I live around the corner from a city council person and two doors down from the 'ex' mayor.
They cited me for a perfect mint cond 500sel in the drive with an expired registration. They called it "a junk vehicle".
Needless to say they got a few letters from my lawyer.
Its all about who you piss off, what you know about folks.
Don't let it bother you.
BTW, my house is for sale. Gonna build a strawbale house on the ranch.
