He comes up to the window asks for my licence and asks me why I went through an orange light, I explained that it was too late for me to stop and I would have had to slam my brakes to stop. He then proceeded to ask me more questions. Who owns the vehicle, is it a prohibited vehicle, why are your tail lights tinted, do you work, do you go to school.
He then asked me to pop the bonnet and his partner was looking around the engine bay, they saw my UAS air box and told me "You're lucky that that's boxed in"
I played dumb about the tint and told him that's how the car came, he told me he would fine me for going through the orange light and give me a defect for the tint and that I would lose my licence for 3 months and went back to his car.
While he was in his car I pulled off the vinyl tint, he then came out after a few minutes and told me that he wont give me a defect anymore because I peeled them off and that he will let me off with a warning for the orange light.
I had my in car camera rolling the whole time, so even if they did fine me for the orange light, I could dispute it
, on the link road from F3 to Doyalson, just after exciting the F3. I thought I would give the FTO a bit of a squirt and next thing I know I had blue/red lights flashing in my mirrors. It was a Fedaral police officer with 3 gold stars on his shoulders.
