Take solace in the fact that people who usually have their way paid for them end up dumb as fuck and behave like those posted in the video above.

172km/h in the middle of town, one handed, in a car that makes minimal noise. Seems like a bad recipe for pedestrians.

Social media had created a generation of brain dead morons... lets blatantly break a law, and film it for the world to see.

The quest for attention is mind boggling.

I feels your feels bro.

I'd say it all started with the Jackass stuff. Filming yourself doing stupid shit.

Riding a shopping cart off the roof of a house.
I mean who thinks eating a tide pod and snorting cinammon was a good idea.

It's all down hill from there.

Gotta do things for the Likes. Nothing else matters. Brb, retaking photos 100x times cause it needs to get max attention/likes. Our future generation is going to be messed up if not already.

Can confirm definitely the same douchebag

Buddy guy gonna get a hurt real bad from the VPD and his parents.

trollface 06-01-2021 05:17 PM

Damn, now i'm just jelly lol

I remember the first VI blitz happened when F&F was first released. Now these two douchebags are just gonna give VPD the justification to keep targeting cars for VI, even though those cars might be stock.

I remember when F&F came out, they were targeting modded cars cause "we mod the cars so we can race" which was stupid. Now they'll lump all modded cars into this racing category again and say they will amp up enforcement to get rid of 'racers' cause 'you wouldn't modify your car if you are not planning to race'.

I don't know about others, but when I modded my Civic, I didn't do it for racing. It was artistic expression and I took really good care of the car. I wasn't about to take it racing and risk damaging it.

Or he will get a stern talking to from the VPD with no consequences and his parents will buy him a present because they hurt his feelings.

How VICPD tests cars. A lot better than Vancouver.

That vic police officer is very fair, at least on camera.

Isn't BCHP all over the province?

68style 06-05-2021 09:43 AM

Wow look at that, despite ambient noise still being a problem (at least they're in a parking lot not on the side of the road) he's at least somewhat doing the test properly at an angle and 6-8 feet away.

All anyone is asking of VPD is that they be fair like this.

TouringTeg 06-07-2021 06:37 PM

I went to the voluntary noise test in Victoria with my ITR for kicks. They let everyone know ahead of time no tickets would be issued. You could find out if you would fail the test at idle and at 2-3k throttle. I easily passed but not at 7000 rpm 86 db.

At the end they said asked you to rev it where many cars are over the legal noise limit and you could get a ticket for excessive noise. They warned there was zero tolerance starting the next day. They openly said they had learned from the Vancouver VI mess and would not give out a VI unless they catch you a 3rd time. They will be giving out $109 excessive noise tickets and do not need to test your noise level. Officer discretion and subjective opinion.

Also they said that all police chiefs across BC have been asked to target loud exhausts.

Asked by who? And why?

Traum 06-07-2021 07:57 PM

Good to hear that VicPD is doing the right thing the right way. This is how good and successful policing is done.

I am 100% supportive of a police crack down on excessive noise. But when the rule says the max sound limit is 83 dB, I expect enforcement to only catch those who are exceeding the sound limit, not someone who has the capability to exceed the sound limit.

Why is this so difficult for the VPD to understand?

I doubt you'll ever get an answer to this. All you can do is accept and move forward.

Just sold my exhaust today.

Here is a video with small media interview with VicPD:

What does that have to do with VI’s

Harvey Specter 06-18-2021 10:58 PM

Lol so 7 VPD cops show up at VI inspection of a SV...


320icar 06-18-2021 11:30 PM

Great fucking use of tax payer money right there

BaoTurbo 06-19-2021 10:01 AM

Standing around in a circle jerk.

Can't imagine what the conversation between the cops and the service advisor was
