If you get failed you have 30 days to correct the issue in VA. The parking lot issue was for expired inspections.

VA has some weird middle ground. If Big Jim fails me, I can take it to get fixed wherever I want and return to Big Jim to have it re-inspected for $1, or I can go to a different guy, lets say Little Mac, and have it inspected for $16 since I’m convinced Big Jim is lying. Well if it turns out he was, I get refunded my…

Always the answer, plus this one was “WOMAN OWNED”

My AKE system beeps at me like crazy if I leave the keys in the car, but since they usually just stay in my pocket it’s not an issue. This seems like a marketing ploy...

Use your cellphone to take pictures of everything BEFORE and as you take it apart, just in case you forget the order to put it back together after a few beers.

Well with that kid on the way in less than two months, and the looks ofmy bank account, I’d say whatever the next crack pipe is that shows up on Jalop

LOVE the train. Just too damned expensive, particularly if you’re just coming down from Philly.

HEH. Everything in DC is JUST BLOCKS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. It’s hysterical.

I second this notion.

Google search for the form letter to fight DC traffic cam tickets. Basic letter and the DC gov’t workers are so lazy they just dismiss the ticket rather than respond to the appeal.

<i>I recently had the opportunity to bring my Aston Martin to Washington, D.C. This involved spending two and a half hours on the interstate stuck behind people from Maryland going the speed limit in the left lane.</i> NOW YOU FEEL OUR PAIN. WORST DRIVERS IN THE NATION!!!

DUDE. Wish I knew you were in town....

It’d be 80 days in jail in VA. For every one mph above 90, you get one day in the clink. Plus the class 1 misdemeanor charge on your record.

That’s just emissions, doesn’t cover your safety inspection.

THIS. Just the other day I was behind a MD driver (no safety inspections in MD) whose balljoint or control arm FAILED on the GW pkwy at speed. Drivers front wheel goes perpendicular to the road, sparks flying etc. Guy’s lucky he didn’t injure himself or someone else.

Yup, and in VA far more revenue is generated from the speeding ticket than from the use of radar dector ticket.

It was primarily happening in Fairfax Co., which means this was 100% a revenue generating move. If I recall correctly it’s was like two or three cops who were going bonkers doing this every month.

This was primarily an issue in Fairfax Co., where the police for is one of the most overfunded in the country. FFCo. Police are DICKS, so much so that they had to change this law to stop them from abusing their citizenry. Most other county police forces were not pulling this shit... In 15 years, never had an issue in…

Those boards don’t work on water, unless you’ve got power!
