"oh but they are in a different department".

That's fucking junk, if one department is flooded and the other is dead slow to the point that they spend their time chasing pennies out of wishing ponds, then those workers should be transferred over to the busier departments.

If Cain and his little cronies can apply all of this effort to pulling "illegal cars" off the road, how come when I had my car cracked into in an impark lot that had cameras plastered all over, and I had $5000 worth of gear stolen out of it, the VPD couldn't be bothered to even contact Impark or the building owner to get the camera footage?

I had to go to the owner of the building, explain the situation, and even then drive to the VPD to get a form, and then go back to the owner of the building and show him the paperwork in order for him to release me the footage. Then take that back to the VPD for them to essentially tell me, they dont have the time to even try and find the person or bother doing anything about it. There was even 3 license plate numbers in the videos, it had to have been 1 of those 3 cars, but the police refused to do anything.

So yeah traffic cop, transit cop, airport cop, horse riding cop, motorcycle cop, desk cop, cock cop, whatever you want to label them, a cop is a cop, and they should be able to prioritize resources better to benefit society, or they should chill the fuck out on the "we need more officers bullshit" all the time if they dont know how to manage resources and this is what they do with what they are given...

I don't want to do it anymore.

It is a genuine fear. No point owning a car you're scared to drive.

Yes, we do need a traffic unit, but I see cars that have non-working brake lights, driving at night without headlights on, non working turn signals etc.
I bet these few VPD cops that go after modified cars aren't even bothering to stop those people because their cars aren't modified.

I find that people who mod their cars generally take better care of their cars (mind you, this is just a generalization) so if they are doing it for road safety, they are barking up the wrong tree.
I do agree some cars definitely deserve VI's, but when we have reports from different people who are being told by those cops that ALL modifications are illegal, then that is a problem, cause that isn't true.

Of course, I can't prove or disprove this statement, but I do see at least one car driving at night without their headlights on every time I drive when it's dark out and I see cars like older Civics that have only 1 brake light working, so they must have been driving long enough for at least on cop to notice the brake lights not working.

1) "Flooded"? Its literally like 2-4 cops giving out these tickets/VIs

2) If you knew the building had cameras in the lot, why not take initiative and contact them yourself? The police isn't your mommy, they aren't going to hand feed you everything. Its why to rely on the public to also help them out. If you feel like they aren't doing enough, keep calling. Judging by your post, it looks like the video didn't show anything useful, as you don't even know which of the supposed three cars in the lot the thief used to get away despite seeing license plates #

3) Again, we need a traffic unit because too many of you drive like dickheads. I have a feeling you would be the type of person to make a complaint if a cop is on his phone while driving.

1. Every resource matters. 1 gang land shooting that could have been prevented by having those 2-4 officers on the situation is already too many.

2. Which is exactly what I did, but no it should be the police that do that. Typically people who own buildings aren't stupid and don't like to just divulge all the information about their security system to any person who just asks. Hence why I needed to get paperwork from the police to get the tape.

And yes the video showed exactly what they needed to find the person, unfortunately I can't request information for who owns a car with a particular license plate and their address. Only the police can do that. So yes the cops should have done something, but they are lazy and shitty.

3. I have a feeling your the type of person who phones the police when his neighbhor makes noise past 9pm.

What you're saying is that every car that wants to go into Vancouver proper must be completely stock, even though there are wheels out there that meet OEM standards, yet VPD is profiling people based on what wheels are on their cars.

If that's the case, then why the fuck does a site like Revscene even exist anymore?

RSX looks pretty stock.
Unless HKS exhaust is super loud. I'm not familiar with that set up.

Rear wheel gap doesn't even look like it's lowered. Maybe front is questionable, although realistically not an issue. Not even sure if it's actually tucked in the fender from that angle.

Hey RS,



I'm going through the VI thread again just because, and it occurred to me that the thought has never crossed my mind before:







In the above video from Tr1ll, he included a clip from someone else between 1:08 to 4:38. That someone else in the clip has to be Duke, right?

Some of the examples he gave me were Ferarri 458 and 488 for noise violations.
All were bone stock, and no Ferarri dealers in Vancouver to do the inspections so they ended up going to Canadian Tire.
The owners contacted him to tow the cars in an enclosed trailer to CT.

He said he towed a bunch of bone stock M4's for also noise violations.

The worst example was a first gen IS300 on steelies and snow tires.
Car was fully loaded with passengers and a roof mounted rack. Car was given a box 2 for being lowered and then the box 2 became a box 1 because the cop opened the hood and saw that the car had headers.

It would be nice if someone could get all the data from the VPD on how many box 1 and box 2 tickets they have handed out since August.
