1978 Camaro? Street racing. 10 over? Street racing. Blew a stop sign? Street racing.
It's not about getting pulled over, it's how the new stunting laws take away all of your rights at the side of a road - right to a fair trial, right to legal counsel, etc.
It's a tired saying, but it's true: if you drive a certain type / make / model of car, you're going to be profiled, pigeon-holed and discriminated against. We've allowed it to progress this far, so we're all a little to blame for the current situation of things. Not much, but a little in and of the fact we've all sat on our collective hands and done nothing about it.
OTOH, we were out uhm... cruising last night in my bud's 06 STi. Damn, EWGs scare the s***e out of people! :lol: No speed limits or bunny rabbits were harmed during the course of our cruise. :rolleyes:
Steve-o, people seem to have forgotten how to drive correctly when it comes to emergency vehicles. If you can see it / see it and hear it, pull over. If you're passing one on the side of the road, give space and slow down considerably. And above all - don't chase them so you can look "official" and drive faster! I've seen that last one twice this week alone!
