Based upon other reports of the events, it seems that the authorities were mostly handing out technical violations, like tinting, mufflers and front plates/euro plates, as opposed to speeding or any other "moving violations" . . . so if there was "browsing" by officers, it wasn't to appreciate the tuning! Clearly the message sent by their actions was "We don't want you back here . . ."
