hmmm. i didn't notice that. but probably because a lot of illegal drugs are carried in vans. if i were a drug dealer, i would drive a little car.

Well the brown 70s ones with the bubble window in the back all contain child molesters.

Depends on where you are.

Different parts of the nation offer different threats that can be hidden in vans. Texas and other southern states close to the border will have the threat of illegal aliens being snuck around in vans. States with militias and high rates of illegal gun sales will have threats of illegal weapons that can be concealed in vans. Areas with a recent increase in burglaries will soon have an increase in stopped vans, since those can be used to carry large amounts of goods from the crime.

All it takes is for you to commit some minor infraction to gain the suspicion of the officer and you can be pulled over. Based on how you act (don't pop an attitude, ever) and such, it could go further than that. Since most states whole books listing over 2000 possible vehicle violations, there's much you can do to keep from being pulled over if you've caught the eye of an officer.

My question to you is are they commercial. Many company vans can be under schedules and be rushing out. It also could be a private company van. Some vans I guess aren't worth the care so the tags could be outdated. Soccer moms rushing to soccer games? Vandalism causing them to get pulled over. Regulated stops or whatever? What kind of vans would kinda help better man.
