That should tell you how bad Arkansas is.

I can understand makoto driving to autozone or something with no tags, but what dumbass does a 3k mile road trip w/o tags. I find it hard to believe that you saw tons of cops and even talked to border patrol w/o tags on a car, especially an 850i.... sorry but I gotta call bs on that.

tonight i got a repair order from a cop that gave me a spoof repair order in November 04. I pullled off from a red light and got about 3 feet and he puts on the light, comes to my car and says," U dont have a aftermarket exhaust(yes i do) it too loud sir ill have to right u up. I got a 55 dollar ticket which ill pay and a repair order which ill pay someone and have stamped by some car buddie .

Another night of hanging out with a 240 with a huge wing lol

[aznpoopy]

no ticket, but i was stopped at a light and a cop came up to my window. my front license plate is held on by zip ties, and i didn't bother to cut the ends off. they stick out straight in front of my car.

he asked me what was up with my license plate.
i said it was held on by zip ties.
he asked me why.
i told him i used to have it held on with bolts, but they kept falling off so finally i ziptied it right to the bumper.
he told me to cut the ends off and drove away.

besides that incident, i got pulled over for speeding and cop let me off with a view obstruction ticket (anything that hangs from your rear view mirror). that's pretty much it. be respectful and don't talk back like a smartass, and most cops will end up being pretty cool. maybe it's just my area?

... and I agree with Kevin... I have been stopped on the way home from the DMV with the new registration sticker in the seat next to me, I have been stopped because the tag was in the back glass on the way home from the paint shop, I have been stopped in my caprice because the tag was flipped down leaving the gas stationm I have been stopped for some other shit that was completely invalid, but I have no choice but to call ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT when you say you took a 3k (that is THOUSAND on this planet) mile road trip and did not once get stopped... This story is as assinine as that bish at Wild Magnolia's that night that tried telling the guys and I that she'd once had 7 flaming doctor peppers without getting a buzz, let alone drunk

no its not just your area, its just that a good majority of people are too immature/assinine to realize that if you treat cops with respect they tend to be pretty chill usually....


as for the incidents phlip mentioned... I was riding shotgun w/ my buddy in a late 80s/early 90s body camaro and we got pulled over for having the tag down, small county, cop taught us senior high DARE, walks up says "Hey tony, how are you?" blah blah blah, walks to the back flips the tag up and says have a good evening, and to corroborate w/ your stories he was the backup at another traffic stop about a 1/4 mile down the road when we passed him with the tag down, he apparently got into his car and caught up with us cause I guess one of the first things they are trained to look for is the tag/reg stickers....

Lol so yesterday i was in my cousin's car with him driving, and a cop pulled us over.
Copo you know why i pulled you guys over?
Us:no
Coptalking to cousin)your buddy there didn't wear his seatbelt.
Ush but officer we were wearing the seatbelt.
Cop:well it doesn't matter, it looks like he has it under his arms, which is NOT allowed.
Ush alright, we didn't know that.
Cop(instead of letting us go with a warning...)here's your ticket, wait for us to send you mail.

You know what's gay? Cops don't even need a good reason. Whether they are right or not, they give out like random tickets. Most cops don't just pull people over accusing them of something, then suddenly change it to something else cuz he wasn't right about the first one.
Sucks for me..heard it was like 500 bucks too. Damn.

Sucks for you also, when you get in an accident while wearing that seat belt tucked under your arm. I thought only children did that, complaining that seat belts are "uncomfortable." Hah, it's like the tv commercial says, cops write tickets to save lives.

[hellspare]

Funny thing is, i've been wearing my seatbelt like that since i was born, no one ever told me it wasn't allowed lol. Coulda at least given us a warning..

I also got a big ass cut on the top of my right shoulder from a bike accident, which gives me a reason to wear it under my arms. You think i got a chance in court? And how much is the fine?

[aznxplayer]

dude....i got a not yeilding to pedestrians....this was 2 years ago.........my 240 was bone stock and a mustang nxt to me was revving for some odd reason. still in high school off to lunch, i was making a right turn. he said i pushed my way through the kids....but ummmm i dont think its possible to just push someone outta the way in a car. stupid ass cop. he was the school resource officer too >_< got one point for it

anybody can get a loud exhaust ticket, my roommate got one in his lifted ranger here in san diego.

but I also drove a camaro with my exhaust sawzalled right before the cat for about 3 months with no pull overs, just got a warning for driving like a douchebag one night.

Got stopped for screeching my tires comin around a corner pretty fast by my school, and got a ticket for not having my insurance with me and for not having a front plate.
