So I was coming up on a stop sign on the back side of Target on Sunrise. Parked cars lined the sides of the road, as they always do, but little did I noticed that the end car of the right side was a squad car. I couldn't see it because he was in front of a larger truck that was parked. Well, I was going to make my stop, so I down shifted into second gear, and the second I got it into gear I was right next the the cop. I knew I was going to get pulled over because of my exhaust. I am stopped at the line, I make my right turn, the second I start to go, I see the cop start to pull out. I knew it, he turned on his still lights and I pulled over to the side.

I turend off my ignition and had all my paper work ready. When he got to my window, he was oddly polite. I have him my stuff and he asked if I knew whyhe pulled me over. Knowing it was my exhaust, I said I have no idea. He told me that my exhaust sounded a little loud. I told him that I had a silencer that I could put in that would reduce the sound level. He said that I would probably be best if I did that to avoid other units pulling me over. He then asked if I minded popping my hood. Knowing that everything was completely stock, I did not hesitate. I asked if he wanted me to get out, and he said that was fine. So he looked over my engine bay briefly. I was impressed, he was able to point out a lot of parts, including the turbo. I was impressed that he some what knew what he was talking about. We talked about the car for a few moments or so. Then he suggested that I should mount my front plate that way I don't give officers ammunition to write me up. Then he said I was free to go.

Lol, I think that he really just wanted to look at the car. That was honestly the nicest cop that I have encountered in any "pulled over" situation (being the driver or passenger).

 

That's cool of him. I've still yet to run in to a cop that was nice and didn't write me a ticket....actually, I'm looking for a cop that would let me go without writing me a ticket.

 

I got away with a warning this morning on sunrise before jackson. He said "How about an *** chewin' and a get on down the road?" I said thanks.

 

CHPD has always been cool to me, even back with my eclipse when I was living down there, and the arcade was in birdgage, I would drive up and down greenback every day, never had one problem.

I did have a chpd pull me over once tho, but he just wanted to look at the car

 

I'll become a cop, pull you over just to let you go. how does that sound?

 

That would rule.

 

lol, I am actually considering the CHP....

 

I've never gotten a break from the CHP. Not enough X chromosomes i guess

 

yeah, females get off way too easy sometimes

 

"boo hoo.. I cannot believe I was speeding officer"*bats eyes*"I promise never ever to do that again"*Flashes Rack*

 

What exhaust setup are you running?

 

Skunk2 Catback.... the only aftermarket Exhaust that I have seen that stays under the Decible limit of 95 is Greddy with 92. My Skunk2 is 103 I believe, but if I put the silencer in it will take it down a few....

 

the officer hands her a "get outta jail free" card (it has his phone # written on the back) lol

 

Next time we are both at the Sacramento gathering, I would like to see how much louder your car is than mine or vice versa...

 

We should do some exhaust noise tests, but we need to find a place to do it, so that we aren't harassing the people at the meet spot. I'd be interested in seeing who's is teh loudest.
