Judges in Cali almost always go with what the cop says. Cops will just say that I was lying and the judge will belive him. Didn't want to risk the very high chance of that happening and see my insurance go way up. BTW will insurance raise the rates more for a driver who is 20 than a 25yr old?

 

Most insturance companies will charge a 20 year old more than a 25 year old because of what the statistics say.

I got pulled over 2 nights ago for a broken taillight, the cop just sighted me for no insurance (I didn't have my card on me at the time) so now I simply have to take it in to the courthouse and they drop the charge. The funny thing was, I had the spare bulb in my glove box, my left side went out one of the last times I drove the car and I bought a 2 pack, so I got pulled over with the replacement part sitting there, I even showed him that and he just kinda laughed. Veteran plates are an amazing thing to have, you actually get treated like a person.

 

What can I say but ...quit speeding, quiet up your pipes and dont let the K-('s start sniffin yo car

and don't let any lights burn out....

 

and don't drive while wearing a baseball cap ..... that's something they used to use for profiling up here.

My mother got pulled over while driving my first car ('89 Z24 Cavalier, electric blue w/ metalic gray ground effects and DIY tint). The cop told her that he pulled her over because she was driving a kid's car!

 

I thought they required lawfull reason to pull you over

 

I think its the best thing since sliced bread! That still doesnt stop a bored State Trooper from F'ing with you.

Not when youre a commercial truck driver. They can pull you over in order to inspect the truck for safety. Now they cant go digging thru your truck looking thru your dirty drawers without probably cause but they can easily find a reason. Basically youre at their mercy.
