Just got a call from Paul Knucklez, apparently there is a checkpoint pulling over / towing cars & bikes in the LA area between 3rd / 4th Wilton. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up about this hotspot, I'm assuming its for modded cars he witnessed a few tow trucks towing cars away and more waiting...

Beware

 

towing modded cars? er?

 

Never heard of modded bikes getting "towed"...

 

sorry i was writing on my sidekick at school



just a warning to people from a phone from a fellow member... the exact details and why peoplewere being pulled over is something i am not clear of

but just tried to warn you guys whether you think its BS or im mistaken im just trying to look out for fellow Z guys who travel or commute through LA

everyone knows SoCal is notorious for retarded muffler tickets and other things
anything goes nowadays....

 

It was I that made the call to Ben. A LOT LOT LOT of street bikes were getting towed.. Included in the "tow package" was a bmw, handfull of hondas and some trucks. MOSTLY street bikes though. I was amazed at how many tow trucks there were.. First time seeing a bike get towed too.. It's pretty sad, they swing around the tow trucks hook ****.. Hopefully none of the bikes got damaged.

 

yeah i go through wilton often, because westerns too jammmmed! thanks for the heads up, i didnt see it or hear about it, but nice to know. better safe than sorry.. only if i didnt have my tp, i woulda rolled by and checked it out. lol

 

ricer honda pulled over by lapd on western today around 9pm ish.

lotta cop cars rolling around in ktown right now...

 

yea I was coming back from work and saw all these modified cars and bikes being towed... don't know what the deal was though.

 

thanks for the heads up!

 

Another reason NOT to drive my Z in K-Town..

 

What type of mods can cause the car to get towed. Straight pipes/test pipes and FI....anything else?

 

ALL ricers need to get their cars towed!

 

I still don't know why they would tow bikes - there aren't any emissions standards on them. :shrug:

 

thx for the heads up

 

thanks for the feedback guys and clarifying the situation more, with me i just dont want to take any chances






anything that isnt CARB legal w/o a carb sticker you can get busted for... if your intake doesnt have a CARB sticker you can get sent to the state ref for it. usually though cops and CHP look for the shiny can in the back that doesnt look stock



gluck guys and be safe

 

Actually there are emissions devices on them.

 

I would love to know the real reason for this "checkpoint".

 

+1

 

Thanks 4 The Heads Up Ben!
