Under Drag-Net, San Diego officers come to train other departments how to look out for what they believe to be tell-tale signs of illegal modification such as window tinting, large spoilers, extra gauges or racing stickers. Police say this gives them probable cause to stop and inspect a vehicle and its engine compartment.

That's some funny ****. :rotfl:

exactly the reason why I am building up a 1971 Datsun 510......I can drop a friggin' blown 350 in that thing if I want and no-one can say a damn thing......

ME= "why yes, officer, this WAS originally a 4 banger...but it didnt have enough power, so I dropped a blown and built 350 in 'er.....I'm puttin' down about 700whp right now."

Officer= "hmmm, you said 1971?"

ME="yes, sir"

Officer="Damm......smog exempt....you may go "

ME="hahahahahahahaha! <as I am driving away>"

If you have a STI or EVO w/ tint you better be careful because you're like a prime suspect. :x

I bet they wouldnt pull over a modded Porsche of Mustang or something. Its only the asian cars and stuff. But hopefully this is only for SoCal and wont affect us to much considering most of the street **** happens down there. If they want to stop speeding and street racing dont pull over modified cars pull over speeders!

My favourite quote:

"The concept, which originated in San Diego in 2001, has been spreading throughout the state and generated significant revenue for the California Highway Patrol and local departments."
