man... cops everywhere now...

So these pass few weeks I've been pretty free so I've been spending more time driving but dammmmmm theres more cops pulling people over than ever before.......... I've memorized all the camp out spots that the cops around my area hide so I usually slow down, most of the time I go the speed limit anyway. One day a cop rode out of a camp spot and pull over 2 cars at once. Later that day I happened to be on the same road heading home and there he was again writing another ticket and there were two other cop cars camping at two other camp spots down the road.... wtf. I'm really getting the feeling that getting a v1 is justifiable now even though I go the speed limit most of the time. I'm just afraid cops will pull me over for some bs.....

V1 has saved my ass many times (including today). I think due to our budget in CA being what it is the po po has been writing up people for everything.

seriously, its almost creepy how much of them there is. It's weird when theyre in the city because they all seem to be around each other, i go from passing one cop to seeing another turning right in front of me to having another one behind me. Kinda annoying to be honest, cuz even if im going the speed limit and doing everything right, i still feel like im doing something wrong.

I guess increasing our registration fees and taxes is not enough. We have to write more tickets too.

Just drive 40MPH and you won't have an issue with getting rolled.

A cop in taiwan asked for my ID like 2 summers ago. All I did was I pretended to not understand and only spoke English to him and he left lol.

I think most of us, even if we're going speed limit, still have the danger of getting pulled over for no front license plate or tinted windows... i get nervous all the time when i see cops around me

these are my exact thoughts. though i am somewhat relieved that i took the tint off my front windows (got a ticket). hopefully i dont get a ticket for no front plate (knock on wood)
