what an ass only giving you a $25 ticket.

my registration was suspended without my knowledge of their being a problem. i tried to renew it and they told me about it being suspended. i usually have my friend ride me around but he blew up the motor in his audi so i figured i could make it on my own. WRONG.

but seriously what a dick.

I once got pulled over by a cop because as I drove by he smelled marijuana. Considering that the windows were rolled up, I've never even smoked a cigarette, much less weed, and that I was doing the speed limit 40mph when I passed him, I literally laughed in his face. I am always respectful to officers, but this time I just couldn't stop laughing, he got upset and wrote me a ticket for loud exhaust. I continued LOL'ing the as he walked back to his car.

This happened in 2000 I think.

that's gay. i hope you really were high for that. it'd suck to laugh that much about getting a ticket while not stoned.

So just wondering, I thought there is no helmet law for you guys. and if the bike was made for two there isnt a law saying you cant ride like that. is there? So why would he stop the guy, just to say that he shouldn't do that cause it's dangerous?

I also noticed that when I ride alone, the cops never even run my plates, but once I group up-there seems to be some attention.
Explain to me how you would know if a cop ran your plate.

I'm pretty sure that's sarcasim since you got off lightly.

Whymista, considering the mighter then thou attitude 50% of the Marines I came across while in the Air Force, that's about the same or more on average then cocky Police Officers. It's all in the perspective. I shouldn't have to remind you of that.

Nope...

Its only 37 that require juvies wear lids. (something like that anyway) Less for adults. I haven't lived in a state with a helmet law in over a decade.

Not sure if I want to hear this story, but go ahead. You do have to have 2 years with the full "M" endorsement before you can stop wearing the helmet in PA. It should be mandatory for everyone to wear one, but then I realize the ones who go 100mph with a bandana on their head, probably aren't the ones worth saving in the first place.
