I wish they’d stop people in my area who don't signal, drives me nuts. I was stopped for a seatbelt but was told my exhaust was too loud, I know thats bullshit because when I rolled by him (he had another car stopped at the time) I had let off the gas & pushed the clutch in. “revenue generators “ thats all they are ( no disrespect Jim ).
Yeah. And people whose brake lights don't work. That one scares me sometimes. And there are a lot here like that. I'm anal about my brake lights. I back my vehicles into garages, so I check them every time I park them and before pulling out. Every bulb on the outside of my Ranger has been changed at least once, some more than that. But at least I do it.
Cops around here don't pull people over for much of anything. It's a catch 22 though. I appreciate not getting pulled over for no license lights on my two motorcycles, and my three "cages" that don't have a single reflector or side marker light on them (LOL). Or for not stopping me for loud exhaust or tinted windows, and even my Mustang and Lightning which have a light tint on the windshields. But there are a lot of rolling wrecks here. Windshields with so many cracks, you wonder how they can see out of them. Missing lights, bumpers, fenders, and even windshields. Bald tires. And peeps driving around with paper tags on their vehicles that are so old, the numbers are no longer even there. You have 30 days here to exchange that paper tag for a license plate. Most don't even do it in three or four years. When you buy a used vehicle here, the original owner keeps the plate and you have three days to get a new one.
And don't get me started about I-240 in Oklahoma City. I was on it one day on my Suzuki M109R. I was doing 90 and being passed by just about everyone else. Speed limit is 70. I sped up to about 100 and gave up after that, and got the frak off that road. Must have been a bunch of Cylons out driving that day.
