exhaust law question
i was at the skatepark lastngiht and cops came because people were sneeaking in. if youre over 18 you dont need to wear a helmet so they didnt belive i was 18 so they kicked me out so iwas being a dick for getting kicked out. as soon as i pull out of the parkinglot they puull me over trying to say my tint is too dark, they check it and its legal.. he waits for awhile trying to find somehting to give me aticket for. they he pulls so bs saying you cant have aftermarket exhaust that it has to be stock.. which is bs you have a decibel limit i already double checked the laws on it som im gonna fight that crap... has anyone else heard of cops trying to say you have to have stock exhaust?
pwns.

Technically...
FS 316.293
Might want to look up your statutes before calling BS

lemme see if i got this straight, you got kicked outta the skatepark cause the cops thought you were under 18, you couldn't prove you were over 18, you were a dick to cops, cops pulled you over & wrote you a ticket? you ever think that maybe if you weren't a dick to the cops they wouldn't have pulled you over?
