Cool, now if the local LEO's find out about this, it's another citiation to go along with speeding and no front plates.

Well, thing is, if the passengers are too big, you can kill two birds with one stone. Just have them run along behind the car....loose weight and stay under the limit.

It funny, cause i think i am near or exceed that every time i have a passenger.. I weigh anywhere between 225-250 (offseason).. and my girl will weigh anywhere between 140-160 (offseason). We are both weightlifters and tend to be heavier than most.. So we are usually just about where the weight limit is. I don't even take the S when it is me and a friend. Cause between the two of us, we are around 500lbs+...

What is the downside to exceeding the weight limit? I'm always looking for an excuse to not drive my buddies around.
