Nope, never.

Every time I have ever been pulled over, I received a ticket for what ever I got stopped for in the first place. Justice served.

Saying you got stopped for "nothing" is BS IMO. You attract their attention somehow (driving stupid, mods, whatever).

There was post on the first page about random checks that actually catch criminals. One of my best friends is an OPP in Paris. He recently stopped a car with very dark tinted plate covers. Turns out the driver and passengers were involved in a home invasion where the victim was stabbed. So a random stop for a plate cover caught 3 real criminals.

You do not think its JUST quite possible to get pulled over for nothing?
and just to note, the car I was driving was completely stock.

I was pulled over while basically stopped at a stop light. The OPP are doing a blitz on sport bike drivers because we like to run from the cops.

When I was in brampton on friday and saturday I saw atleast 7 bikes pulled over. 3 of which I saw get pulled over.. and they were stopped at a light.

Hey, if you don't mind sharing, I'd like to hear some of your stories?

After reading some of these stories and my friends experiences it seems like all honda drivers get hassled and pulled over randomly.

I have ONLY ever been pulled over twice in my life. One of them I was banging gears with another eg and the second time was when they were looking for a civic that had a drunk driver.

I got pulled over and got a ticket for having white turn signals on the rear. I went to 3 Honda dealerships and asked for turn signal bulbs for the 99-00 civic rear lights and all of their computers gave the same part number and it was a white bulb until someone at Markham Honda over heard what i was looking for and gave me the right one.
Thats the only ticket ive ever got other than parking tickets in 6yrs of driving.

[quote=chris_v2;125240]the reason why there doing it right now is because so many sport bikes are uninsured and there gonna keep up with it, my buddy got pulled over about a week ago but the cop was actually pretty cool about it and he was telling him there doing a blitz untill the end of fall so if you do own a bike expect to get pulled over whether your doing anything wrong or not

sports bikes have been the target ever since Bill 203. You think cars have it bad... bikes have it a lot worst.
I rarely ride in the city now. Im actually selling my last bike.
It's not worth it anymore

It is a shame man..

I think I'm going to be track only next year (thats if I can even afford it).

The good new is.. i went away for the long weekend, passed so many OPP's (not doing anything aggressive) and they never pulled me over. I was surprised actually. I think this weekend they were more focused on actual speeders, trailers and DUI's.

A buddy of mine always tells stories about being randomly pulled over. I've never had any trouble (yet?). I keep my beauty in 5th to keep her quiet and usually drive 10 over just to keep up with traffic (even then I'm usually the slowest car in traffic).

Although I was a passenger in the same buddy's car when he got pulled over once. We where going south on Mavis rd to take a look at my car that was parked overnight in the Crappy Tire parking lot. We where in the left turn lane to turn onto Central Parkway to go get a Timmies coffee, my buddy realized a cop was behind him.

He made sure he didn't do anything stupid as he turned and made his way into the parkling lot. The cop signaled him to pull over, then told him to park in a free space.

Apparently the cop got a blip on his radar detector and (of course) thought the civic had it. I know my buddy doesn't have one. The cop searched and searched (thought his PDA was it for a second).

Eventually frustrated and realizing he wasn't going to find anything, the cop went back to his crusier. Wasted another 15 minutes typing on his computer. Eventually comes back with an improper muffler ticket.

Now this is funny. I had a simular incident -- but at wonderland.

I have a T-Shirt that says "Please tell your ***** to stop starring at my eyes." ***** is written in big bold letters. Pretty much the first thing you would see.

Two security officers came up to me and told me to turn it inside out. I asked why of course. The explained that they didn't want to teach little kids those kind of words.
