i dont understand how you people manage to get equipment tickets in herndon, mainly khan artist, although im sure that the way you drive, you deserved it. I have been pulled over several times for stupid shit like he thought he saw my inspection sticker was dead, and it wasnt, so he was like ok have a nice day. I was running open header with my bottle hooked up and open...
But yes, they have been alot more lax about speeding and such lately.

i've never noticed any cops being total dicks unless youself are being one,like swerving/flying through traffic. You just gotta know where to look for them. Watch out goin down herndon parkway just past crestview towards dranesville rd. cop always at the bottom of the hill, and also on crestview just past the 7-11 goin towards sterling, always a cop sitting parked with the other cars on the side of the street. and on 606(sterling rd) goin in and out of herndon.

I can vouche for efb16 because ive been in his car numerious times in herndon and they really dont give 2 shits about his car. I personaly when i had my license and also had my 300zx NEVER had trouble in herndon, But now that I own a honda its just a matter of time when i get my license back that im sure a herndon cop or 2 or 20 will be pulling me over for exhaust (hince the reason im looking for a stock one)

just because you were doing something illegal doesn't mean you are gonna get nailed. The officer could have been gettin ready to go out of service, or was down a report or two. Perhaps he was sick of pulling traffic and would rather not get out of the AC unless he really had to. Also equipment violations are the best probable cause for an officer to pull you over. If you are driving at night and are border line dui, don't drive you car that has a loud muffler, or your car thats missing the front tag, of dead tags and inspection. Altered suspension have been known to get you pulled over as well. Officers write these tickets as well because it generates revenue for the county or town they work in. Officers who write more tickets generally will get promoted faster than those who don't. Use your heads when you have something inproper on your car. You know its illegal yet everyone bitches when they get a ticket. You have to pay to play.

You can still have a muffler, its just that you got to know how to drive it. And I have had my brracket for the front licence for this and my escort, and have had no trouble with the police for the 8 months i have owned the car.

The type of car plays a big role in whether you get pulled over or not. There are cars that attract cops' attention more than others. In my school parking lot there were over 200 cars, I got a front liscense plate warning, and I spotted more than 10 cars that didn't have one in that parking lot.

Ricey cars also get towed first, ask any tow truck driver, unless they are so low they require a flatbed.

lol, I don't even think you can get a ticket in that thing. What are your plans for it btw? A buddy (mr. fraggs on NSF) had one and I kinda got into them.
