WATCH OUT members to Arcadia or Monrovia!, Mobile smog station!!

REPOSTED FROM ANOTHER FORUM

I just got back to the office and this is the first message I post.
Please be careful not to take Myrtle Ave from Longden to Huntington.
While I m driving to work this morning, I saw something flashing in front of me and I didn't know that its a mobile smog station.
There is a Mustang that looks fix up in front of me and I thought that I will be fine.
But the mustang is just moving forward and I got pulled over.
I m in a 2008 Camry and I don't know what the officer is thinking.
I think the chances of pulled over the Mustang will be better than pulled over a camry.
When the smog tech ask me what year it is, I said 2008 and he check my Vin then he just said you can go now without going to the smog test station.
So long story short, I heard that they have this in west covina a lot but its my first time to see that in Arcadia.
Lucky not in my s2k or mr2, if not, guess I will have a very sad day.

if you go the other way it's toward the Race track.
So this is setup toward the old town Monrovia?

I have been through one in marina del ray. The guy didn't have me pulled over. I was in my car which was lowered and and completely blacked out. I was very surprised. They must actually do a "random" car check
