1: Driving w/ expired registration
1: Driving w/ expired inspection
4: Speeding tickets
1: Passing on the right
1: Arrested for driving with suspended license

I've been pulled over at least 20 times total for various reasons. A few times it was for "loud exhaust" lol.

This just shows that you are a good two shoes Radio. :D
 
Wow... I lost count a long time ago... I think I'm at, at least 53. 5 tickets, 1 stuck. The rest I was able to get no same or similar for a year and it was off my record. The one that stuck was when I was running late for work, going north on 77 tagged going over the bridge doing a lot over :shrug:. I was lucky because if it would have been before the bridge I was going much faster. However those were all in my younger years. I haven't been pulled over in a long time, knock on wood.... well take that back I was pulled over going to SZ09, however the WI trooper let me off with a warning, and commented on my nice looking escort :laugh:
 
All my tickets were in Iowa so atleast they were cheap. the most expensive I got caught doing 84 in a 55 when I was 17. The trooper was nice enough to write it at 70. I would have lost my licence if he had writen the ticket for what he caught me at. At least he didnt catch me at the the 99+ that I was doing in the mystique a mile before.

FYI we (3LDuratec.com) are building and selling cold air kits for Contour/Cougars now. Kyle K. gave us his car for test fitting so we could get some pictures and work out the kit. Still working on getting a MAF adapter for cheap so we can keep costs down. Trying to sell it in the $160 range. It will utilize the stock accordion pipe or whatever pipe you have now. A MAF adapter goes onto the MAF and then 3" polished aluminum piping runs down through a hole you need to cut in under the distribution box to a K&N filter. If you are interested in one let me know we can install it for free and knock a few bux off plus do some Contour BSing while were at it.

If you are worried about driving through puddles add one of these to the kit: http://www.modified.com/tech/0104scc_aem_air_bypass_valve/index.html

Also these are designed for the 3L intakes and the 2.5L intakes. :)
 
I don't understand how you people get pulled over so much. I ALWAYS speed and I've been pulled over MAYBE four times in my life. I've only been in one accident that was ruled my fault but actually was the other persons. I've never gotten any tickets. Do you people just WAIT until cops are around? :shrug:

You are going to get nailed now. Just wait! I think some of us just have really bad luck.
 
Perfect - alternator died on the way home last night. Megafuse checked out, connections seem fine except the 16GA turn on wire, wiggled it with the car running and someone checking the battery with a volt meter, nothing. Threw a battery charger on the car and a spare battery and called it a night - this morning I took off with a spare battery and jumper cables, I didn't use the blower, stereo or lights and I made it through my 65 minute commute with 11.7V remaining on the battery when I pulled into work :)
