So I got pulled over

I got pulled over tonight. I was going down Flavel and a cop passes me. I go three blocks and stop at a stop light and theres a cop behind me. I sit there and go "Huh, theyre out in force tonight." My Girlfriend just looks at me and goes "I guess."

Light turns green, we go, the guy infront of me turns left, even though there is a turn lane. He turns out of the go straight lane. We get through the intersdection and the light come on. Bwoop.

He comes up, asks for license and registration/insurance. I give em, he takes em. He says I'll be back.

He comes back
"How old are you?"

"Seventeen"

"Where ya headin?"

"Winco to get her some lunch stuff."

"Ok. So heres this (hands me my stuff). So this vehicle has so many violations I don't even know where to start. i pulled you over for no front fender flares, your license plate is in an illegal place, then i got behind you and saw you had no license plate light, no mud flaps, the top of your license plate is bent over, and that chain hanging from your bumper is very illegal." (i had wrapped my tow chain around my bumper brackets, and made sure ir couldn't come off)

i say "Oh. I didn't know the front license plate was illegal and This is a Perpetual Project truck, I'm in the middle of doin some stuff to it."

he says "Ok. Understandable. Now I'm gonna let you off with a warning, but if i were to give you a ticket, all this would amount to about $600-$700 worth of fines. You might wanna fix that. But have a good night and drive safe."

I said "thank you sir, you too." And drove off.

Guess I'm lucky. He probably figured "hey its some redneck on a saturday night who's been drinkin. I'm gonna pull him over and see what i get."

Dude I hate getting pulled over!!!

And there is anyways a way they can pull you!!! Allways nomatter what you do of drive!!!!!!

LUCKY.

Pretty much. And the rest of the night I saw at LEAST 15 cops.

Auburn cops were out in force last night. Its probably one of the states 52X nights, where they have extra patrols for drunks.

Keep your junk legal, or close as you can to it. It'll save you all the hassles.

I've seen a huge step-up in nightly patrols lately. I can't seem to drive anywhere late at night without seeing a po-po every five minutes.

We were bar hoppin from auburn to Issaquah and back to auburn last night. didnt see a single cop. Fun times being the DD..

You are very lucky! When I got pulled over just my no flaps and front plate amounted to $400 in tickets. And when I came home from the concert last night there were cops almost lining the streets. I have never seen so many drunk people in my life!

The concert kicked ass huh.

There were ALOT of drunks. There were al least 5 people just in our general area escorted out for being sh!tfaced.

Stupid thing was, is they had a bunch of 'alcohol enforcement' people there. This one Dbag, watched me buy 2 beers from the stand. As I walk by the asshole, he asks me for my ID. Im like are you F'n kidding me? Threatened to have me kicked out and beers taken away if I didnt show him some ID. F'n jackass.

Fixeded.

I went to 'Dirty' a bar / club in Portland on Friday night. I spent $43 on drinks.

On the way home, the guy who was driving us all home, got pulled over. got a DUI.

I had to drive the car to the police station and pick him up and drop off the rest of the guys...

$43 worth of alcahol, and I only blew a .043...

The driver only spend $30, and he blew a .134...

Oh- and on topic - I used to get pulled over all the time for mud flaps, fender flares, tail lights out, whatever...
I bought a tow rig, and am much happier to be legal all the time.

Both girls were around 19, blond, skinny, had "features", and had uber short skirts:lickout: I felt bad since I kinda danced with them a bit and ignored the girl I was with for a bit:wierd:

I have friends who've been pulled over several times in my area, but I have never been pulled over for Jeep related stuff. I think it has alot to do with my rigs appearance/shape compared to others. As in, my Jeep isn't all dinged up. Everyone I know who has a rig that is obviously a trail rig (lots of dents, missing rear bumper, lifted 6"s, etc.) get pulled over all the time for fender flares, mud flaps, and front plate.

I drive by cops all the time at speed and am amazed nothing has happend regarding no front plate, no rear flares or mud flaps, etc...I'll consider myself lucky though.

Just relocate your stock flares, and fab up some brackets for some mud flaps. That's exactly what I did, and I haven't had any issues (even with cut quarters). When you get to the trail, take the flaps off.

The officer was also pretty cool to just give you a warning, it sure beats a ticket.

The only time i've been pulled over was on the Peninsula by a State Patrol. He looked shocked that I was driving it at all. He warned me about my windshield, no front fender flares (my driver's rear got ripped off during the trip) and no mud flaps. He pulled me over 'cause my passenger tail light was out. He let me go with a warning. Couldn't believe it!
P.S. DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!

Well, i put my front flares back on. I was gonna do some more, make some mud flap brackets, but i got carried away with putting my hinda prelude buckets in my truck. Comfy.

my brother got pulled over in his xj for "haveing to much dibre on his car" has anyone ever heard of that . when he told me that i laaught thinking it was a joke
