Default my story of going to the beach....

well i went to the beach the other day with my gf (at the time) my homie joey and his gf... and we went to venice beach. so we are turning the corner onto a street where there were a bunch of cars in a line waiting to get a spot in the parking lot... so as i was turning the corner my friend joey was telling me about how much **** cops give me for my car.. and i was like yea true.. it is bs... and as i looked forward i saw a cop standing on the left side of the street and he starts to walk across the street and as he gets to the other side of the street he looks directly at my car and starts walking towards it... so im like oh great... here goes more ****. and the first thing he asks is if my car is registered in california (of course it is stupid cuz i live here) and then he asks me to pull over to the side by the sidewalk... so i do... and look what he gave me

the officer has shitty writing and people probably won't give a damn about his info.. anyways, i filed away the part that those nuts attach to, so when i went in for my "no plate" ticket, they let me free since there was no place to mount it "from the original manufacturer" LOL

Dude thats why I am glad that I live in Georgia. The cops don't give us **** for our exhausts, don't have to have a front plate, and half the time they only pull you over for going like 10 over the speed limit.

Don't mean to be a dick but he's right... laws are laws and yeah some cops are dicks, but they're dicks with authority and power, in most cases it's better to grab your ankles and take it like a man

Don't feel bad man i got pulled over on base 2 times in the same night within 5 minutes or each other by the same cop....

First it was for driving the wrong way down a one way road, then for a noise violation because of my music (didn't have exhaust back then).

I haven't had a front plate on since back in April when i got my front bumper fixed. never gotten any slack for it ever. Yeah Va does have that crappy super high fines. I was back early this month and every one was bitching about the fees. Kinda messed up that out of stater's don't have to pay the same fines.
