pulled over for "blue headlights"
I had a HUGE lifted truck before I had the EVO, and I got pulled over for having blue headlights. I took it to the CHP office on Santa Clara in Santa Ana, CA, and the CHP officer actually told me that all the Benz's and Bimmer's that I see have the HID's as an aftermarket option. COPS ARE STUPID, they get no respect from me. If I failed at everything in my life, I think I'd be a cop. That's how pathetic they are. If anyone get's pissed because of what I said, no apologies from me (btw, my grandpa was LAPD, so don't lecture me).
If your not speeding like a maniac and you get pulled over for some other stupid reason like that. If you cop gets out and starts stomping a mud hole in your *** before you even get a chance to talk or make any lewd bodily suggestions ( the finger). After he is done (make sure you keep the "yes sir, no sir" going on your part)get his name, badge number, and police station that he belongs to and tell him that you are going to file a FORMAL complaint against him for conduct unbecomming of an officer of the law.
Also inform him that during the whole process of being pulled over that you in NO PART were disrespectfull to him. If he refuses to provide you with this information, most of it should be on the ticket if its legible. Get behind him and get the partrol car # off of his liscense plate. There is NO EXCUSE for an officer of the law to be as unprofessional as he was.
ALSO MAKE SURE THAT THE POLICE STATION GETS A COPY OF THE VIDEO TAPE OF YOU BEING PULLED OVER!! MOST OF THOSE CAMS HAVE A UNI-DIRECTIONAL MIC TO PIC UP THE CONVERSATION THAT IS TAKING PLACE!!

sano, i see in your profile that you are highway patrol. is that the same thing as a state trooper? the reason i ask is because as discussed earlier in this thread im a little confused as to what would be better. having your license ready for the officer or waiting till he asks for it. whats your opinion?

I never have any problems with the police. I think some of you must drive like *******s and get upset when you get pulled over.

With a few instances of people getting nagged about stock parts, I'm thinking about keeping my factory/dealer/MSRP sticker in my glove compartment.

Best thing to do is try to fight the ticket by going to court. If the trooper does not show up, then you win the case. Also, your ticket will have all the Officer's information on it such as his last name and I.D. number.
Unfortunately, I think he's got you for the front plate. All he has to say is he pulled you over for not having the front license plate. You could argue about the lights, but it won't work. He will just say that he asked you about them because he was investigating if they were aftermarket product.
Also, even if you could prove he pulled you over for the lights and say he ended up finding drugs in your car. Then the case would still be good against you because the officer was acting in good faith that your headlights were illegal.

That's what sux about the muffler law in NY. It does not give a dB level to shoot for, it only states
that you can't modify your exhaust to be louder than stock.
I don't think that's even possible for a Harley ...
P.S. In fariness, it does mention that motorcycles canot have straight pipes.
