If I am not wrong, in CA we sometimes have Smog Check points. Similar to DUI check points.

[iamsam]

I can't see why anyone would want to live in California.

isn't gas obscenely more expensive there as well?

Women and weather.

Everything else there sucks.

Yea I can't think of a single reason why 38 million people would want to live here.

Correct, CHP will occasionally set up a "Smog Check Point" I've heard it's mostly for data purposes though. There was recently one in a town over from me, I heard all about it on FB of course lol. We have check points for everything, Abalone is a HUGE one. Recreational fishers face a $500 fine for every abalone over their daily limit (3), commercial fishers face fines between $15,000-$40,000 and up to a year in jail.

lol, that's freaking hillarious. I can't believe people actually go out of their way to do this.

I'm not surprised by the smug prick that called it in, I'm surprised that they actually took action lol. I mean that's blatant "hear say"...which explains why no penalties came with the letter, but still. Let the officers do their job, we don't need Prius driving, Whole Foods shopping vigilantes.

My buddy's Cummings got sent to the referee for blowing smoke. He decided to go for a little test drive after some work got done (600hp/1100tq). Only problem was, he didn't see the motorcycle cop two cars behind him when he dusted the intersection haha.

A good snap shot of me getting smoked out.

So you would rather that a drunken piece of shit hits and probably injurs or kills somebody, flees the scene and does it again because you don't want to get pulled over and let off? Yeah it's a system that can be abused, but don't be fucking stupid.

calling in never works so fuck off. it takes too long for anything to happen.

This isn't always true. Last year on our way back from a concert, my wife and I were driving near this car that was swerving and drifting. My wife looked up the number for our local police station (we were 10 minutes from home), continued to follow the lady, and talked to the operator as they positioned the cop in the right place to pull them over.

Ive called it in and followed the crazy and in 3 mins I see the lights rushing up behind me like a crazy mad man. I had to take an exit before I could see if the car was pulled over or not, the car might have kept going with teh cop tailing em.

They might have responded so quick because i told them the car was cutting all lanes into the shoulder and at one point skimmed the median.

One can be ticketed in California for too much exhaust "smoke". Does ticketing happen often?

Don't forget about this:

What kind of a waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles would actually go out and do shit like that? I never understood the mentality of damaging the environment just to do it.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't build cars that intake more air and fuel and discharge more emissions because of it, that makes sense because we get enjoyment from driving the cars. What I'm failing to see is how ruining what someone else does for fun gets you any further ahead.

[ohthejosh]

I understand doing that to a prius because a prius is the devil on wheels but to people trying to enjoy a nice day? The fuck?

[702pjc]

Don't hate the Prius drivers. Most of them don't even care about the environment, they just like that healthy MPG they get.

we have a lot of potential, unfortunately there are a lot of leaches here that introduce new policies and regulations that extort the shit out of the established and well off.

I sure can't.

Liberals.

They are invading CO as well.
