> Nah bro, no problem and im not calling your pops a liar im just saying I’ve heard the quote ordeal right out of the mouth of a state trooper AND local colonie police officer, they BOTH need to fill a quota each and every month.
if production (number of tickets) is low, obviously the head of the station typically a sergeant, is going to get involved and say you gotta pick your act up.
thats a verbal “warning” of such. i see where your coming from, but there is no where in any NYS, and im guessing local county doctrine, saying there is a quota.

not necessarily, doesnt matter if i drive like an ass or if i drive normal, i still get yanked on a steady basis, its not only profiling anymore, even in “normal” cars i get yanked. The cops out here in the sticks are ridiculous.

YES.
If you drive by the “tint guy” with tinted windows, and he can safely pull you over, then you’re going to get a fix-it. There is no “I drive too normal to get away with it” or “be polite”. If you’re breaking the law, and especially if you drive by the officer with that assignment, then you’re going to get a ticket unless it isn’t safe for him to pull you over. Although I’ve seen CPD yank some ridiculous u-turns in order to get people. :lmao

You’ll still get stopped, which is almost as annoying as receiving a ticket. ☹

I got a warning for one of those covers when I had my Maxima.

Didn’t have much time to gawk as I was trying to run down the light to get onto 87. No front plate. Stock silver split fives.

When you have a bright red widebody and a hoodscoop, they’ll pretty much pull you over because you avoided eye contact as you drove by…
Knock on wood, been good lately, but I’ll get pulled over tomorrow now. Keep you posted on what the consequences are.
I wish I had that damn tint sticker… Now I just talk to my tint friends or swap out my windows with my non-tinted pair 🙂
