At a guess, maybe Space Precinct?

Yeah, I think so. I recalled a plot of "Time To Kill" episode described on its page, and found it on Youtube, looks to be it. Thanks. :)
The series were about futuristic cops, using a flying "car" (I think it was/looked more like a small spaceship, and some episodes might have actually had them go to space, but it's been years since I watched it, maybe even in the previous century, so I don't remember for sure).
I remember a scene from one episode, where one of the cops had his kid (daughter?) along when working, for some reason. She was told to stay in the "car", while the cops investigated something. The vehicle exploded/got blown up while they were away, with the frightened cop thinking his kid died, only for them to appear from elsewhere, since it turned out they left the vehicle beforehand.
