no siren
Its called Code 2 response.

Even the police ride without helmets in Greece..
Hahaha you've never been to Greece obviously
Greeks dont care about the law
Trust me Jorge... once you've experienced traffic in Greece, you'll see it all. It's a variant of organized chaos.

+code3Paris excuse moi mais la Skoda elle possède bien un gyro de chez mercura non ?!
Why do they have emergency lights on, when they drive normally????
To alarm that they are passing by. Or just to show off
Its an order from the previous Chief of Police. A lot of officers disagreed because it damaged the new leds but the order its still active. Thats why no one pulls over to the side.
I need a help. Valera Baglarov destroy our life. Can you control him?
You respect me. I respect you.

They are greek capital letters. ΤΡΟΧΑΙΑ. In lower case letters it's τροχαία.
It's greek
It is Greek. Trochea is the unit which is responsible for the traffic.
its the traffic police
it also has some vans patrolling highway exits and entrances

There was probably some incident because they don't drive around with their sirens on
Why is Police in English ?
Because we have a lot of tourists and immigrants in Greece. Also you can see the Greek Police text which appears in Greek on the back or front glass.
Les voitures de police grècques n'utilisent pas des sirènes ? Pourquoi ?
C'est étonnant !
Ils utilisent des sirènes, c'est juste que sur les vidéos ils n'était pas en urgence.
