State vs aftermarket exhaust

[kpaske]

In WA it is illegal to enter the intersection if it is not clear all the way through, so that left turn where you wait for the light to turn yellow is actually illegal.

Alcohol laws vary from state to state. I remember being served in a restaurant in Tennessee when I was about 10 or 12. We were drinking wine that we brought ourselves (restaurants there could not sell alcohol, but could serve it if you brought it yourself). I got drunk as heck and fell out of my chair in front of everybody.

Knowing the law and following the law is more trivial than you think then. If signing a paper to get a permit to drive concludes that you KNOW the law, then nobody, including police, should have a permit. Laws change by the day, and as you can see by all the research I have been doing, it it NOT stated clearly for us to find. Makes you wonder just how many of the DMV manuals are actually up to date even.

I was just about to put an catback on my WRX, that is even approved by Subaru, but this whole ordeal is making me think twice.

And I agree, it is the responsibility to know the laws, but, if the administration is unable to provide literature, or a means for us to keep up to code, I do not think we can be held responsible.

Hey WG, I wouldn't sweat it. Go ahead with that catback. I think you just ran into the wrong cop on the wrong day. I say this because in 7 years I've been pulled over a few times in My 3000GT and once in my VX which both have 20% tint that you can barely see through and not a word was said about it. I've seen (and heard) many a ricer with cops in the same general area and have never seen them pulled over for it either.

As a youngster back in the mid seventies (18 was the legal drinking age) I was visiting friends in Montana. Much to my suprise, at closing time, if your drink wasn't finished, they gave you a to go cup & sent you on your merry way.
Another thing I noticed while traveling narrow, winding mountain roads on the same trip...there were no guard rails, just little white crosses where people (presumably to go cuppers) had gone over the edge & died.
