start carrying your own radio shack meters.
the $50 cost up front is priceless when a cop goes up to you and asks, "do you know how loud your car is?"
"yes... yes i do, officer..."

cops aint jealous of your subaru...they could care less...im pretty sure your exhaust is too loud, almost any aftermarket parts you put onto your car is illegal. Fight it if you like, but im sure if the cop testify you will lose, cause he will know things normal citizen dont know about the law. Alot of laws are not that clear cut. Also stop your hating on cops, they pulled you over cause you got something illegal on your car, not because you drive whatever you're driving. I use to drive a modded rsx with the type r wings, bodykit, lowered... and everything, but i made sure i got my front license plate, my exhaust is stock and i got nothing big on my rearview mirror, I have never been pulled over and I lived across the st. from a police department.

But can you just make an appt. at a ref. station for the DB test just as an "FYI" for myself without actually having a ticket? Cuz, I wouldnt mind having that "cert" in my glove box just incase. You never know.....

And that jealous comment was obviously a joke.

bingo ex-ricer...people need to stop hating on cops who give them tickets...get a cvc book and look up the laws yourself to make sure before doing things to your car...and all those items that you buy from motorsports/online store that states "50 state legal" are all bs. They just want your money. I stick up for Five-o because I am a "Five-o," and I did drive a modded rsx and i am getting an sti in a few weeks. If I got pull over I would never id myself as a cop to get a "professional," break...I know the law and I follow it. Thats why I dont get pull over. Go to your local DMV and get yourself a free cvc book, if you cant get one there, go get one eles where. peace.

Of course not Endless, but dont hate on the cop, people always hate cops, why? because they tell us what to do, they cost us money, they cost us time...I know all that...but learn about things before doing it to make sure you cant get a ticket for it. We all speed, but when we get caught and get a ticket, me get mad at the cop...why? I dont plan to put the front license plate on my sti, and I know I have too, so If I got caught and got a fix-it ticket, I know I deserve it. People hate on cops too much...way too much. Yeah there are bad cops and that sucks, but most are pretty cool. Dont get smart with them, and more likely or not you wouldnt get a ticket. Unless youre a cop, you have no idea how hard their job is and you have no idea why they do the things they do.

I'm not sure if you realized it but you walked in here for your first time and fired off a really cocky sounding post.
