I was pulled over for window tint the first time: removed
2nd time: Harassed for my info, let go
3rd time: Harassed for info again, let go
4th time (today): TRD EXHAUST!!!!!


Are you kidding me!? I am STOCK STOCK STOCK (aside from looking dead sexy). I have nothing but a megan mid and a TRD exhaust. It has almost no noise. I drove by him at 3.8k RPM and he pulled me over.

I am SOOOOOO not paying the 10 dollars to replace a (legal) exhaust! Especially since I don't have a stock one to put on!

You have got to be kidding me. I am going to drive my car into a center divide today. I swear it.

Wow. Did he do a sound reading or w.e it is on the exhaust?

I got pulled over twice in two weeks once for tint and no plate and second time because there is a large car meet every sunday at the starbucks by my house and i guess there was 12 cops there to tell everyone to not come anymore, i didnt go yet on my way home from my gf's house, i was pulled over and asked where i was going and why...i just have tint and a progress drop, but i think the progress stickers on my window make it look bad so i might just take them off.

beedee

that sucks paul, especially with everything else you've been going through.

anurok

Nope...he just told me to fire it up and he said "this is not what a stock scion sounds like"

I said "I know, it has a TOYOTA RACING DEVELOPMENT axle back on it"

Officer, "I don't care"

Thanks for calling me back Paul!

Well after you get done with that center divider, go get an EVO, thats the smart thing to do...

Sorry for the poor lighting and Camera Phone pictures...

Did this all happen in the same area of San Diego, and if so, where? Was it the same cop, any of those times, or 4 different cops?

The tint I'd expect, even though so many peeps seem to get away with it.
WTH does that "harassed for info" mean, what was their CAUSE to stop you?
Bit of a hassle, but I'm sure you can keep the exhaust if you contest the ticket.

anurok

I say harassed for info as in my ID, insurance, registration...which is all legit. They never said I was speeding, loud or causing a ruckus.

It was 4 different cops ALL in El Cajon. I live and work in the area so most of them have prolly seen my giant blue berry ninja.

Ugh, the back of the new Evo X is just hideous...The rest is nice, but the back just looks like it's saying "hey, I'm an Alfa Romeo that wants to take it up the butt". Back on topic, the TRD ticket is BS, if there is no proof on noise violation, then it won't hold up in court.
