I used to live in Texas, and have gotten a ticket for not having a front license plate. Don't risk it, they WILL get you.

Celica00 · 01-08-2013, 08:53 PM

This what happen I was on the way home last night doing 75 on a 70 m/hr road and next thing I know there is cop pulling me over, so here I am thinking he is gonna give me a ticket. Well he walks up to my passenger side window and ask what kinda car is this? So I told him its is a frs and so on. Well after about 15 mins of me showing the officer my car he finally says ok sir keep the speed down a tad and have a good night and walked back to his car.

only in texas! eh! he! he! are you sure this guy wasn't a relative,and knows you? gotta admit,if you was doin' 75 in a 70,kinda doubt he would pull you over,no matter WHAT you was drivin' don't make a whole lot of sense for an officer to do that in the first place,and then talk to you for 15 minutes about your car! ???..was the road empty? not many cars? even more reason NOT to stop you,if you was doin' 75 in a 70!..just sayin'

It was about 9:30 at night and there wasn't many cars on the hwy either. i think he was sitting at this gas station and saw my go by and was like what kinda car was that? would be my guess. Cause I've never seen the guy in my life.

jmaryt · 01-08-2013, 10:13 PM

ok! gotta admit it sounds kinda f**ked,but i guess it really happened! as you say!

Bullshit, I would have taken that to court. No radar or lidar to prove it... hope you didn't settle for that.

I had a guy at a gas station ask me if it was some Italian sports car... lol.

I just got pulled over for window tint, it was a whole whopping 5% over legal(30% instead of 35%) and I have a prescription to go as dark as 20%. Apparently a prescription isn't good enough, you have to have an affidavit. Instead of telling me that and me giving a chance to fix the paperwork, he tells me it's not good enough and gives me a fix it ticket. I'm so pissed!

You understand they cant soley pull you over just for tint

mashal · 01-08-2013, 11:48 PM

How do you tell how much tint someone has ? Especially a 5% difference ?

Cade01 · 01-08-2013, 11:55 PM

He used a light transmission meter on the window. What I would like to know is if it makes a difference if the window is measured at night as opposed to in bright daylight?
