Brooklyn Park's chargers are out right now. The black one likes sitting on Noble in between the elementary school and kellys bar and grill. BC and BP have random sorts of vehicles.

I got a speeding ticket from the silver/black stripes charger. Court date is February 19th because I plead not guilty.

I don't know if anyone knows this but lately it seems like the state troopers have cameras on their cars looking at license plates, processing numbers and pulling them over if anythings checks out wrong.

Seen in action and was glad all my parking tickets were paid...

Defensive driving. It was rush hour traffic here in Rochester on HWY 14, everyone was going about 62mph.. The highway turns into a 1 lane which alot of people don't know about (I have been cut off there before and have rolled my truck because people don't yield, just merge)

So I was slowly scooting by everyone because I didn't want to get cut off again, and this is my only possible route to take. I was going about 67mph, in a 55 zone. Last car I passed was the state patrol officer. He said "I was going approximately 65mph when you passed me." He didn't get a mph of how fast I was going, but I asked him why he was in the yielding lane and why he was speeding, and he said "Because I am above the law"

Sweet, officers are indeed assholes.

Haha Exactly! I remember the one from another state where they had, if i remember correctly a newer modified mustang and an undercover and broadcasted it on tv...POINTLESS

Not really though, because now every time you see a black charger you'll think it might be a cop!

The more cars that could potentially be cop cars, the more cars you have to drive cautiously around.

That's brand new. I was just talking to a cop at the auction(real cool guy btw, said he's never given a ticket for not having a front plate, nor do any of his buddies) and he mentioned they have a new sensor that reads license plates ALL OF THE TIME WHILE DRIVING and uploads them into the database. It immediately tells the cop if the driver has a warrant or any problems they could pull them over for. I guess my days of running cars to the auction with expired plates is all but done. :smile:

I must say, "FINALLY!!!" The tailgaters here drive me fucking insane. Seriously, when im driving 70 down the highway and the guy is on my ass and i have my son in the car, i get sooo pissed.

That will be day when people get pull over for tailgating in this state. This state does not enforce tail gating even if it is illegal. I seen people tail gate cops and troopers all the time in St. Paul and nothing happens.

As for undercover Chargers they been out for about 2 years now. I see them all the time by 694 and 494. If you pay attention to the car you will notice they have wider tires than stock chargers and sit lower too. Another thing that gives them away is that they are always the cleanest car (exterior wise) on the road even after a snow storm.:)
