Default Police Problems

Ever since I bought this Car i noticed that I get followed a lot by the cops and get pulled over for stupid things. Anyone else having this problem??

I know i got pulled over a lot in my old car which was a Blazer but i was a new driver and i drove fast, i know i did. But with the stang I dont drie fast unless im on the highway. I get pulled over because my wheels didnt completely stop at school, which every other car did also. I thought i stopped but he didnt!!

Not sure if its because im 21 and im in a brand new Torch Red Mustang Conv.

Anyone else have anything to say???

It is a known fact that RED is an eye-catching color, that is why insurance companies tend to charge more for that color...now combined with a nice stang! VOILA! Cop-magnet!

Good answers but wrong!

a) Insurances do not charge more for reds. (at least they are not supposed to...)

b) 20/20 Did a bit on this and only 3% of stopped vehicles (police data) where red. BTW red comprises 36% of the car color population.

I drive a torch red 4.0 and so far good (almost a year 38k miles).

I would venture to say that it depends on the area....
