You are a complete moron. First off your tint comment, inaccurate or not when they check how many times do people get pulled over for tint and its within 5% of the legal limit…ABSOLUTELY NONE! And how many times have you been pulled over for speeding and the speed the officer told you is way the fuck off? Because I have had my fair share of speeding violations and the cop was dead on each time. Cops can pick any vehicle they want to pick on if it looks suspicious or obnoxiously loud. And maybe they look at kids more then adults but if you know that don’t give them more of a reason to give you a problem. You could just grow up quit crying about being picked on by the cops! There’s laws for a reason (nobody gives a fuck if you like them or not) if you choose to break them in any way shape or form, suck it the fuck up and deal with the consequences. :banghead People like you are the reason cops give kids/young adults a reason to pull over and give a hard time. ---

Whoa dont get your panties in a wadd. I never had a ticket myself besides one warning… im just saying there the law and then theres how cops interpret the law and on all three scenarios… tint (within 5% and the machine can be off 5%), speed measured with k band (might be dead nuts one time and wrong the next google and research how radar works) and loud exhaust (no specific decibel level) theres people i personally know who fought those situations and got the ticket THROWN OUT! not reduced but tossed because they argued the same points I explained prior then throw in the age fact and that spells “RANDOM” who is the cop gonna pick on next… ---

The only situation that would make sense to me is if it was speeding or any violation that involves points. > [@How much is your car worth...to you?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-much-is-your-car-worth-to-you/18334/65): > > mm fail NYS doesn’t have a set db level. it’s left up to cop ultimately if he feels it’s too loud or not.:retardclap:Idiots. the retard clap is for the offsniffer not u by the way. > > my shit is all totally legal and i avoid that shit like the black plague or now days like the swine flu.

I’m not trying to be a dick but why do you have a problem with people in positions of authority? Because I know a lot of people who say that, but if they were the person in that position of authority they wouldn’t be saying that. ---

My shits all legal, but I still prefer not having to deal with checkpoints. I have spent enough time in DMV paying for reg and title, and insurance that I dont need the extra hassel from a cop that just wants to bust my balls for his pride. ---

I was told by a NY State Trooper friday night that ANY aftermarket exhaust is ILLEGAL in NYS. It’s just up to the officer’s discretion to give you a ticket or not, there’s no need for a dB limit because only oem exhausts are ‘legal’. ---
