Moropo Premium join:2002-07-28 Miami	Laws on spinning the tires? Lets say your in a stop and you floor the car all the way which makes your tires spin and all that noise etc but never actually make is past the speed limit (45 MPH most places), does a cop have a reason to stop you?

I've been pulled over here in CA for racing (burnout and all) but I stayed under the speed limit. There's probably some reckless endangerment law about burnouts.

sdgthy @optonline.net	reply to Moropo In NY there's one called "unsafe start". I'm sure most places have something that they can ticket you for.

Mac Bridger Late to the party Premium join:2001-01-11 West Newton, PA Reviews: ·Cricket Broadband ·Comcast	reply to Moropo It all depends on your state. Some places it will get you multiple fines. I know that you can be cited for "Excessive Vehicle Noise" as well as "Reckless Driving". The first is usually reserved for jalopies with no exhaust, but can usually be applied at the officer's discretion. -- One post kills threads dead.

Yep, and you don't even need to spin 'em for the ticket. Any loss of traction and even a short chirp can get you a ticket if the cop wants to write you for it.
