I got pulled over 2 weeks ago on 6th Av and kippling, Lakewood. The cop said that my rear tinted plate cover is illegal, and if I was in city limits it's a 3 point violation and a $50 fine!! WOW!
The cop was cool and only sighted me $10 because I was outside city limits.
Look out if you have a plate cover, tinted colored or clear.

well yeah.
they teach that in drivers ed

lol at least you got out of it

 

You just been through DE? Haven't been through that in 20 years man!

 

Damn! I just got a ticket for $155 for running a YELLOW light in LoDo. I'll swap with ya!

 

Oh no when did this happen?

 

so you can run yellow lights now.. wtf lol

 

How many point was that?

 

haha yeah i have. couple years ago. (Still young)

 

Fight it man, fight it!!

 

Maby I should sit in on a refresher!

 

I think it was like the 12th....I could go fight it but it comes down to a cops word against mine. I was 5 mile under the speed limit (traffic heavy thank God!) and I watched the light all the way through the intersection (who doesn't when running a yellow?!) I never saw any red. sux!
Fight the power! Where's Phu?! I feel like putting a verbal beat down on him!!!
J/K man

 

cop is saying it was red when you entered the entersection?

 

wow 3 points is freaking harsh for a tinted license plate, considering the limit before losing your lic is 12 points.

 

I don't know what the "rules are" but He said what's the rush, I said no rush and that I saw the light through the whole intersection and never saw red (again going under the speed limit on a VERY WIDE intersection, Colfax and Speer) Again my words against his....

 

if some of you guys remember, on my first cruis with you guys as all of you followed me down c470 towards Garden of the Gods, i was pulled over by the HSP chemical truck for a tinted license plate! WTF! he made me take it off as i was pulled over on the hwy before returning to the group!

Im with ya Kev, we need to really tint our plates. I say pure black!

 

I got the same exact thing.

The cop even pulled me out of the car and did sobriety tests haha.

Luckily, I was ON MY WAY to the party and not BACK =)

Even though I wouldnt have been driving.

 

I'm going to have to look into that. I know that it is illegal for ANY type of cover, including plate frames, but I think it's a 0 pts violation, and it doesn't matter about city limit because traffic violations are State regulations and most municipalalities just copy that of the state.

PS: I've never had problems with Lakewood cops, but they don't like to be called "cops". They want you to call them "agents".

 

I hope your kidding Phu...
Agent P, this is Agent G, we are going to write you a ticket then matrix the **** out of here!
