Hit for no front window Tint on Automall in Fremont (Cop was White, Rossette, hope the white **** get shot one day).

hit for going 50 in a business zone (I'm guessin' 35) with no sign (that I'm sure people speed on since there were multiple car shops on that row) in Fremont before I even got my plates. Cop was white

Hit while driving my Dad's Car on Automall (let off with a warning) in a full red body kit Celica GT-S going 50 in a 45. (Cop was a dick and asked me to pop the hood, I told him it was stock and he looked at me like I was lyin' to him. Go figure, sports upgrade manufactured from Toyota itself.) Cop was White.

i only say this because they really don't have much to do. just today, they had 3 motorcycle cops camp out on san ramon valley blvd. pulling people over. they like to do this once a month for some reason (probably filling their quota )

I just got my silver 05. three days after i bought it I got stopped on 580 East past santa rita in Pleasanton by this CHP officer I see every day. All I had was a down pipe an up pipe and an STI exhaust, with a 5% tint in rear and what I am guessing is a 30% tint in front. I was ticketed for the window tint.

Probably didnt help that when he approached and asked "do you know why I pulled you over" my dumb *** response "since Im in bumper to bumper traffic I am going to guess it wasnt for speeding" yea got the ticket. Explained to said cop as I am a 31yr old caucasian male. After the ticket was written and he was explaining to me how to take care of it was when I decided to inform him that I train SWAT medics for a living so getting the ticket taken care of would not be a problem for me. SERIOUSLY THOUGH. Window tint has to be the biggest chicken **** ticket you can possibly write and it is.

- sedan or wagon?
2005 Wingless STI

- what mods can be seen from outside?
Exhaust, Window Tints, Lowered, Wheels (not sure if those are considered but oh wells)

- how much louder is your car from stock?
My car is loud. Catless TBE

- how were you driving?
Frist time: LOL, uh 5mph in traffic, sh*t you not
Second: 65mph (freeway)

- what did the cop say/do?
Frist time: Gave me a fix it for my tint and exhuast. It was bs considering i was in traffic and not even about 2000RPM's.

Second Time:
Again, crap, I was going the speed limit, they got behind me, checked my windows and pulled me over. This time they had my hood popped and went looking for other mods. Issued a fix it for window and exhaust.


PS. These were both CHP and not local OPD.

I used to drive all over the east bay with no issues. Driving life was good. Had a loud relatively flashy wagon. Moved to the peninsula and started getting hammered with tickets. Slowed waaaay down. Tickets kept coming. I took off the exhaust, and the problem went away.

Bottom line is they can pop you anytime they want. All it takes is for them to have a flashback from getting picked on in 6th grade with you in sight, and bam! If it bothers you drive a prius.

I've always thought this to be our collective biggest reason to get pulled over. I got caught for window tint in my old GTi, which was NOT 'street legal' and there was no mention of anything other than my windows.

Tint is a BS ticket, but remember that cops like to take the easy road, just like us. Why would they hustle all day and catch the real threats on the road when they can park under a shady tree and pop 20 cars a shift for tint.

Stock looking exhaust FTW.

I'm sure having a melon shooter doesn't help, but I think it's the sound not the look that is what catches their attention first. Especially on a crowded freeway or quiet neighborhood.

It's too bad. The suby sounds great for a four banger. I had a CHP compliment me on it once. Must feel kinda weird to have to shoot down cars you actually like.

Officer : "Do you know why I pulled you over?"
Me : "Not really, I'm guessing you didn't like something I was doing"

- Don't admit to a speed when pulled over for what could end up as a speeding ticket. If they didn't have you on radar or didn't pace you, then they wont have enough proof if you decide to go to court.

Officer (looking hard @ hood scoop) : "You have any mods?"
Me : "Stock intake, stock turbo" and then not a word after that, no need to mention TBE or even suspension. Borla is 'low profile' as the last 4 cops that have looked at the muffler just ignored it.

Officer : "Would you like to step out of your vehicle"
You : "No thank you , it is night time, and I am not wearing reflective clothing. It would be a safety hazard for me to open my door and step into oncoming traffic".
- This one was told to me by my buddy in Oakland PD, really useful at night when you're stopped on the highway.

Officer : "Why is your front plate angled like that? Are you trying to avoid Fastrak, red light cameras, or my Laser?"
Me : "It looks better that way, my fastrak is paid up, and you said you got me on LiDar when I was merging at 60mph onto the freeway."

Don't even let me get into the ride along tales by OPD buddy has about CHP.

Please DO! Because for what ever reason it seems my luck with CHP has been questionable, very questionable.
