Default Police Officers Got Me!!

So I was pulled over the other day for:

1. Blacked out head lights
2. Blacked out tail lights
3. Tinted front windows
4. No Front License plate (have it squeezed in on my dashboard)
5. Illegal Back License Plate (have a cover over it to prevent people from jacking my stickers & didn't even know it was illegal)

Soooo I got pulled over in Alameda County (Oakland) CA, does anybody have a good estimate of how hard I am going to get hit when the ticket comes in the mail???

Thanks

These all sound like "fix it" items, the fine should not be high. You just need to fix them, and show the vehicle again to the police dept.

lol the sad thing is that if you didnt have blacked out tails or headlights you probably would have been left alone.

I will probably end up just fixing the front & back plates portion of the ticket (25$ write off ea.) to knock the bill in half & just end up paying the bill for the tint for the lights & window straight up (which will HURT a lot)

oysgs430: You are correct, California is trying to steal their way out of state debt.....that's why they ***** regular people everyday for stuff like this. Makes ME PISSED!!!!

Damn yall got some strict laws in Cali, all that crap would not get a pull over mostly going over the speed limit and tint would get a cop to pull you over and I mean 5% tint that sucks, but the good side is you have sunny skies almost everyday!
