Yea it's true. They're also towing cars that have been slammed right down.
If they see a modded car with heavy exhaust they'll pull you over and give you
an inspection ticket. Watch out when driving down Alexander and No.3

my thoughts exactly.. and if you've gutted the cat, you'll need put all that stuff back in before going
to aircare.

it's not as bad as people make it out to be...

they're only targetting the ricers who "appear" to be heavily modified...and those that are modified illegally...eg. where you're car is so low your body kit for example is lower than the bottom of your rims, or if your wheels rub, or your exhaust exceeds the decibal ratings etc...illegal front tint.

mainly the only people getting ticketed / towed are the ones who've done some illegal mods.

most of the other cases are the ones where the cop can't quite tell and then decides to give you a VI instead...

I wonder when the cops will finally lighten up on their stupid prejudiced policy?

I'd be pissed if cops could waste my time because I have tint or wheels or a honda emblem on the front and back of my car.
