I have gotten pulled over by a mid 90’s green Suburban in Mass. My family has also gotten pulled over by a porsche at one point too in Mass. Btw…Didn’t the Troopers on the northway have a 300zx at one point a couple years ago. Also…on a side note…isn’t it NYS law that a cop has to have a Visible Light bar to be able to pull you over? ---

its pretty bad when police officers can steal your car you built now…if it were me, and if it was my car…I would be breaking into the police barracks and stripping my whole car down to nothing…its pretty bad when you gotta do that. ---

Unless it has official markers, I am not pulling over. I’ll go to the nearest state police. Glad to see we spend soo much resources on critical things like street racing. Fuck terrorism, rapes, and murders. We are cracking down on street racing. Next year, we will apply the dealth penalty to people who park in handicap spaces. ---

The only reason i can see that they’re trying to crack down on street racing is because of all the recent deaths associated with street racing. I agree too with the not pulling over unless it’s marked on the side, i mean who would take a Cobra or turbo 350Z for real if they had flashing lights? i’d assume it was someone fucking around. ---

Start comparing stats on the # of deaths outside of “street racing” and you will see that you are more inclined to die from something else. So, I ask again, why are we wasting our money? ---
