Scan of ticket or :bsflag:

There is no way that’s possible to get and no one here has ever received one.

“My idle is too low and I have to keep on the gas”

I’ve owned several cars like this. It’s a lot more interesting when the car is an automatic, and it won’t always re-start when it stalls. That makes driving interesting.

Quite a BS ticket if you ask me.

In what used to be the good ol’ USA, nearly everything is potentially illegal. Yes, there are crimes of intent. Obviously, hard to prove. But if you really think you are “innocent until proven guilty” think of the cost (time and money) defending against such a charge, retarded though it is. Used to be, in the days before the neo-cons, there were candidates you could vote for who would stand up for personal liberty (“real” conservatives who wanted to limit government power). Now, forget it. The liberals have always thought the government knows best. Now, the so-called conservatives are no better, or maybe even worse.

well you can get busted with drugs. and depending on the amount, there is the intent to distribute charges.

i wish they would give tickets to the harley guys who rev at every stoplight because those piece of shit bikes that dont stay running. but then again they would get tickets for pipes as well.

a friend of mine got a similar ticket in his vette down in NC. it can happen.

the question is: was he revving his engine because he was going to race someone? or was he at a redlight all by himself?

Been there done that. It was my 79 ford. the cam had such a wicked idle it always stalled…partly due to the bad tune on the 750. Either way I had to keep the rev’s up. a 400 with headers and straight pipes make alot of noise. Cop said he could give me a ticket for “hotroddin” ??. I laughed, tried to explain my situation…I did end up getting a exhaust ticket though.

Maybe not but it probably sounds like one.

Anyway, I still don’t buy this without a scan of the ticket.
