Got owned by a judge. FKin' idiot UPDATE!
Couple months ago I got a tint ticket in my crew cab seirra for the BACK windows. I tried to tell the cop that it was legal to have any tint on the rear windows on trucks, but he still wrote the ticket. He tried to tell me that if it was factory or an SUV it would be legal. WTF?? FKin' idiot cop.
So I go online and look up the actual code. It states that a multipurpose passenger vehicle is only required to have less than 32% on the windows directly to the left or right of the driver. Then it defines a multipurpose passenger vehicle as a vehicle designed to carry 10 or less people that is built on a truck chassis or designed for off-road use. I WAS DRIVIN A GMC 1500HD CREW. Its a 3/4 ton truck!
So anyway, I went to court and plead not guilty so I had to go back and plead my case to the judge. I figured I would be in and out real fast. Nope.
After the officer shows the calibration on his machine the judge asked me why I wasn't guilty. So I told him that it was legal for trucks to have any darkness tint in the rear doors and back glass. He just looked at me puzzled, so I pulled a copy of the actual code out of my folder and read him the parts that pertained to me.
He then tells me that law was meant for vans. VANS!! I said that it plainly states ANYTHING ON A TRUCK CHASSIS. He said that it didn't say anything about "pickup" trucks. I was like WTF?? I couldnt believe this asshat. So I said, You're telling me that my 3/4 ton truck is not built on a truck chassis?? He said "yep, and I'm finding you guilty". Then he slaps an additional $50 charge on it for "court costs".
WTF??
Its not over though. I went ahead and paid the fine, but I have spoken with the DA, and the post commander of the state patrol that wrote me the ticket. If they don't do something about it I'll go higher. For the past 15 years I been harrassed because my rides and Im tired of it. This might be a small charge, but Im taking it as far as I need to.

At that moment I knew there was nothing else for me to say cause he was taking us in regardless. To add insult to injury, as we were in the back of the car headed to jail another Henrico officer at the county line came on the radio and said that the ricers just crossed into Clayton and out of our jurisdiction. I shouted, did you hear that. The cop didn't make a sound, he knew. When we got to booking, I had about $350 in cash and when they counted it they stated that I had $200. I said count it again, the guy did and got it right (pitiful). Then the arresting officer tells the tale of how me and the other guy were racing head to head at 92 & 96mph, but we claimed we weren't racing. Bullshit......and of course he wrote the ticket as all occurred in the 65mph speedzone. I was charged with 92mph and if it would of been documented correctly in the 70 my charge wouldn't of been a felony speeding. He played the hell out of his role. BTW, my second time in cuffs, first and last time arrested. First time in cuffs was after kicking ass in a club, since I was calm when the police arrived and none of the other guys could see straight enough to identify anyone, my crew and I skated. Well except for one who couldn't keep his mouth shut. Funny shiat........
Well atleast the judge allowed him to pick the day in which he wanted to start his jail time 
I fealt sorry for him, especially since Pops has had about 7 DUI's and only done enough jail time to sober up and only 2 are on his permanent record. He paid out the ass for legal rep each time though and is on a first name basis with AA 
DUI. Beware if you too drive a White/Tan F-350 Dually 
. Then he tells me that he had spoke with the judge that made the fucked up ruling and that the judge wants me to contact him monday to make this right. He said the judge was not "too proud" to admit he was wrong.
