More dislike of cops (some), and the state system!

I posted this in Regional, but I want more opinions. How F'ed up is this?


Ok, I was going down beach blvd in huntington beach with my sister in the car, and this motox cop is 2 lanes across from me (I'm on far inside lane) and we both are at the front at a red light. He looks over at my car, I had my windows down to all but a little crack, and then proceeds to take off at the green light. I cruise down Beach, and I see him sitting on the corner. I pass by (I know I'm not doing anything wrong) and he pulls me over. I'm like...WTF? So he gets me for tinted windows, tinted front winshield, tinted tail-lights, and no front license plate. I was like...you fukin @$$HOLE!! I'm thinking, oh well, $10 fix it...not bad, whatever. I get the ticket in the mail finally...


$208 plus proof of correction!


I mean, cmon now.... I wasn't doing anything wrong at ALL! There's no way he could've know I had tinted side windows because they were down to almost a crack left. If I'm not doing anything wrong, then why pull me over? I mean seriously, do COPS who do that go home to their wives and say, "hey honey, at work today I pulled over a guy." "Oh, what did he do?" "Nothing, just didnt like the fact that he thinks his car is BADASS (even though it came from the factory that color) and so I decided to write him up for a bunch of stuff just because." Hell, I bet he doesn't even have a wife to go home to. He probably beats her or whatever.

And NO HAWGS, I don't need to be reminded that I was in the wrong, cuz I know I was. I don't care about that. BUT CMON!!!! YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO WITH YOUR DAY (So you just pull some guy over for the hell of it?) And just so everyone knows, there's like 2000+ codes in the Penal code book, and each has more or less for each district and state. So I don't want to hear, ya, but you were violating a code. Cuz we ALL violate a code in one way or another. I even know there's a code that says if you're driving to close to the line seperating lanes, you can get pulled over.

you have a tinted front winshield? :rolleyes:

Do you understand you were driving an illegal car or not?

I'm confused, you know you were in the wrong and you're complaining about that? There are many reasons why they do not allow tint past a certain darkness. One being so they can see people in the car when they walk up to it. The last thing a cop wants to do is walk up to a car (not being able to see inside) and see a gun pointed at his head from the rear seats.


Why do people constantly post this cop gave me a ticket for (insert broken law here) and complain about it? Grow up people you broke the law and got caught, deal with it.


Edit: fixed a quote..

Thanks Patrick... you make it too easy for me. ;)

I will say it like I said in the other silly thread... I am not an angel when I drive, I speed I never use a signal while changing lanes and I don't have a front plate. If I get a ticket for any of that its gonna suck, but I will suck it up and not b*tch and moan about the ticket because I know I was breaking the law. You know your in violation of the law, you said that you know you violated the law... if you're not in violation then you have something to whine about but you are. Suck it up, grow some balls, and get over it. :rolleyes:

how F'ed up are you? dude, you have issues and it's not the police.

Once again. "I was driving an illegal car and I got caught, whaaaaaaaaaaa."

Perhaps you should give up driving as it is too much responsability for you to handle.

[epic]

Yep, you're fault. Sorry, I'm with them.

If you don't want tickets, don't have illegal things done to your car. Simple as that.

I got a ticket for no front plate, I didn't come *****ing on here. I paid for it and found a more clever way to park (facing a wall). [img]smile.gif[/img]

Pretty soon you arent going to be allowed to do anything to your car. Cops where im at gave me 2 tickets for having windshield banner. It was above my factory tint at top of windshield. It hurts nothing at all. No clue why thats illegal. ALl ofmy friends are getting exhaust tickets and there not loud they just give em tickets because the exhaust is 3+ inches. They see big exhaust they see ticket. Heard story man bought brand new Dodge truck had the factory loud dual exhaust put on it and state trooper gave him an exhaust ticket.With a cop you cant win. They are there to take your money. They do help when it comes to making house calls and wrecks but when they write tickets to young kids because they did somethingto make there car look "cool" then they are just being gay. I agree on the dark window tint thing because i wouldnt want to be risking my life by walking up to a vehicle i couldnt see in. But mirror tint does look awesome. The laws on cars are only gonna get stricter because the old folks watch too much 2f2f and when they see a nice car they automaticly think "Oh look hes a racer and a law breaker". I feel for you 98gold.

[hawgs]

Maybe you should become a rap start Shaun since you feel like "the man" is holding you down so much.

What do your friends have 3+ inch exhaust on?

[SirShaun]

Man isnt holding me down. "The man" wants a raise and meet his quota or whatever its called.

Cousin had a 4 inch exhaust on his galant with cat gutted wasnt loud and he got 3 exhaust tickets before he sold it.

Cousin has a cavalier with a 4 inch exhaust its HKS and not that loud hes gotten 2 exhaust tickets i think in that.

Friend has a toyota truck lowered a bit with chrome 18s on it. Hes gotten like 3 exhaust tickets with his 3 inch exhaust.

I could keep going if you wanted me too.

[hawgs]

No... that proves my point quite well, thanks.

Maybe your friends need to stop putting obnoxious exhaust on their economy cars and family sedans... I am sure all those cars with those exhausts sound like absolute horse sh*t. I would give a ticket to any cavalier with 4" exhaust on it just for being a retard.

Think about it... any decent person would let a TA go even if it was kinda loud, but some tool bag in a Caviler who thinks he is the next Paul Walker and puts 4" exhaust on his car and makes it sound like a pissed off weedeater with laryngitis is going to get a ticket everytime.

[epic]

4" exhausts on those cars...some people amaze me. [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

[SirShaun]

Actually the Galant and the Cavy sounded quite well. They both had body kits so its not like it looked gay with a big tip. Cousin got a Tiburon 3 days ago 2000 model. Has Body kit front and back with a 4 inch exhaust. Exhaust sounds nice on that car. Hes waiting to get his first ticket for it.

Sounds like you hang out with a bunch of ricers... my dad always told me "you are who you hang out with", so whens the ole 3.4 getting a 4" exhaust setup?

sh*t i wish, but that only happens in mexico where the police really will take your money, and then take your car and use it as a patrol car. here, i just tell you where you can go so someone else can take your money.

gutted cat? loud exhaust? who are you trying to kid?
