I'm looking at AT LEAST 500 for a speeding ticket I just got.... Average parking ticket (my tires stick over the lines on both sides) is $70 here :nono:

Yikes! $500?? That is alot of play.


I'd like to see a pic of the tails. I had a 99 cobra with tinted tails and I never had any trouble.

I seem to rememebr a friend of mine from my old RX-8 club getting a ticket here for tinted tails. I think it was $150 but cant recall. Ive alwasy thought that ANY modification to tail lights was illegal.

Cops can be dicks. I just got pulled over a few weeks ago. I ask what the problem is since I was doing about 33 in a 35 in town. His remarks "your brush guard is illegal since it has a bar over the head lights, the lights on it are two close together (need to be 20" apart he says, turns out they are 22" center to center), bumper height just passes, and my tires stick out about 1.5" past the fender flares". He was like I am just warning you because a state trooper will fine you for that. He went on to say I have a lifted jeep and that truck of yours is really nice. Then on my way I went.

Here in Michigan we have some kind of Driver Responsibility Fee thingy that if your crime qualifies (speeding, oui, etc) you pay the ticket AND pay again every year (up to 3 I think) depending on the severity.

Reminds me of when I got pullednover in my lifted land rover on 35s. Cop warned me about bumper height, lights, and tires stckng out too far. Then he went on to tell me my truck was bad ass and gave me his phone number in case I ever wanted to sell it.

when I got into my accident with my trialblazer, state trooper comes up to me and tell's me how he like's the truck. i told him it looks better when it has a bumper that doesnt get hit from by a civic. he laughs and say's "that's why i love trucks"

civic was totaled...and he made note that trucks can take a hit and that's why he likes them

LoL it's alright, I just paid $500 for not stopping at a red light at an intersection with those cameras. Was just barely crossing the intersection when it turned red.
