Heres a story for you. I cam home one night and some was throwing a party so I had to park mad far from my house. I was in the house for a while and had been drinking, I realized I left my smokes in the car so I ran out to get them. I noticed that I left my sunroof open so I started my car to close sun roof. There was a cop in the parking lot and pulled up on me and put the spot light on me. I closed the sun roof and got my smokes closed the car and he walks over to me and says you look like you have been drinking. Long story short I recieved a D.U.I in my parking lot for not driving. This was when I was living in Richton Park (a suburb of Chicago) Anyway, in IL when you refuse to blow the automaticly suspend your DL for 6months if you blow and pass you are fine, if you blow and fail you get suspended for 3months needless to say I blew it had been a few hours since I had a drink. The legal limt here is .008 I blew a.009 I got a D.U.I which cost me about 2000 plus 300 for a lawyer and they towed my damn car.
To this day I still can't believe it and my insurance went up 200 a year.

In oregon, the max tint you can have is 45%...THATS NOTHING. it will change the color of your window to look a little like pee, but it does NOTHING for tint.
and some cars just look a lot better with out a front license plate

Well this ones kinda funny....no ticket but still a good story.
Mike really had to **** and it was late so we didnt know any place nearby that had a bathroom, so i pull behind a restaurant that was closed and shut my lights off. Mike gets out and walks into the woods when all of a sudden i look behind me and there is a big spotlight on my car, im like wtf. Mike saw it so he immediately comes back to the car. The cops start thinking that were doing drugs or something, cuz they start asking all these questions. Long story short they just let us go. The catch is, mike didnt even get to go to the bathroom.
