[QUOTE=redheadfred]Of course you can, this is America dammit! Take that ish to court and win!

But no, there was something to do with a law enforcement officer baiting you into breaking the law that wasn't allowed...I of course have not had my coffee yet today, so I could be making stuff up.[/QUOTE]
see, i would see the argument if the guy was dressed up in street clothes in a street car and tried to get you to race, and then once you hit the gas a cop pops out from a driveway and pulls you over. But you should have enough sense to know when someone revs on you, that doesn't give you the RIGHT to race them...

Right, I'm not saying it gives you the right to race, really that should be kept off the streets no matter what. BUT, this being America:

"In jurisprudence, entrapment is a legal defense by which a defendant may argue that he or she should not be held criminally liable for actions which broke the law, because they were induced (or entrapped) by the police to commit said acts." -the lovely wikipedia.org

So...yeah, we agree. Don't race.

is that a direct quote of the law?

because if it is.........I coulda fought a couple of tickets...

Hmmm, well, here's the quickest link I could find with a legal definition:

So I guess it's up to the judge to determine if you were "ready and willing" to break the law anyways. Which probably wouldn't be too hard unfortunately thanks to stupid people racing all the time...

quick way to avoid the ticket, dont waste your time street racing

[QUOTE=06WRX4ME]quick way to avoid the ticket, dont waste your time street racing[/QUOTE]


the winner!!!!!! lol...

id never pull over for any car with those small red/blue lights, i want a huge light bar to show up, even crown vic headlights, id make the cop speed in front of me to prove it. But ive never been pulled over at night.

and how do you prove in court that the cops running lights werent on if they radar you? unless the cop is under oath and wont lie, but still? seems like they wouldnt fess up.

you get him to admit to it, because most cops dont know about that law.

BUT this will only work in Cali.
A buddy of mine still got a ticket even with all favor. Its also very much dependant on the judge... nice judge = better chance...etc..

pfft... ive seen vw bug cops... corvette cops... toyota tundra CHP... camaro CHP.. and a new mustang CHP.. i dont know how to tell between v6 and v8 from the outside tho
