I know in Ga you don't get tickets for loud exhausts... you get tickets for racing or as the police officer told me Exhibition driving which is the same as racing. Ohh and i didnt use a blinker for an emergency lane change so I got wreckless driving and I got arrested.
Cops in my opinion are extremely shady in some areas! At the time of that ticket I had an 07 s2000 fully built with a single 80mm exhaust at 129 db
it sounded like a freaking le mans car going down the road ohhhhh God did I love bridges/tunnels with the top down! Anyway just to give you another example I got a ticket for window tint by a cop going the opposite direction at 55mph...
I know exactly what % my tint is 20% I saw the label on the box when it was installed!!! The cops machine said I had 14-15% talk about corruption! First, there was no way he could tell my tint was below the legal limit @ 55mph going the opposite direction. (legal limit is 32% BTW) Secondly they calibrate their machines low so even if you do have legal limit you are guilty in their eyes and have to go to court anyway.
The bad part about all this is that no matter if your guilty or not you as a citizen lose... Follow me on this. If your guilty you get a ticket and have to go to court. If your innocent you may still get a ticket and you have to go to court. However, If your innocent and you prove yourself to be and the state is at fault. You do not get any recourse against the state for wasting your time and making you lose money... now thats some serious BullSh*t!!!! I think if the government wrongfully makes you go through the system they should be fined the amount they were going to fine you... but this can be a double edge sword. One your guilty no matter what or two they become honest for once and stop being F'ng tax collectors...
