i dont think its bad luck or a coincidence that more and more people are getting tickets. when im at work I drive around the whole city and lately ive been noticing a lot more police pulling over cars.
if you're other 2 lights were operational on your work van that's a bull**** ticket.

as for the two tint tickets. Unless they're limo tinted I hate those tickets too. This stems from my CA lawmakers get paid to much and have too much time on their hands. A lot of the crap folks are getting busted for in my opinion shouldn't even be laws.

I getting worried now. I have a helix catted DP and HKS Hi-power exhaust. This state is such a piece of sh**. Even my dirtbike can't exceed 96dB and its a off highway vehicle.

I had to go to 850 Bryant last night to give a statement about a non auto related issue, was like "great, right into the belly of the beast with my modded car."

P.S. - We should have a sticky on the main BAIC page with like a google map where you can pinpoint where you got pinched and add it. How say you nerds, doable?

American built. Even police deparments roll in them. I have some loud a** Harley's roll by me. One dude had a patch on his leathers that said "Loud Pipes Save Lives". Ya no sh** you hear them coming miles away.
