Australian police car in spelling mishap

It was one 'L' of a bad day for the signwriter who took care of this "pollice" car. A sharp-eyed photographer noticed the patrol car, based at Brisbane's city division, had an extra 'L' in the "police" sign written across the driver's side.
The Commodore was spotted on Wednesday before disappearing from view later in the week. The back driver's side door was damaged and replaced recently, which is when the transfer with the extra 'L' was added by mistake.

A Queensland Police spokeswoman said the car was delivered back to the city centre police station, where the spelling error was spotted by officers.

But because the car was needed for operational duties, it was used that day before being sent back to the police garage, where the offending extra letter was subsequently removed.
