OMG ok i was driving around a suburb of milwaukee at about 8:00 P.M. a little while ago. Just before that i got in a big fight with my gf so i was kinda pissed off. So im driving around with my friend in this city. At a light we see a group of kids we know so when the light turns green i just took off. I have a 02 Ex with Skunk 2 cat back and AEM CAI so you can hear me pretty good. As i slow down i hear sirens and see lights in my rear view mirror. So by this time im freaking out cause ive already been pulled over 3 times in less that 7 months. I figure the cop must have gotten me for speeding. It turns out the guy is a state trooper. I roll down my window as he walks up to my car and ask "so how fast was i going" and he says "You werent speeding". I have the most shocked look on my face. But get this... he was following me for like 5 miles and he was behind me at that light and pulled me over becuase my exhaust was too loud!!! So he says hes just gonna give me a warning and then asks for my liscense. So i go for my liscense and turns out i left it at home!! Even after speeding and not having my liscense the guy gives me a break and just a warning. He told me to get the exhaust more quiet so i open up my trunk and as im looking for my silencer I see a giant muffler that im selling to one of my buddies. So that cop sees that and even after that he still doesnt give me a ticket. So i shove the silencer in and that takes care of the problem, but of course i will take it out[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] But that just proves that some cops can be nice.

Heh, Milwaukee. Where Harley's are built. I swear about 80% of the Harley's around here is at least 10 dB louder than most Civ exhausts.

Wow bro you did get really lucky or what my sister BF was racing a buddy of his to each red light and after 5 lights the cops comes up pulls them over and my sisters BF was all yikes, the cop goes I have been watching you guys all 5 lights. So he was were you racing he was all hell yeah and the cop goes get out of here. His other buddy was sitting there and wouldn't admit it to it and the cop goes your buddy admit it and he got out of here with no tickets and the guy admited finally. So they both got off ticket free very lucky.

Nick

The best thing you can do with cops, well besides not breaking the law, is be honest. I get pulled over probably once every three months. But I've only ever gotten one ticket. I was doing 110 on the interstate (75MPH SL) just to see how fast my civ would go, and then when i was satisfied, I dropped it down and got pulled over. The cop flipped a b¡tch and when he walked up he said he had me at 86, but he'd bump it down to 85 to keep it off my record, and save me $20. Nice guy. I was so happy I paid the ticket right there.
Otherwise, as long as you're honest and don't try to "get out" of the ticket, most times they'll go easy on you. It doesn't hurt to admit that you were stupid if it saves you from getting a $75 ticket.
And I drive like a retard all the time. People hate riding with me, it freaks the hell outta them. heh heh

Loud exhausts are really annoying, not to mention unlawful, but I believe in giving someone a warning and some time to fix an equipment vio before it is written up.
