Got a ticket!

Hmm, do they have laws against having your car too low in VA? It sounds like the cop was trying to harass you about your car.

Anyways, most cops hate hearing about real people like yourself who actually served our country in the armed services. . . . . kinda like how doctors look down on nurses for not getting the PHD (good ol meet the parents!).

Its good that he let you off without much of a hassle though, thats what i wish coulda happened to me 2 years ago.

I was at a friends house and i had my little brother in the car with me - i was obviously not about to try and race around my car with family in it, and there is this dumb cop who comes out of the house across the street in full uniform (GET THIS) with a glass of lemonaid in his hand. He obvioulsy just got done socializing with the neighbors. His car was parked out front.

Then, He starts yelling at me about how my car is "illegal" and proceeds to write me a ticket on the premesis that even if i go to court and get off, then i will learn not to bring my "red honda" into a selective neighborhood like this one . . .
