Ive never had a fine imposed..and am selective about where to go ..avoid conservation areas..state parks etc ..better to ask first than pay later..

Good luck and have a good time then they leave.....One time I had them called 3 times in 4 days.....at the same street tear out....by the same person..... Another street tear up I had the same person call 2 times in 1 week

I take it you have good luck on street tear outs?

Bob ALWAYS has good luck on tear-ups LOL.

I was with him at a tear-up a few years ago and a police cruiser pulls up. . . the officer says "Hey Bob any luck today?" After a 3-minute conversation the officer left.
