Got pulled over yesterday for ride height and hids. In some states like Texas headlight beams must be 24" or higher off the ground. The state trooper
Measured it and everything and said to adjust the suspension and nice ride then handed my ticket.

I never understood that because what about like lambos or other exotic cars that have a very slanted nose? Ya I understand stand the 240 didn't come that way but doesn't it apply to them as well? Same thing with a "no front plate ticket" I know a lot of cars dont even come with a space to mount one..

If the LEO needs to measure something on anyone's car he initially needs PC to pull you over. How do I know? Well I write 40-50 speed citations a week and none involve HIDs, headlight height or front license mounts. Oh I have a 240sx too, damn.http://icandy.zilvia.net/img/smilies/doh.gif

That didn't answer anything.

You have to ask the LEO for his or her probable cause. If taken to court you can probably win.
