I spent 5 years restoring/modifying my 914. On the way TO the inspection station, I got stopped and ticketed for no inspection sticker.


I asked the cop "how am I supposed to get an inspection sticker if I can't drive the car to the inspection station?".


His answer... "You are not supposed to let it run out before you get it inspected."


My response.. "It was just recently registered after 5 years of restoration."


His reply.. "That doesn't matter."

The cop was just being a "male reproductive organ".

So I took it to court, with the inspection report in hand. the time stamp on the inspection report was 30 minutes after the ticket was written. The cop showed up, and the Judge (turns out he is a P-car owner also) threw out the ticket and lectured the cop on the term "reasonable explanation". Then he wanted to see pictures of my car.....
