Good luck with this guy

God.. Whats your definition of winning the war? Kicking down the cops door with an uzi in your hands?

Around Appleton/Green Bay where I live I've never heard of emissions being an issue or cops being THAT ridiculous (although I do have a ticket for 'spinning in a parking lot' and was threatened with being arrested for doing so).

I got pulled over on HW11 in Racine (Next to Regency Mall), a block from where he pulled me over 3 years ago on the same road.

What part of WI are you from?

Haha thats exactly what I was picturing in my head.

I've decided to hack my old 2.5" Enthuza exhaust on it for inspection, as with some ugly wheels I have with plenty of tread. Definately putting a complaint in on this Sheriff, the more I think about his attitude the more I get pissed off, and I know that I am not the only one who he does this to. It is just plain harassment, in the end, whats the worst that will happen. I will get a butt load of non moving violations? Better than the buttload he gets every night :giggle:

DEFINATELY ordering an electric exhaust cutout in the next few weeks, and a more permenent exhaust..

Genious!

I wonder if that is possible. I am no where near that point yet, but how funny would it be to get a restraining order on a cop..

That'd be a neat trick honestly. I'm not real savvy on law, but I'd imagine it might be possible given the right judge.. :giggle: Freakin cops..

Ah, I'm not really familiar with Racine. I lived in downtown Milwaukee the last year (college) and my fiance's parents live in Menomonee Falls, so I'm a little bit familiar with the northern suburbs of Milwaukee but that's about it. I currently live about 10 miles from Appleton (Outagamie county) and no emissions testing is required here.

ApexOnYou 07-16-2008 02:31 AM

Yeah no emissions here anymore either. I have the car registered being "stored" up north though, since there was still emissions at the time that I registered it.

Just finished looking through every state regulation for motor vehicles. There are a TON of retarded regulations that I can't believe are even in the books.

messiahx 07-16-2008 12:59 PM

I'm tempted to read through the regulations myself now. What pisses me off more that stuff like that is that this state will go easy on drunk drivers but that a loud exhaust or shitty tires is worth an hour of their time that could be better spent getting the real hazards taken care of.

ApexOnYou 07-16-2008 01:39 PM

Heres the Wisconsin regs, the only two chapters that I found that apply to vehicles in this case.

Chapt. Trans. 305 (This is the specific stuff, exact specs and whatnot) http://www.legis.state.wi.us/rsb/cod...s/trans305.pdf

Chapt. 347 (More general regs that are defined further in TR305)
http://www.legis.state.wi.us/statutes/Stat0347.pdf

No shit? I used to live in Little Chute, then in Waukesha after that. I was in middle school at the time though so I have nothing to share about driving mishaps.

Arkmage 07-16-2008 02:20 PM

you'll have a hard time proving harassment if he's only pulled you over twice in 3 years. Even more so if the violations were valid and similar.

ApexOnYou 07-16-2008 04:19 PM

I am not reporting harassment, I just want to report his conduct and how he implied that I have no one to complain to anymore. I've spoken with a few people in the field of law, and they agree 100% on my side, so I figure I must be somewhat in the right :dunno:

Aww..my wife is begging for the set-up, but then I told her I'm not a fag.

Funny, I'm actually moving to Kaukauna this weekend, which should put me ~5mins from Little Chute. I keep hearing that Kaukauna smells awful because of the paper mills...I hope it's not too bad. You get any of the stench where you lived?

SamS 07-17-2008 05:25 PM

I'm from Hubertus, went to Germantown schools. Now I attend UW-Stout up in Menomonie and my parents will be moving to West Bend in the coming months. I've pretty much deserved it every time I've been pulled over, though I still refuse to put my front plate on.

mazdamitch333 07-17-2008 07:18 PM

hah wisconsin rules. im from west bend area. The cops in certain areas aka hwy 100 that end of town are total dicks. My cars brakes went out one that street coming back from a wedding dressed in full out suit, happened to be a friday night so the street was of course packed for thse who know the area. And an officer pulled up and was razzing the shit outta me asking if i was street racing where it was at blahb blah being a tough ass and must have thought I just dress up like im going to church every day.

ApexOnYou 07-17-2008 11:40 PM

Cops at HW100 are no joke
