Default finally got pulled over

i have been running painted headlights with a clear reflector for about 2 yrs now and tinted tails for about 5 months. last night i finally got pulled over at the bells road exit on 95 heading south. got 2 tickets for headlights and tail lights that dont meet D.O.T regulations...

so now 1400 dollars later im sporting 06 head and tail lights... really didnt want to spend almost 1500 for lights but oh well. they go good with the ings+1 body kit.

post pics later

quotas are myth??? ok they might be, but you cant say they dont have some sort of competion or challenge among them?! I mean, they gotta eat donuts right? Not having quotas explains why the 1st ticket i got in VA, the cop had a FOLDER for a time period of 3 hours with over 150 tickets........i know, i was number 0073 of the morning!! Serve and protect my @ss....


oh yeah, ticket was for 6 over

Quota's exists but they don't exists..

most PD's are not required to set a quota limit for tickets written, however there is a bench mark of how many tickets an officer is expect to write to be considered to be doing a good job or not doing a good job.. so its basically an un written quota..

that being said... those headlights for sale? j/k

Troop C in New York located in Somers NY actually allows the Trooper who writes the most tickets on highway patrol to drive the camaro for a whole month the next month
