You can get 3 points for bald / damaged tyre's can you not?
When I got pulled a few months ago, they diddn't check my tyre's and one was definately bald!

Changed one of my tyres straight away for sidewall cracks, much better than having a blowout IMO i thought any bright lights in a moving vehicle were illegal, E.g i didnt think you could have interior light on while driving?

you deserve to be pulled for having an led light on top of your parcel shelf.
the policeman was doing you a favour pulling you and then getting you to change the tyre

Do they always find somehting wrong? If they are doing it and not finding a problem then if its above 3-4 times i think by police from the same area you can claim harrassement or something?
Use to be in the same position as you they've stopped now they don't do me for anything

What colours are the lights?
Think you can only have red light emmited from the rear.

are you driving like a lemon/retard? if so, this could be your problem.
and get rid of led lights, they are tacky.
