Interesting read this thread, seems to be thought thatwhen defected only envirtronmental isue carry fines, which i have to ask about!!
i have received 9 defects and 9 fines!! plus the added cost of getting a pink slip to remove the defect from rta records!! each fine was $74 and they included no front number plate, BOV, POD, stacker under seat, too low etc
oh and yes they do check the height of your car! i had the cop bring out a broom like thing that he showed me was 95mm and tried to move it around under my car, hit a couple of time so i got the defect!! Oh and yeah guages were also a defect i got too!
So if what was said earlier was true, then i should have only got fines for BOV and POD nothing else???????? maybe this is just another grey area that is up to cop discretion!!
only one i didn't get a fine for was one sent to me via the EPA to get exhaust noise tested, now this was put through by a cop when he pulled me over, and it checked out ok when i took it in, only by 1 Db though
any comments ?
oh and neons can look good
