Ticketed for loud exhaust...that's not even my car.?
|
so the other day, i was looking a for a car online that was local in my area...so i called the person up to come take a look at the car and take it for a test drive. so i meet up with the guy and take a look at the car. which by the way the car is a 00' Honda civic Si, that is slightly modified with the simple basics (air intake, full exhaust, lowered, rims, yada..yada). so i test drive the car with the seller being with me, just making sure that the car runs smooth, and nothings is wrong with the car, and then i see blue and whites behind me and she pull me over... she comes up and does the standard protocol, and comes back and she gives me a ticket for a loud exhaust! i tell her that I'm test driving the car, and she didn't care, all she said was "i should be more cautious when looking at cars like these"...so i guess my question is, how can i fight this lame citation?

You can't - or to be more accurate, you could fight it but you would lose and end up with a bigger penalty. You were the one driving an un-roadworthy vehicle so it was you committed the offence - live with it. |

Okay...if you were speeding, who would get the ticket? The owner...NOT! Since you were behind the wheel and creating the noise...sorry, you are screwed. Now, in your defense, if there was a tail light out or something else illegal about the car having to do with the safe operation of the car, you couldn't get a ticket for it. The noise thing is a gray area. BTW, if you had the stereo up too loud in that car, you could have also gotten a citation for it....not the owner. |

Somebody has to pay the ticket. Fight with the owner. If you let it go past due, the cost will double. It's written to you, isn't it? You should take it to court, but be ready to have a lot of time wasted. |

First of all, this is ridiculous. She may have been messing with you and wants your money, because if she wasn't, then there must be a really good reason for citing a loud exhaust. |
