In Popular Culture
As a consequence of its popularity from the 1996 discontinuation of the Chevrolet Caprice 9C1, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor is one of the most common police vehicles depicted in contemporary North American films and television. The Crown Victoria is seen extensively in popular culture as the main police vehicle of the United States, but in following with real-life police departments, crime dramas (such as Hawaii Five-0) are now using replacements such as the Chevrolet Impala 9C1/9C3, Dodge Charger, and Ford Taurus Police Interceptor Sedan.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“You seem to think that I am adapted to nothing but the sugar-plums of intellect and had better not try to digest anything stronger.... a writer of popular sketches in magazines; a lecturer before Lyceums and College societies; a dabbler in metaphysics, poetry, and art, than which I would rather die, for if it has come to that, alas! verily, as you say, mediocrity has fallen on the name of Adams.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“Education must, then, be not only a transmission of culture but also a provider of alternative views of the world and a strengthener of the will to explore them.”
—Jerome S. Bruner (20th century)
