Default worst week ever.

Ive gotten 4 tickets in the past week. 1st- past curfew just got a ticket for tints gotta show up for court soon. 2 250 dollar parking tickets for tints ( chicago cops are retarded) 1 ticket today for doing 57 in a 40. cop took my lisence and i have to complete a 4 hour driving course in september dont have to pay though. I dont know if its because of the car being a cop magnet or what. I feel like a complete idiot.

p.s. sorry for posting in the wrong section wouldn't let me post in the off-topic

Yep. Those V6 Mustangs are cop magnets.
Remove your tint, so you don't have to pay the fines. Slow down. 57 in a 40 is retarded.
The fact that you feel like an idiot is a good thing, you broke the law.

Good luck in the future.

Ammonia is supposed to be really good for getting tint off your glass. Don't knock yourself out on the fumes though.

Cops must be douches for you guys down there. Best thing to do is donate to the local police department every so often and have a sticker on the car somewhere that says so.

My mother donates quite a bit so I have a sticker. I have limo on 3 of my windows and 15% on passenger and driver. Nothing has been said. It helps that my uncle and dad are cops also though.xD
