    Moral of the story here....if Lilburn police come after you, just run. Endanger the lives of SEVERAL innocent people in an attempt to save your own ass. There's a better chance that you will outrun the cops than there is that you'll get out of some bullshit ticket.

    Mustangs have high insurance rates and you don't see them a top ten stolen list.

    The '89 Toyota Camry was the #1 stolen car in America for years and it's rates weren't really effected.

    My Integra is a 2001. I challenge you to find a list that has a 2000 or 2001 Acura Integra on it. 94-99 yes, 2000-01 no. OBD2b's have immobilizers but it's not like that really effects anything regarding stealing them lol!

    To the OP, sorry for going so off topic.


    SM:

    Do you work in the insurance field? Let's just say I don't anymore.
    It sounds like you know a little bit about the subject, so I won't go into the law of large numbers.

    The reason more 94-99 integra's were stolen compared to 00-01 is simple: there were more produced over that 6 YEAR SPAN than say the last two production years.

    You will find the top seller cars for any given period ranked very highly on the stolen cars list also. Why? Well it's simple - there aren't too many people hotrodding around in camrys (or SUV's this year) but those parts are easy to get rid of on ebay, craigslist, or just to anyone - because chances are a camry that needs a replacement parts is just around the corner with all the thousands of them sold.

    Mustangs don't have artifically high insurance rates, imo. They have had plenty of people wrecking them, etc. Not to mention there are so many mustangs driving around that a stolen one would be easy to take the motor and wheels, seats, etc out of and pawn off on another needy mustang owner.

    z32 cheaper to insure than a 1st gen integra? Not to nitpick, but what firm offered you better rates on a z32 over a 1st gen integra? You do know that was a very popular model - hence why there went on to be 2nd and 3rd gen here in the US?

    To speak of fags.

    A couple years back I was with two morons picking up metal for scrap yards. We took stuff behind our sheds and shops, asked shops if they wanted to clean up, etc. So we were driving down a dirt road and found some scrap metal laying in the mud on the side of the road, ok, so we took it.

    This is out in the MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, NOTHING around, idiot #1 I was with goes to a old ass abandoned shack in the woods and kicks the door open which was already open but used his foot. Note, mud, footprint on door.

    Well me and idiot #2 are in the car yelling like WTF lets go.

    Anyway we get to driving and a pickup flies on our ass flashing his high beams. We are like um ok, so stop. He says the metal is his...so we are like uhhh...ok then here take it back but we found it on the side of the road, he calmed down and laughed and said yeah I know you all can have it, I was just worried a friend said he saw yall around there and I wasn't sure if yall were going to light stuff on fire or doing something illegal, apparently lately around there kids had been burning down old shacks and stuff? He says he called the police, and we agree to wait for the cops as we have nothing to hide and talk to them.

    As we waited we talked to the guy he was real nice, laid back cool old man.

    Cops arrive (two at first) and they seem cool. They ask the story and the kids tell. I kept my mouth shut the whole time lol. I said we were bored, after school, looking for scrap metal. That's all I said really. They checked our records mine was clean, not even ONE traffic violation, other kid was already on probation for theft, and other kid was previously on probation....fuck I say to myself.

    So cops ask to search the car, it was not my car, one of the kids, he finds a UN LOADED, NO BULLETS, GUN LOCATED UNDER THE SPARE TIRE TRAY (EF Civic) 22 hunting rifle, REGISTERED to the kid, he gets it out, kid says it's his and it comes back clean, then the cop starts playing with it...ok?

    So the cops are talking, and then the door thing comes up, cops go and take a cell pic of the foot print, and match it to moron #1. Kid tells THREE stories about why his footprint is there before just saying he did it.

    Well the cops start seeming like we are going to go. Then the big fat ass piece of white trash SHIT Sheriff shows up, pulling up his pants, smoking a cig, hat on, you get the picture. The cops talk to the old man for a long time, and then they say ok gentleman hands on the car you're all under arrest for burglary. I was like.......FUCK?

    Well we get arrested and put to jail, we get burglary, committing a crime with a firearm, and theft by taking...that's TWO felonies.

    We get bail a little over twenty four hours later, at $6,000+...LOL.

    Court date comes, the courts offer is PRISON FOR 5 YEARS, county JAIL FOR 10 YEARS...15 YEARS TOTAL.....LMFAO...

    My lawyer fought and fought...and ALL it could get lowered to was 7 YEARS PROBATION...SEVEN...FOR PICKING UP FUCKING METAL ON THE ROAD AND BEING AROUND SOME IDIOTS.

    So with all of that, FUCK the system, FUCK the corrupt government, I am now working on a way to cancel this term. Ridiculous bull shit. That's all it is. Fucking inbred hicks get power in redneck towns and just try and steal any dime they can.

    That sucks!!

    Lawrenceville police is the same. I got a 19 over back in early 2008. It was on Lawrencevill-Suwanee Rd which is 45mph even though it is a 4 lane, divided highway. So I was going 64 in the 45. I ended up paying $325 for that ticket. My girlfriend just 2 weeks prior got one for 21mph over with Gwinnett County and paid $170.

    Been living in the downtown are of Atlanta since I moved here in '95. I have NEVER EVER seen someone get pulled over downtown. Sometimes there are road blocks, but I have seen maybe 2 of those. Anyhow, The other day, we saw 3 cars pulled over at 3 different intersections on Ponce and then another few on Moreland. All 3 of us in the car were like, WTF? They must need money

    Now they are adding 139? officers by Sept. Maybe it's a conspiracy to get the city more money. Hire more officers banking on more tickets????

    JK about that part.

    Both of which were committed by the people you were with, therefore, by you. Just having a gun in the car is enough to be charged. It is no different than armed robbery with a squirt gun that someone mistakes for a real one.

    Being around idiots typically gets people in trouble.

    I've been driving downtown since '97 or so and lived in midtown. I think I've seen maybe 2 cars pulled over total lol! Most likely they were left overs from a "fender bender" and not even traffic violations.

    One of my first times driving in downtown I had two people trying to tell me where to go and I blew through a red light right in front of APD. He pulled out and caught up with me and I told my buddy to grab a map and start looking at it...it was for the Nantahala National Forest and we're a block from the CNN center lol! A block or two later he turned off. They have better things to do.

    I used to slide 10 years ago downtown in my 300zx...everywhere! lol! Never once pulled over and did it in front of APD. If someone gets pulled over by atlanta police they're doing something seriously wrong and don't deserve a license.
