Im sure cops down south love imports, its probably 10 times worse in the south than it is here.
WTF are you talking about. Not being rude just letting him know they arent legal for on road use. It says it on most aftermarket parts packaging. Not just headlights either. We all know this and by mods any way. getting stopped is just something your gonna have to deal with.
Haha, sorry dude. It was a joke, I forgot the :rofl
sounds like good police work to me. you should have received a written warning or a fix-it ticket though, for doumentation purposes ofcourse.
Maybe he was being serious that he was betting me the ticket that my exhaust was illegal or something. In that case, I should encourage such things in the future, and keep a stock axleback on the car forever (and put a cutout after the cat when I actually make more than 110whp).
Alpine, that’s a pretty cool filter you used in photoshop. Which one is it, since I really don’t fuck with filters that much. Although you might be onto something with the LSD headlight look.
Lens flare. :lol
srsly its just because you have a H on the front of your car. I get harassed all the time in my 100% stock civic and I drive speedlimit to, ftp.
word, I’ll have to remember that. Maybe a fisheye lens effect would make that image perfection. In all seriousness, when I checked the aim on them, I walked 40 feet in front of the car, looked straight at the headlight, and knelt down until it was really blinding (there is a pretty quick change from not bad at all to holy shit my eyes). I basically had to be sitting down on the ground in front of the car at eye level with the headlights. So I suppose if you are laying in the road, they might be pretty bad, although you likely have other more pressing issues at that point in time. I knocked them down an inch or so for good measure still.
I know, thats a huge part of it. If I had a shitbox cavalier or something I probably wouldn’t have gotten pulled over (likely because the car would be abandoned having been killed with fire somewhere).
I did 90 by a officer on route 9 yesterday and he didn’t even look over at me…
yes, im serious.
I saw an on duty cop do a burnout in a cop car Friday night
we got a NYS trooper to do one up at the Adirondack nationals a few years back
I have several friends with Honda SI’s one exactly the same as yours who travels from Clifton park to Washington ave everyday of his life and he never gets pulled over. Odd.
Good shit.
The one I saw was in Worcester and the cops there seem pretty cool.
its because you look like youre holding dope.
both true :lol
and your flat brim BRO.
I should wear my glasses more when I am out doing dumb shit with my car. With glasses, I just look like a geek. Without, I look like a stoner/hippie (its the long hair). I’ve gotten away with far more when stopped while wearing glasses than without.
Wearing glasses, and having one or more computers in the car allows you to claim “LAN party”, and you can get around suspicion about being out at absurd times. It works even better when you have to explain what a LAN party is.
I get pissed when people only think about themselves, such as the OP in this case.
Did you take a second to put yourself in his shoes? He deals with lowlife scumbags on an hourly basis. Do you think they are polite to him? Treat him with dignity and respect? I don’t think so.
So how would you feel if you had been dealing with that bullshit all night, just to have to respond three to four times a night to a bunch of retards fighting and doing burnouts in cars that very closely resemble yours? All for around $35K a year I might add.
And that’s why you go to college or learn a skill.
It’s like my favorite response a comedian has for the question “you know why I’m standing here outside your car?” “Because you got all C’s in highschool?”
Sorry to burst your bubble but you do need to go to college to be a cop. State Troopers need a bachelors. Most city/county cops need an associates.
Why is it that you feel it’s ok to bust on someone for doing their job when you are in fact breaking the law? Don’t want to get shit from cops? Don’t break the law. Very simple concept. If your riced out yellow headlights are worth the harrasement then by all means enjoy. Just don’t go running to mommy and daddy and complain when you get yanked.
