So i got pulled over a few nights ago because of my "modified" muffler (magnaflow)

and i couldnt find my
upto date proof of insurance from all the clutter of my expired ones. Cop lets me go with a ticket for failure to have proof of uptodate insurance but
not the modified muffler.
Next morning i look thru my wallet and notice that i DID have my uptodate insurance

. I felt like shit, but after thinking about it for a while, I NOW wonder if cops in general feel like they shouldnt let u off without some kind of citation. If i did show him my insurance at the time, perhaps it would have been worst. Maybe he would have given me a citation for the modified muffler.
