blue sidemarkers..

according to my local city pigs, they're illegal. i got pulled over lastnight for having them, the cop was all cussing at me and junk, so i decided, if he can be a ****, so can i.. i told him since our streets sucked, i wasn't too mad, and that they needed the money more than me. Then i asked if i could decide which pothole they fix with the money since i have to drive on their shitty roads. Our roads suck, our entire city had a budget of $330 two years ago to fix potholes and such. What cheap crap. I didn't get a written warning or anything, so i'm definately fighting it..

Well yeah, they would be illegal almost anywhere. But if it's the first time, you should have gotten a warning. Any pics of sidemarker?

nah, no pics. i might go big and take my boss's lawyer to court with me. i'll let em know about the cops cussing and searching my car without permission too.

their cars should say "to **** off and annoy" not "serve and protect"
somebody robbed a KFC lastnight, i bet they were too busy annoying me at the time to actually catch real criminals. dumb cops..

taking it to court and complaining that he cussed at you and searched your car without permission has nothing to do with the fact that you got pulled over for wrong colored sidemarkers. best bet would be to change the side markers, shouldnt cost you but maybe a few dollars, and then show the court and they will dismiss it. Now doing all the other stuff about taking your bosses lawyer to court will only cost you alot of money. you know he wont do all that for free. just fix it and be on your way. basically cops have the right to cuss and what not, they are COPS. they will get away with it. there is nothing you can do.

Cops that abuse their power just suck. They assume that everyone that owns a modded civic deals drugs or something. I wish they would get off that crap and stop causing trouble for everyone. I would rather have cops be stopping killers and robbers than worry about some car and it's lights. Maybe they have nothing better to do.
