Jesus... everyone once in a while the State Patrol re-affirms my belief that they can be complete douches.
On my normal way home I pass through the Mt. Baker tunnel on I-90 before entering the floating bridge Eastbound. I live on Mercer Island so I normally take the center span which has zero traffic.
I normally blast through the tunnel and carefully observe the speed limit exiting the tunnel and on the floating bridge.
Sure enough, the trooper was in the shoulder half-way across the bridge as I smuggly passed him in the far lane at the speed limit... and then blipped my throttle.
I watched him in the rearview as he juggled his speed gun and then came after me.
He said it was illegal to modify a stock exhaust and wrote me for a defective exhaust. $134. Mind you, in the realm of modified exhausts mine is NOT loud. Headers, 2 1/2" to a borla resonator and large maganaflow muffler.
I plan to challenge. Any experience out there?
