Tennessee Highway Safety Office contest seeks best-looking police cruiser photo

TENNESSEE — Tennessee law enforcement agencies are vying for statewide bragging rights in a contest to find the best-looking police cruiser photo.

The Tennessee Highway Safety Office is holding the contest as part of the 22nd annual Law Enforcement Challenge, with more than 90 agencies taking part. The challenge recognizes the agency with the “coolest cruiser photo.”

Several local agencies are participating, including the Bristol Tennessee Police Department, which is hoping to win this year.

“In previous years, we’ve taken pictures in front of the race track. We’ve also used another landmark, which is our Bristol sign downtown and we have not yet submitted one on our mural that’s in downtown Bristol, so we definitely wanted to showcase that beautiful artwork that’s in our downtown area, hoping that that artwork will take us the award home,” said Jacey McCray, community outreach officer for the Bristol, Tennessee Police Department.

The winning agency will be selected using ranked-choice voting, meaning each voter is required to vote for three agencies.

The deadline to vote is this Friday at 5 p.m. Eastern time.
