it was impounded because 3 weeks ago on labor day weekend, a stupid pig pulled me over just because of suspesious license plate stickers, and now i can see why. my dad had lied to me. he had taken the stickers off our truck awhile ago and put them on our car, and then awhile after that he said he had registered it, but he didn't so now I am without a car. and I also have to go to court on November 18TH

that sucks. I guess if you didn't pay attention to the registration paper in your car you wouldn't have seen it was for a different vehicle. And if you were driving without registration in the car that should've thrown a flag up to ask for it in case you did get pulled over.

Man that sucks....Hope your dad will come with you to court, and explain what happened...maybe they'll lessen the fine at least.

in recent news, here in about a week my dad is getting me a 1997 Silver Pontiac Sunfire Sedan. it is powered by a 2.2L 120HP 4 cylinder, which gives 130 FT IB torque at 4000RPM. im actualy quite happy as the pontiac im getting comes with alot more standard features then my civic had, including, 4 wheel disc brakes, sport mcpherson suspension, and my most favorite the Tachometer ^_^
