Got a ticket for no cats... So all of you running around catless my ticket was 172 dollars. if a cop asks if u have them, say yes, and if he asks to get under and look, ask for a court order. i just thought id share my experiences to help all of y'all.

I really don't think they need a court order to look under a car that is on the street.
Good luck with the ticket though.

That sucks man. I'm sure you were just driving normally and not making any noise when you got pulled over though right?

Easy solution is to tie a dead cat to your offroad y pipe. "but officer I do have a cat on my exhaust system.". The smell may be an issue though.

I would have played dumb and told him yes. I highly doubt he could've gotten far enough on the ground to see the exhaust under the car especially if the car is lowered.

i really was. i had just left my house. The police were coming to pay me a visit at home, and i just happened to be leaving, so he pulled me over. this whole ordeal started when a neighbor threatened to call the cops on me if i didnt quiet my car. (cammed catless lm1) so i said Fu*k em and didnt change a thing...

weld on the out side of a cat onto your pipe. it looks like there is one there without having to gut the cats.

and for anyone who has this problem, i honestly wouldnt even put cats on it. the prosecutor just took my word for it that i had a front plate and cats on my car. he didnt even send an officer outside to look at it
