All you owners with Red cars...

do you think that you are ever singled out by the local constabulary for the color of your car?

That's why they call them "Arrest me Red". Actually only been stopped.....

once in almost four years, and it was my fault.

I feel I've been singled out simply for having the sports car and mine is grey

I'm thinking of going red for the next one.

Maybe------

Hadn't had a ticket in 15 years. Despite lots of extralegal activity with the (blue) TT. Bought that Big Red Tundra I use now for a daily driver and got written up for 64 mph on a rural county road the first month :-( .
The new Tundra makes a BIG radar echo.

No, I usually get singled out for breaking traffic laws:)

Never matters what color the car is; silver, black, red, I've been pulled over for speeding in all of them. I need to get the invisible paint like the aston in the james bond film.

Amulet here - and I get a lot looks from the Police but >>>

haven't been pulled over for a few years. Driving smart is the key. You can have fun but just be selective about the when/where.

It wasn't long after I had my 01 225 coupe I got pulled over for 15 over and given a warning because I had a clean record. Of course the Cop said "You know those stories about the police pulling over red sports cars? Well, they aren't true."

Right. Had to laugh.
