So today, I went to umnitza, the service was actually really GREAT, thanks guys!:buttrock


But anyways, I was on 680 N , and I saw about 4-5 cops with radars ( thank god I have v1), I was wondering is this NORMAL? it's a wednesday.

There seemed to be no cops around san jose, but right when i hit fremont, it was cops galore, also on the way back.

cliffs:

everyone get a v1, it saved me from a bunch of tickets:redspot

Whats up Tony! What did you get done at Umnitza?

Pretty rare. I usually fly on 680.

EDIT: This is on my side of the hill. I don't venture to Fremont much.

680 up to fremont is always clear for me

i was going 70 in a 35 today, and a cop pulled me over. (it was a construction zone). and thank god he didnt gun me put he pulled, me over and hit me for my lights, no front licence plate, tinted windows (front, and windshield), and registration, and he said my car was illigally lowered???? but its all good cause i just sent the ticket done to so cal, to my dad cause he is a cop and he is going to sighn it off. hahaha

whats wrong with your lights? i got pulled today for the same shit today too..tint, tails, and license plate cover :mad

nothing was wrong with the lights, just wanted to go a new route, so went to umnitza, and he gave me a good deal on some :)

^ i think he was talkin to the other guy who got pulled over for his lights. I too am curious whats up with the lights

Funny I was playin all over the area for the last two weeks in our stang. Drove the 680 corridor twice, and did not see any unusual cop activity. The only place I saw crazy cop activity was hwy 1 from 156 interchange to Monterey. They had a car-mounted radar unit working at hwy level, and 4-5 motorcycle cops on the overpass ready to tag the radar hits. I observed this for two or three days in a row the week before Christmas.

That week I was driving a cosmos black on black 97 328 iS with no front plate, but no tint either, keeping up with traffic. Cops paid no attention to me. :buttrock

lucky mofo

I normally dont see as many cops sinc ei live in Fremont. Im always on 880/680.

I guess today, around 11 oclock was just a bad time for me to go out to have some fun driving then haha.

If you still have your old lights I may be interested. I'm going HID soon, just need to sell off some extra car parts laying around in storage for the money.

I just got some new Angel Eyes for my car that are 4500k ( same as my old ones) I put on some 3000k, but didn't like them, so i made a little exchange with umnitza:buttrock.

I have 2 HID bulbs, but i THINK one is messed up, i went ahead and bought some new HIDs for those though, and already installed th em.

i have prolumen hids, and they are so damn bright, anyway i had them on and he said the "eye peircing" ?????
Note; it was day time
i might have them aimed a lil high but not by much. but for some reason my hids are the brightest ive seen, can anyone with prolumen relate?

is there ever going to be a day when a cop in the bay area actually fights crime and not sit on his fat @ss eating donuts from the local krispy kream and waiting for a speeder to drive past him or pull someone over for a front licence plate ticket.. haha..

Fighting actual crime doesn't generate any revenue.

hey bro, i would have called you honestly, but I had work at 2, and I left at 11:45, I would then have gotten there around 12:30, then I would have needed to leave. And didn't want to be late for work, OR have to leave as soon as you got there.

I might make a little trip down to Umnitza in the near future.

On 880/680, I rarely see cops out with radar. They like to sneak up behind you and tail you for a bit.

Shouldn't be a problem for me anymore. My record is clean and its going to stay like that because of my new gears.

4k rpm in 5th gear @ 80mph. No cruising at 80 for me anymore.

I was going over the Altamont in my truck Weds., about 9am and while going down the hill (towards Tracy,doing 65) I noticed up in the air there was a plane flying around in the same pattern.
I thought then that it was the good 'ol CHP Plane, but you never know.
So I kept driving the speed limit and I came up on a Acura TL and all of the sudden he taps his breaks.
So I go around (still doing 65) and about a thousand yards up on my left, there was a Hwy Patrol back in behind this hill.
As I passed there were 2 more behind him.
As I went over the next hill, there were 3 more on the side of the road that had people pulled over, sure enough, it was that dreaded CHP Plane that NO radar detector will ever detect. :mad

Sooooooo, watch the sky too guys, especially on the Altamont, that's where I've seen them used before and was even nailed there myself MANY years ago in my THEN 240z.

Actually k-dog. V1 pics up the Ka band from the sky. It just fluctuates in position. On the way back up from Dubfest A helicopter was pacing us and the arrows on the v1 would shoot everywhere.

I don't know about that L, they use markers on the ground, or at least they used to. :dunno

Hmm, I was just there on wednesday, didn't see any excess cops.

I'll keep my eyes open tomorrow.

Helicopters shoot radar and laser.

Planes, that patrol, use the mile markers.

I know. :(

Or you could just not speed...

I don't see many cops on 680 but i saw them for the first time today on 580 before 238 hiding under an overpass with laser. and I saw a ton of cops up in fairfield near travis.

can he sign mine off too?

be on the lookout for tully road/capital expressway now a days. today 2 of my friends got pulled over for no reason and hoods popped. one got sent to state ref because the cop was a dumbass and doesn't know how to read carb stickers. he had carb stickers for the 2 items he modified on his car and the cop didn't know how to read it or match them up so he gave my friend a ticket anyways. another friend of mines got impounded for an engine swap. TULLY ROAD FTL.

saw a cop presenting himself "unmarked" on 580 near livermore today parked on perpendicular to one of the 580 freeways probably lasering cars. luckily my friend drove by at only 70mph so the cop didn't follow to ticket us. pretty dirty though, his lights were off and we only saw him because he pressed the brake pedal for some reason when we were driving towards him at about 300 feet away.

I don't get harassed much by police - must be the 2 baby seats in back :P

Man K-dizzle I miss you man how you been.


Well L, you never come chat on Bay Bimmerz, what gives bro?? ;)
I was at TI on Saturday, but saw no L?
I see you've been chillin' with ol Matty and his boosted Scion, but no love for the "old" man. :stickoutt

See ya sometime bro.
