    valve stem fell...keeper question

    valve stem fell...keeper question

    It's not like he said, hey my drivers side miror fell off and we told him to duct tape it on. He said he lost his valve and asked if he had any ideas on how to retrieve it. No one mentioned duct tape at all, so I guess we should follow our intuition according to you. I don't se how we are...

    Cops pulled me over today..

    I know for a fact that a speeding ticket is 2 points here. I could be wrong but the exhaust ticket is 0 points, not 1. According to my insurance agent, the only violation others than a moving violation that gets you points, is if you have an invalid inspection sticker, and seatbelt tickets...

    Cops pulled me over today..

    I dont think the cop gave him the ehaust ticket because of his exhaust. I think he gave him the exaust ticket as in "listen, we both know you were speeding, and I gott a give you a ticket.
