picking on cars is easy
u see it you turn on signals done and done. all in a days work stopping a guy robbing a bank...good luck. leave that shit to detectives and special units shit car stops are easy money for the state, city and a good time to act tough for a cop thats why i got a daily. no worries no stress. and i can still have fun at the track or to the track if i decide to drive instead of trailer it. sucks yeah i guess i gave in. but is it worth have your $15k+ car impounded because its too low, or loud (by a cops easr, not legally)? i dont think so. i worry more about my car getting stolen then i do about getting pulled over by the coppers!! |

Wow,like somebody said before in this thread...isn't that admitting to profiling people? I don't live in cali,I live on the other side of the country(THANK GOD) The local goverment is wasting tax payers money on things like going after illegally modded cars(in a so-called 'free country') instead of going towards school programs and whatnot? There is alot of talk about Virginia getting emissions testing now-a-days. Great. That means everybody that comes to mind that I know right now would have to drop alot of money into making their car 'legal'.
I really can't stand the way the automotive world is going these days. Everybody is so hybrid crazy....Hey assholes,wtf are you going to do with all those mamoth batteries your stuffing into those hybrids? I'm sure thats really great for the environment(hell we have programs trying to recycle and deal with normal car batteries,and household batteries? )and more and more of crackdowns on people,not just "kids",but people of all ages (my dads truck and my moms car wouldn't pass emissions,I am willing to bet on it.) trying to enjoy a hobby. |

how is it wasting tax payers money:
cops giving tickets to easy targets (cars) let's see...CA, exhuast ticket..around 100some bucks PER citation. one cop doing 2-3 citations a day...over a month's time..equals money in the bank. which can be distributed to schools, state programmes, etc its elementary. |

Washington state is pretty cool, i think every 240 here is sr or rb except for mine haha, i still have California plates and don't have to smog under some loop hole in the CA DMV dealing with military out of state, so all i have to do is pay registration. In certian areas here you have to smog but i guess it is just a breather test through your tailpipe and they don't even look under the hood!

They're not bluffing, and if you have an illegal car and complain then congrats; you're a moron.
I have no kit. I have no swap. I have no illegal engine mods. I've passed smog. I don't drive like a retard. I use my blinkers. Don't deserve a ticket and you won't get a ticket. Be illegal, get caught. |

![]() (I also use my blinkers and drive safe. Modifying, that's a different story.) That's like saying if you complained about slavery when it was still legal, you're a moron. Sorry, it's an exaggeration I know, but sometimes people don't agree with the laws. It's part of being human, and individual. My car's illegal, illegal as all hell. But I can guarantee it pollutes less than most the cars on the road, and I drive safe, defensively and curteously. I don't feel I am worthy of thousands of dollars in fines and police persecution for having exhaust and some shiny crap under my hood. I feel, as an informed citizen that these are profit making laws, and that that is morally wrong and should not be something our government officials, which we pay to represent US, should do to it's citizens. |

Another One!!
I heard another commercial yesterday. This time it was a girl saying...
"Did you know that the CHP is on the lookout for illegally modified cars? And they know what to look for too. Too low, too loud, or too fast, and they will pull you over" That is almost word for word what i heard |

All the new commercials i hear here in the bay are about boating. For example "If its your boat, its your responsibility" and people taking about an accident they had and how they lost a arm/leg/nut/friend/brother/sister/mother.
The ones that act like total asses are the CHP, ive been pulled over twice by the CHP for having the operating permit on my rear window. I understand that they have to check if my paperworks in order. I show him the usual Lic/Reg/Ins then he hassles me about my stock 240, i was only lowered (not dumped) at the time. Then he takes a look at my operating permit and says its fake, I get arrested. Luckly another CHP arrives then somehow they figure its real, i get the handcuff's taken off without any apology about the mistake they tell me to leave. Pissed me off so much becuase they didnt apologize, Ive been pulled over a total of 15 times in the last month and a half. I dont drive like an ass or speed. I dont hate cops but some could atleast lighten up. wow sorry for the long post. |

/\/\ I like the "nut", thats very common I'm guessing.
Last time I got pulled over the cop opened my hood, and saw a bone stock KA, but since I had blue NGK wires, They somehow figured that I could have "NOS" in my car, So they pulled thier flashlights towards my firewall, guess what they saw? shit, just my fuel rails and crappy underhood paint.. so lame. Fuck Cops, Dont Drive Stupid and you shouldnt worry, If you have a illegal Swap then get a daily driver, If you have an illegal swap, and choose to use it as your daily, then dont bitch when they siren your ass. keep the beast at home ( swap ) take out the warrior ( DD ) And I agree with everything Aaron is saying

I got pulled over last night, but the chick officer was pretty cool. I don't think she wanted to give me a ticket, she just wanted to check me out, and make sure I wasn't drunk or anything.

3 weeks ago i got pull over on my daily drive 96 accord inside UCR. the officier requested me to pop my hood and intend to cite me for the AEM cold air intake. he thinks it is illegal because the filter goes underneath the car and he suspects i cut the hole in the airbox location. He also bursted out a photo diagram that tells him what to look for. i tell him to call AEM to varifey the design and the CARB sticker number, he refused. Lastly he asked me if i have any JDM stuffs on the car. And than he cited me for the loud exhaust (went to refree and got it test out 93db, dismiss) and no front license plate. idiot
