Re: Car Racism?

I think it has to do with something else. If you are male, perhaps your young. Perhaps you got another young male friend. Also has to do with the area your in, neighborhood, also the city your in. Maybe those cars get stolen alot, perhaps they just want to scare ya see what you do. Maybe the cop is bored and he doesnt have no donuts or twinkies so he is hungry. Who knows.

Re: Car Racism?

I think it's just wrong that they give a ticket to a Civic because it has a loud fart can, but when they pull over a 67 camaro, they just drool all over it, and let the driver off with a warning for going 150 in a 70.

Re: Re: Car Racism?

Cops are so typical to go after a brighter or more expensive car. My Dad recently got pulled over for doing a 60 in a 55 when a mini copper S blew by doing 90+!. Needless to say he got it thrown out because he got the plates on the mini and told the cop off at court.

That'll happen because 9 out of 10 times the person driving the civic is like 16-19, is blaring something along the lines of NWA "Fuck the Police", and doesn't show the cops any respect. The person in the 67 Camaro is like a 50 year old guy, is extremely respectfull to the officers, and lets the cops sit in the driver's seat/maybe even take it for a spin. Peace-

Re: Car Racism?

^^there is that possibility. Or he was just a jerk.

I've had cops shine their lights at me for no reason while driving the opposite direction. At least then you have a warning that you should watch your rear view, that way when they turn around you can punch it and get away.
