When I was 17 I had a Corvette. One time I removed the entire exhaust from the mid-crossover pipe back (so it was manifolds into the precats, into the cat, then to the air). It was LOUD. I mean it was LOOOUUUDD.
Being 17, I thought it was awesome.
One time this lady pulled out in front of me. She came out of a sidestreet and I was going 40mph along a 35mph major road. There was no cars anywhere so it annoyed me that she pulled out in front of me. Rather than get on the brakes hard, I just crossed over the center line and passed her and honked.
I pulled into a shopping center about 2 miles down the road to get something. When I was leaving I saw the girlfriend of my friend. My car was so loud that *everyone* knew me by the sound. So I put it in neutral and revved the hell out of the motor. The girl stopped and waved.
That evening a cop comes to my house - says they got a complaint and threatens to write me a ticket. I ask from who? He says none of my business. He says I revved my engine in the lot and "tried to run her over". LOL - riight. He says he could haul me in right then and there. Being a 17 year old punk I tell him to go ahead, and I'll be able to find out who complained. He tells me to 'watch myself' and leaves (no ticket).
Poing being, they can bug you over people calling in. I imagine it only really matters if a trend develops though.
I doubt they have any info on who reported it, but if you're feeling frisky, call the PD and request it under FOIA (freedom of info act). They may tell you to file a FOIA form or they may just give you whats in your file.
