after my math final i left school and made a late stop at a sign...when i looked up the cops were on the other side of the road...didn't seem they cared, so i drove off and they turned behind me...didn't think anything of it until i saw those Damn LIGHTS...rolled down my window and he told me to cross the intersection and pull into a parking lot. While he was taking my info he asked me if i could roll up my window because it looked a little to dark. The other cop came to my window and measured the tint. They found out that my tint is 3% and wrote me the ticket for my tint and passing the stop sign by a few feet... my total is $350... Then he tells me that legal window tint is anything Above 25%... Lastly he tells me that the main reason for the ticket was due to the tint, but they didn't want to stop me just because of that "we didn't want to be mean."
throughout the whole process i was calm about it and didn't over react since i decided to get the tint. ive had my tint since the beginning of summer and this is the first time any authorities say anything about it... |

Fall season of 2006. Good old me driving my old celica to the pet store. I parked my car and got out just to see a a cop stick his face like an inch away from mine with other hand on his gun. As I tried to figure out what the hell happened he turned around and walked back to his car without saying a word. So I went into Petsmart and bought myself some fishies, food etc... probably spending there at least half an hour. So I come out and do a quick look out. I see 2 police cars parked waaaay on other side of the lot by Target just sitting there. With rows of cars in between I figured they would not even see me come out and after all I did not do anything wrong. So I make a step outside the door and see both cops pull out slowly so I walk back inside... I give it a good 15 minute pause just for a good measure and came out again and both cops were back in their spots. So I make a bee line towards next door store which happened to be pepboys and made a 911 call expressing my concern of being stalked by what could be police impersonators. A little while later I see both police vehicles pull out of the lot. So I walk slowly back to my car thinking I was in the clear and as soon as I sat in my car I heard a knock on my window. That was #1 ticket for my 5% limo tint. I pull out the lot and get pulled over by that 2nd cop and that was #2 ticket for tint. Mother effers tagged teamed me all the way from that parking lot back into my college dorm. I got 25 tickets worth a total of over 1 grand. Their pathetic excuse that they could do whatever they wanted because stopping me was counted as separate incidents. I made it home about 5 hours later (and that was a 10 mile drive). Of course I took them to court and judge had cahones to tell me right in my face that I was in the wrong. With family lawyer, 3 return trips to the court house and a $478 lawyer fee I ended up serving 9 days of community service every saturday for the next couple of months. That was the last time I had tint on my windows. Prior to that incident I had a similar nasty incident. Driving down to my parents house my plastic under engine cover starts scraping against the asphalt. After ignoring it for 20 miles I pulled over and took my tools out and got under the car and was in middle of removing it when a cop holding a gun very err persuasively told me to get from under the car. He tried to give me a ticket for going 80 on a 50, reckless driving, improper passing and obstruction to the law. That was somehow with me being under my car stuck for half of hour with one of my wheels off and car up on a jack. Of course I objected and he ended up writing me a ticket for tinted windows because other officer told him on the radio that he passed my car a long while ago. Overall since 1999 I have been pulled over 74 times paid heavily in miscellaneous retarded fees for everything from having aftermarket parts to my stereo and thankfully never once officially issued points to my license. Oh sweet christ, sometimes when i hear stupid crap like cops tag teaming people with the same bs i wish we as citizens could really say whats on our mind instead of getting another ticket or going to jail. Cops are supposed to protect not just hassle on people on the same crap. -------------------- 2nd Gen 3s-gte.... It lives!
