(38,334 posts)The Highway Patrol can pull you over and issue a "fix-it" ticket, but those are no big deal. You fix it the following weekend or two, you pay the small fee, and that's that.
I actually think it's part of a nefarious plot. If every older car has some minor issue like a broken taillight, a misaligned headlight, or a wobbly wheel, then the police have probable cause to stop anyone driving such a car.
It makes the DWB (Driving While Black) and Damn She's-So-Hot stops much easier.

(26,345 posts)The first several seasons drove me nuts. Really? You can't find better cars than an old Winnebago with bad hoses and a Suzuki Samarai with no windows?
Oh yeah, and guns too. This country has more guns than people. You had a hard time finding guns?
