The Kentucky State Police have entered the 2026 Best Looking Cruiser Contest, held annually by the American Association of State Troopers. The contest photo features a 2024 Mustang GT cruiser photographed outside the KSP Academy in Frankfort.
Voting Now Open
Voting runs through Friday, July 10, at 12 p.m. EDT, and the winning photo will earn the cover of the association’s 2027 calendar. The image is designed to highlight the dedication and training required to become a trooper and serves as a tribute to fallen officers.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear is encouraging Kentuckians to show their support by voting in the national contest. The Kentucky State Police have 39 troopers, officers, and patrolmen who lost their lives in the line of duty.
KSP Commissioner Phillip Burnett, Jr. said the contest photo captures what the agency stands for. “This year’s contest photo symbolizes what it means to be a Kentucky State Police trooper, by showcasing the devotion, hard work, commitment, and sacrifice that our troopers give to their local communities daily,” Burnett said.
