I dont speed so thats not even an issue. Couple other time i got pulled over for not wearing seat belt or having front plate but ive done that with my other car and never got pulled over. numerous times i had a cop follow me till it was out of their jurisdiction.
Yeah, that probably has something to do with it.

and don't start this freedom bullshit, you dont know what's it like to live a country where those are cleary taken away from you. the police are highly trained pros that are doing their job. whether you like it or not.

wrong. thats exactly why i dont even get into it....too many people just assume things and they dont know shiet. i lived in korea for my first 7 years of my life before i came to america so dont pull that bs about going to a different country. secondly you must be blind if you think all of them are doing their jobs. i know some cops that are corrupted as hell but thats a differnt story im not even bashing at any cops. it seems like you have something against me practicing my first amenement.

ummm, NO. . . I blend in with the other upscale Acuras, and NOT the Integra, because those are the guys that always get shit

im on exhaust, a good system that can go LOUD, and a beast of an intake at the top end. . . only got pulled once because of any of it, that was for excessive acceleration, trying to get up to speed. . . all other times it was because it was my fault. . . speeding. . . couldve got another one last week, but there was a car going barely faster than me that REALLY stood out above me (3rd gen Eclipse, flames on the side, big body kit, and the huge ass wing)

i love my car....its just lately ive been getting some bad luck with the cops and just wondering if it was just the car or me being in the car. I also think it has to do with the color of the car also since i have a black one it seems like it attracts it more.

Oh man. If you want to see corrupted police system and cops that are trying to bring as much money as possible to the city, come to Montreal... IT IS PURE BULLSHIT! Here.. if u have a little mod on the car, its illegal and you get a ticket.

Non original muffler? MUFFLER TICKET!.. even if the muffler is quieter than the stock one and has everything a regular muffler has.

And if you car is stock, you still have a chance of being pulled over and given a ticket for something... This city is ridiculous.

I wish i lived in the states to drive my car.

read your post? you posted one the most incoherent, lazily written sentences i've ever read. whatever dude, you got pulled over, it happens. stop crying.
I wasnt complaining really. I understand why he pulled me over. He had nothing better to do at 4am and my windows are like vinyl at night. I dont blame him I guess. I was just saying that it was funny he followed me well out of his jurisdiction AND i had my townships cop behind him as well.

ok, w/e man. im from russia, probably home to the most corrupt law enforcement known to man. police brutality, extortion, unlawful arrest, bribes, police killings....you name it, its been done. so to me, when a cop pulls me over, gives a little shit about mods, driving habits or does a drunk stop....and i'm free to go afterwards, without getting pulled out of my car, beated to the ground, stripped of my money/valuables etc...i consider that freedom and happy to live in a country like canada. so stop whining and realize you're more fortunate than others.

ok I realize you're only 17, so I'll let your grosslly incorrect statement slide. Liquor is only sold in a state run lquor store until they close usually 9 p.m., sometimes 10 p.m. That si the ONLy place in WA to buy liquour except on a indian reservation, they have their own rules.

BEER on the other hand is only sold until the WA state cutoff of 2:30 a.m., still pretty late. If we could only make beer as well as the Canadanians, tho.....

I really don't think the color of your car has anything to do with it, that just seems pretty ridiculous to me.


As for Montreal...damn Frenchies, we almost had them.

Glad I'm not the only one who looks like a dumbass when parking and making U-Turns. My friend drove my CL, and he's able to park his Ford Explorer better than the CL. Pathetic, honestly.

yeah, and if you live pretty much anywhere but most of eastern washington, theres a res 5-20 miles away. the res is like 1 mile away from me. liquor stores not on the res here close at 9, thats just because theyre shitty and they get no business, everyone goes to the res. the res sells liquor til 11. the ampm in town sells 24/7. matter of fact, i was at ampm at like 245 last night and saw some friends of mine run in and get beer.

i personally dont have a problem with the turning radius. I usually pull a U-turn on a two lane street and if i dont accelerate too much i can usually make the u-turn with no problem. Now if its a one lane then for sure im going to have to do a 3 point turn.

Just letting you know what the WA state laws are. 2:30 is the law. Now, if you have a friend that hooks you up, that's different and kicks ass , but it is illegal and a huge fine/possible suspension of license to sell alcohol form 2;30 till 6:00 am.

Splitting hairs, man.
