Was given a warning, told that Elements should not be this loud, and to fix my muffler and went on my way. Car was also lowered with obvious camber and tons of stickers.

My how times have changed...

Although perhaps this VI fest is only limited to non-RCMP?
I have my sources, at RCMP, and I did ask, what was happening with VI's in lower mainland, and was told, from their higher ups, each officer on shift was recommended/required to issue 1 VT and 1 VI EACH day, as part of their "quota"

(I don't know what a VT is, never really asked), but lets just say, they were hesitant in following those recommendations.

God bless the federal budget
