just today second time for tail light said they r blacked out but all I did was paint over the reflective part of lens u can see the bulb and light up clear as day. Course I think this cop had it out for me second time same cop warning each time. Butthe reason for pullin me over today he did pull me over for speeding. Which I don't think is right cause I pass him same time every day same spot same speed for two months now and nothing he says u was goin 51 in a 35 but not even a 1/4 down the limit sign says 50. Srry for long post sort of vented.

I had the opportunity to donate $250 to the City of Chicago for my window tint.

I didn't get pulled over, though, a Meter Maid left me the ticket!

I got pulled over for doing a rolling stop at a stop sign the cop said he woulda ignored it if I didn't have so many lights on lol. But he was cool and only gave me a warning. I also got chewed out by an off duty Barney at a gas station for having my lights on. He walked up and said he was a cop, they were illegal, and he was going to call one of his buddies up there to write me a ticket. I told him they were legal (which they are in Arkansas if they aren't mounted higher than the grille) and to get off my truck cause he came up and started leaning on it all proud of himself. He wasn't to happy about being told off by a 17 year old. I'm usually really respectful of adults but his attitude severely pissed me off.

Got pulled over the first day I got the truck for window tint and exhaust, got a warning. Pulled over coming back last memorial day weekend fourwheeling for tint and exhaust, got a 15 day notice to correct and got an officer to sign off on it with only taking the side tint off. Pulled over the most recent time coming back from hunting, same place as the last one, for tint and hids (officer said my exhaust sounded good, so he didnt put that on the list) got a 15 day notice to correct. Been pretty lucky

Got warned for speeding doing 60 in 45, but ended up with a ticket from FDOT for blacked out headlights with no orange reflectors, Tinted tail lights where the reflectors were not visible from 50 ft away, then to top it all off my windows tint is 5% under the legal limit..

I didn't either. I was parked legally, too. Chicago proper has some strict ordinances, all aimed at making money of course. Your exhaust doesn't have to meet a dB meter, it has to be quieter than stock!
