D.A.R.E. Cars are Police vehicles used commonly to enforce Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.). Used by D.A.R.E. certified law enforcement officers. A number of D.A.R.E. programs in local police departments have some vehicles marked as police cars to promote the program. The D.A.R.E. cars appear at schools in parades. Typically these cars are high-end or performance cars that have been seized in a drug raid.[1] They are used to send the message that drug dealers forfeit all their glamorous trappings when they get caught. D.A.R.E. cars can also be regular police vehicles that are nearing the end of their service life that are pressed into service for the promotion,[2] or new police cars outfitted especially for the D.A.R.E. program.[3]
