    York Region Police "Out of Service" Flag

    Saw a first today when a York Region Police unit drove by with a flag labelled "Out of Service" poking up out of the rear passenger window of their cruiser. Is this an off-duty thing or are they on a special assignment of some sort that keeps them from responding to regular calls? Just curious.
