So Saturday night my girlfriend and I go on a triple date with her brother and his girlfriend and our best friend and his girlfriend to Olive Garden. As we are waitign for our orders he pulls out an article from the Boston Herald. It says that Boston Police in the Hyde Park area will be arresting the operators of any lowered vehicle, fining them and towing there cars . It also statest that Hyde Park will have a "zero tollerance" for lowered vehicles. It also refferenced T3 Motorsports as doing a lot of the illegal modifications (lowering of cars) and the mechanics are not certified. Massachusetts state law says that you are allowed to lower or lift your vehicle 2 inches above or below factory standards, but most police officers can't tell the difference between lowered and or slammed, especially when a car has a body/lip kit. I just thought I'd post this for us Bostonians that live in or drive through the Hyde Park area.

 

That is pretty crazy! Sounds like bullsh!t to me...how does lowering a vehicle effect anything?

^I guess they are getting bored and trying to say that most of the lowered vehicles are tied into illegal street racing, but thats still no reason for them to opt of something of this measure.

 

wow thats sh!tty...mines lowered liek 1.5" all around and im sure they will think its liek 3-4" knowing them. thx for the headsup. more **** to worry about now.

 

Some of these cops are so dumb that they might tow your car thinking you are slammed just because you have a full body kit.

 

What about corvettes for example, they sure as **** are lower to the ground then our cars...so if we lower our car most likely it is still higher than a corvette...does that mean im going to get a ticket and the corvette(who is riding lower than me) is going to get away with no ticket?

-Sean

 

if your allowed 2" just keep proof of what springs you got and show how much it lowers your car and then tell them to go smoke the rope

 

that's just ridiculous... wth?

 

brookline gives tickets for lowered and modded exhausts already.
got a link to the article? what day was it published in the herald.

 

DAMM they buggin out... guess i gotta rock 22's to c if its high enough for them hahahahahaahaha

 

i call BS...unless you're driving an 89 hatch with a scraping exhaust, you'll be fine

 

^We'll see wanna put it to the test...lol

 

Cops are just jealous because they can't afford a modded car..and it's just people's hobby they like to mod their cars .. ...pigs....

 

yeeah, roll thru hyde park police station, pop a u turn and park across the street from them and get OWNED..... J/K

 

some of the cops drive modded cars/trucks too.
driving next to a slammed car, thats swirving left and right, trying to dodge pot holes, man hole covers and any imperfection on the road, is dam right dangerous . slammed cars cause traffic because they cant drive fast because of the bounceyness.
