While cops don't look specifically look for red cars, it naturally is more visible. So there is some truth to the fact that red cars get pulled over more. Case in point, my first car was red. I didn't have too much trouble in High School since my commute was short. But as soon as I got out and started making longer drives, I got 6 tickets in a year. I haven't owned a red car since. I think I got 2 in one year once, but other than that, it's maybe been 1 every 2 years or so. I do drive fast so I don't expect to have a clean record, but I haven't slowed much in my old(er) age.

Also consider that cops are indeed charged with making our communities safer. To do so, they will be more apt to target people who are more likely to be doing something else wrong. Young kids in general are pretty good targets. Modified cars add onto that quite a bit. Add to that the fat that 240sx's are getting to be more and more high profile in the street race/drifting scene, and you're making out to be a helluva target.

The best way to lower your chances of getting pulled over is not to give them a reason to. You assume a risk by speeding. I certainly don't expect that I'll live out the rest of my life not having a few more speeding tickets under my belt.

Damn Adrian that sucks. Well, if there were 3 cops all of you would have been pulled over. Since there was only one cop he pulled over the RED car since it's the most visible.

GOD I ****ING HATE COPS!!!!!!1

I used to get pulled over biweekly for no apparent reason when I was driving the old Z.

It's ok, the Z had enough power I could dust there asses all day long.

Random post. LOL. Made me laugh

[Graphfixz]

common now... you were in fact speeding. The fact that the truck was going faster is irrelevant.

pay your dues and get on with your life. I am certain that if you were going the speed limit in the first place you would have not gotten a ticket.

This is kind of like two people killing someone. “Officer, I only stabbed the guy 5 times. The other guy stabbed him 25! I am not as guilty as the other guy… why didn’t you catch him?”

Anyway….

There's so much drama in the the LBC...

u made my day man...

but if u were speeding u deserve a ticket end of story..

[Jesda]

If you want to drift, get a 240. If you want to speed, and I mean really speed, get a dark green Q45 with stock wheels. Helps to cover the back with GOP bumper stickers.

Are Whatchamacallit candy bars still being sold?

I'm not so sure about the whole "red cars are more visible" sentiment. I had a red sports car for 10 years and the only ticket I ever received was at night. Per a news report I saw last week, the most visible vehicles are gray (got me, I would not have expected gray)..

I'm sorry, that just made my night. haha.

And to whoever said it.........I am very apt to believe grey as the most visible color for sports cars.....My Z was grey and so is my 240. Think about it, there's so many red, white, black cars that a gunmettal grey one sticks out and also just looks more agressive for some reason. People always tell me my car looks fast, even when it's sitting in a parking lot. I get compliments all the time, even with paint fade.

[adrianfromthecastle]

So random, I was just talking about those things last night.

[L33TZOR]

well a cop doing his job is all good, but there are some writing for 5 over out there, and thats despicable, and that fact that you were called out for that ticket is too.

Note to self: watch closely for law enforcement vehicles while watching your speedometer go over the limits set by some DOT guy calling himself a traffic engineer.
