http://www.jars.net/ This shows a picture of the car, and the text of the law. From what I read, the car doesn't meet the criterion because it has no lights. Also, the use of the car must be with the intent to impersonate a police officer. I don't know what this guy was doing when he was stopped for this citation, but unless it was something that would make you think he was a cop, I don't think the state has much to stand on. Maybe we don't know the whole story.
