Possible Car Color Change, So, so, so sick of it all Options

[Coomer]

I'm so angry right now. I was driving on my lunch break going straight on a four lane road in the right lane, going about 38-40 in a 35, and this Intrepid pulled right out in front of me. I locked up my brakes to avoid hitting the car, stopped, then sped around the car and got in front of him. I didn't really cut him off, but he floored it, got probably five feet from my rear bumper, then swerved over and got beside me and rolled down his window. I look over, and see a cop in his uniform.

He was yelling at me to slow down, so I slowed down and then turned off into a Safeway parking lot to get some food. I got my food, already angry because the cop(who wasn't in his cop car) almost destroyed the front end of my car. I got my food, came outside, and found a different cop in his cop car right next to mine.

As I got into my car, he yelled at me to step out of the car, so I got out and stood there. He proceeded to lecture me and tell me he was going to write me a ticket for speeding and improper lane change and stuff, so I just told him "You can't legally do that...you didn't see it happen. You can't write the ticket for the other officer, who nearly caused me to get in a wreck." He then lectured me more, and I told him I'd just sit there all day and wait for him to leave, because I knew he'd write me up for every single thing on my car once I got on a public road. He finally left after telling me that I'd better watch out, so I got in my car and drove under the speed limit the entire way back to work. I didn't see any cops, so I didn't get pulled over, but I wouldn't be surprised if I get pulled over a couple times when I'm out tonight because of this.

It's not just this though...I'm pulled over at least three times a month, for the stupidest stuff. Not pulling into the closest lane, even though it merges 200 ft. after the intersection(even though every other car did it and always does...I was the one that was pulled over), going 33-34 in a 30, moving my car inside my lane to avoid the worst part of railroad tracks, etc. I routinely get asked if my car is stolen. Last weekend I was pulled over for 45 minutes while I got to do sobriety tests and blow into a breathalizer, all because my car didn't have a front bumper on it at the time. Less than a month ago I was pulled over for swerving into another lane to avoid getting hit by an old lady pulling out of a parking lot in a Lexus SUV.

It is absolutely ridiculous, and I am so sick of it. I didn't get pulled over once when my car was teal for over a year and a half. I haven't been pulled over once in my other Celica. I'm convinced that my bright yellow paint job is one of the main reasons why I'm pulled over. Not only does it attract attention even though I'm not driving fast or doing anything wrong, but I think cops look for my car because my friend's dad, who is the sargeant of the police force, absolutely hates my guts. I've been chased out of my friend's house with a taser, and I have a feeling that his dad tells the cops to pull me over. If my car were some color that doesn't stand out, they'd have a harder time doing this, and they wouldn't notice me as much in the first place.

So I'm seriously considering painting my car a different color. Maybe black or gunmetal silver or something that doesn't stand out. It's just not worth having my yellow car anymore...I can't drive it and enjoy it anymore. My car needs to be painted anyway, as my mechanic destroyed the whole paint job with his "snow acts like a car cover" theory. I have to get my front bumper and rear wing painted anyway too. So I'm maybe getting the car painted soon. What do you guys think?
