Hahaha that would be s great excuse! Lol

 

I'm going with a couple jeep guys too. Anyone's welcome to come but noone on here has said anything about going. 2 weeks ago was the last time I went and we picked up my buddies that had broken down at the subdivision and just waited with the security guard. When we got there, we got them and their stuff and headed back up the mountain. No problem at all with them.

 

I might actually feel bad about that......

 

That's right son! 4 banger for tha win!!! When their v6s are huffin and puffin and about to flatline on their death beds, our baby 4cyls will just be gettin up off the mat from stretching

 

So you will be going up the Cummings Cove side, right?

 

lol. not trying to say anything really. but does this one guy have a bad back ground with TWRA? i have meet 2 people that hated TWRA and did not want to be around them. and they both had been arrested for doing illegal stuff.


I kinda know some officers down around the chat area.

 

Ha, no issues with TWRA other than being allergic to tickets...good guy...mild mannered and all...we all even work for TVA, so clean records and all...but when he gets in his jeep, he always manages to push it just a leeetle to far, followed by a gasp from onlookers, followed by 'Oh sh*t Greg"...not that we all havent done it once or twice ourselves...it just always seems to happen to him everytime we go out. Driver induced...

 

haha. i know all the officers up this way. i see them at royal blue some. all ways stop and talk for a few. dad retired from them back in september after 35 years. i get the dam*** zach a lot. with the rhino.

 

Im slowly getting to know the Local Police officers and State Troopers around here myself...one ticket at a time!

 

hahaha. i know some around here. all from knowing others. lol. I have never had a ticket.

 

Im waiting to see the outcome of my latest addition to my truck. Like getting a ticket for having an obscured tag. We have speed cameras on one of the routes I frequent...and I hate having to always worry if Im going a little to fast and get a surprise in the mail a few days later with a nice pic of my truck and a $50 bill...so I took an old computer monitor cover...the ones that you can only see when you are looking a them dead on...cut it to the size of my license plate and put it over my plate. You can still see it perfectly directly behind me...but if you get off to either side or above...such as a speed camera high up on a post, its solid black.

 

yeah, i know how you fill. over in oak ridge they have red light and speed cameras. i hate them. i use cruise if i can. they will give a ticket if you 1mph over. or i know they use to.

 

Grab some coffee bud. Wake up and eyes on the road!

 

I'm home now yo! Sooooooooooo how's that tundra treatin u!?

 

No, I'm goin through whiteside (Aetna mountain rd)

 

My license plate cover for red light and speed cameras. Any guesses on how long before I get pulled over?

 

idk. hell idk if TN has a law saying you can’t have something over it.

why don’t you look it up and see. also post the info you find out.

 

Its clearly visible from directly behind and within a few degrees of center...but someone in the lane beside me cant see it. You can see Im only a couple feet off center and its totally black. Gotta love recycled computer monitor privacy screens.

 

Quote from a forum from 2005 forums.officers.com:
"Tinted covers are specifically illegal in Tennessee. Many people don't realize that anything that obstructs the license plate in any way (including clear ones) is a violation of the state law. They're great for a pretext stop. I've seen some guys get some good arrests because of those plates."
