This is so true... Ugh, MN drivers. Don't get me started on their merging skills, or stopping at the bottom of the onramp.

Same as those ****shits that swerve between lanes/keep changing lanes in stop-n-go traffic (trying to be in the fastest lane). It actually makes the traffic worse! And they don't get any farther ahead!
This is very true; there've actually been studies done. It's because people are going side-to-side instead of forwards i.e. each driver doing this is actually traveling more miles to reach their destination. A small amount per driver adds up to noticeably more traffic congestion for everyone.

I got stopped for tinted windows again on my way out of work by a highway patrol on a motorcycle so you know those guys are trying to make quota. I thought this would never happen but dude let me go! I think he just wanted to check out the car... after asking me for license and registration he started asking me about the car. He asked how it drives, if there are any turbos out for it, if my exhaust was stock then he was like I'll let you go off with a warning just get the tinted taken care off

Tinted windows = fix it ticket right?

So unless you can get a "friend cop" to sign it off, you have to remove the tint from front windows?

My friends son got a ticket here in the GTA for HID's the police said were "too blue" or some shit. Which to me doesn't make sense because if you can buy them here in a regular store like CdnTire then they should be legal?

Anyway he's a young black kid so I think the cops just got the idea to give him a hard time.

I got a wreckless driving ticket in my 88 Porsche 944 for squealing my tires. Thing is it was some yayhoo in an integra next to me trying to get me to race him. But the cop saw a young man in a red Porsche and decided to harass me instead. Matter of fact the assisting officers first words were " oh look we pulled over someone in daddy's Porsche." Considering my dad hasn't talked to me in 7 years that was a bit unsettling
