Writing tickets pays the government. Saving babies cost the government.

I had a cop make fun of the FC once.....I had a 2.5" DP and 2.5" piping into an HKS Dragger..............the ****** said it sounded like a sewing machine on steroids and then said "I'll let you off because your friend is laughing his *** off (at the sewing machine accent....he almost peed his pants)" then drove away......I don't have that problem anymore (RB turbo-back)

I got you all beat, when i got my S5, i took it home, the next day i had to drive it onto the street to move cars around in the driveway to give myself more room right.
Im pulling my S5 out onto the street, before i can even get completly on the street (in my secluded neighborhood) bike CHP drives by, turns his lights on right away, tells me to shut the vehicle off. so i do it, thinking "wtf?" I was very polite to the female officer as i always am...(really i am!) so, here i am, hanging half way onto the street, half way in my driveway. Cop asks for lisce reg, and insurance all that crap. i tell her "well i just baught the car yesterday, im moving it onto the street in front of my house to move other cars out of the driveway (i have 5 cars in my driveway....dosnt leave much room) she procedes to tell me its illeagal to operate a vehicle if it dosnt have registration and insurance (...no....really?) I get a ticket for no registration, and no insurance. AND was threatened to have my car impounded. she decided not to impound it, because she had "more important" work to do...
I have bad luck with cops...i practicly pay for sacramento to keep cops on the road.

Yeah, If only id know then what i know now. Got this ticket about 4 months ago. already payen for it. its ok, ive had other bad/stupid tickets, got my car impounded for suspended liscense, except my "suspended liscense" was a court/DMV miss-communication. And nope, they wont credit me the impound fees...just waived the tickets.

you guys ever hear of reaction formation? al the people i know that want to be cops have very serious emotional/psychological issues. especially those swat team fools!!! i had an uncle that was on the swat team and he was just one fucked up person.

I remember I was driving my friends 1992 Honda Civic CX Hatchback. It had a B16A2 Jdm SIR motor, Intake, Header, Straight Pipe, Cat-back, CTR cams, and we were doing 70 in a 45. Cops pulled my cousin and I over, and he also had the same type of car, but B20 motor in it instead. The cops popped both our hoods, and were like, you guys are fine. My cousin had a roll cage also LOL. This was in south san francisco area.
