Makes the people they hit fly over the windshield instead of into the windshield?

The familiar blue MSP Patrol Car is referred to as "the goose" by members of the department. As of 2006, the department's fleet consists of primarily Ford Police Interceptors. However, the MSP has begun adding Dodge Charger patrol vehicles to its fleet (10 for the 2006 fiscal year). The department also utilizes the Chevrolet Tahoe for canine and motor carrier use. Several other varieties of vehicles, including Chevrolet Suburbans and Impalas, are used by the department's specialized divisions. Fully-marked patrol vehicles feature a single red overhead light that rotates when activated. MSP vehicles also feature a clear plastic device, referred to as a "shark fin," on the hood that lights up when activated. Patrol units also use red and blue LEDs facing to the rear of the vehicle, as well as headlight and tail light flashers.
The MSP also utilizes "slick top" patrol units for traffic enforcement. There are two types of traffic cars: the traditional blue patrol car sans the traditional "gumball" light, and a semi-marked variety that is painted in colors other than blue and marked only on the passenger side. Available in tan, red, white, silver, and black, these units also use hidden LED lights to increase their effectiveness and have been extremely successful.
Both the rotating overhead light and the shark fin have traditionally been synonymous with the MSP. The shark fin was used for a side stop, which was employed when a Trooper was stopping another vehicle. The Trooper would pull along the driver's side of the vehicle he or she wished to stop and would activate the shark fin's light, alerting the other driver that he was to pull over. The side stop is no longer used by the department. The rotating red light has been used by the MSP since 1960 and the current style red overhead light has been in use by the agency since 1979. The red overhead lights on some MSP cars are 20-25 years old. Both the blue hue of the patrol cars and the red hue of the rotating overhead light are distinctive and unique to the MSP; the department has used the blue paint scheme and the current door decals since 1956.

Got that from wikopedia cause I was curious about the so called "shark fin" on the Michigan State troopers car. As you can see they no longer use it but I bet it was pretty cool when they did except to see it in action would mean you were getting pulled over.
