BUSTED!!!

I was on my way to the ravens game last night and on of those fake @ss toll facilitiy cops pulled me over and asked me if I knew how fast I was goin. Of course I did cause as soon as my radar detector picked him up I checked my speed...53mph, and I told him, Yea I was doin 53, why? He said, well You have blue lights. I said no they are white. He insisted they were blue and held his flashlight up to my headlights and said his light was white, mine was blue. So I told him his batteries were goin dead and his light was yellow! So, I have projectors BTW (All Clear) he gave me a repair order for the headlights, taglights parkers and blinkers, all of which I have PIAA extreme whites in.
Shouldn't these guys be out fighting crime beatin on bad guys Pullin me over for clear bulbs?... PLEASE! If we made every mini-truck and compact enthusist drug dealers then these @ssholes would have a real problem. Go pick on one of those fenderless roofless tube framed 1932 or whatever rolling home made pieces of junkyard archive! Or maybe one of those loud@ss harleys instead of some honda with a full DOT approved cat-back!
They are the type of cops that make donut jokes funny. They are the cowards that see a drug dealer doin 100+mph in a $80,000 car and watch him pass. In school we used to call those guys Bullies!!! So, no matter how much b!tchin I do I still have this 15 day fix it ticket even though the law clearly states that: All bulbs in the front of the vehicle must be amber or white... Nothing says anything about a pure white or dirty, yellow white... Oh well, gotta pay to play

If you still have the packages you can take those to the judge and say, "Hey, these are the bulbs in my car. See right here, it says 'white'. Thank you very much, good night."

Peace homey...I feel for ya...

Man I don't think we have those 'fix-it' tickets in Canada. They sound like a pain in the @$$. Can you just put the stock ones in , kiss their ***, then put your piaas back in after? I have Piaa xtreme whites too, and they aren't even that blue, not like plasmas. That's so funny that he said his yellow-*** flashlight emitted white light -lol. What a freakin' idiot I'd like to kick his biatch-*** for you man.

actually they have the right to pull you over for anything. The law stated anything other than factory is considered impoper equipment. So it doesn't mater if it is dot approved or not. So like even if you had a different radio in your vehicle they could give you a ticket. I do agree with you anyway.

Yup...I've been through similar experiences and I agree that there are more important things they should be doing with their time. But hey, that's life. Some cops are just itchin to give tickets. Take it to court though. I'm sure you'll win [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

That sucks. should've tried a piece of paper, and showed him that on the paper was still only white. then whoed him how the flashlight turns the paper yellow. Also, just take picture's of the car, then show them those. I did that with my Extreme Whites and they are actually yellow in the pictures.
