To disable the continuous seatbelt chime in a Subaru: 1. Turn the ignition to ON. The engine should be off. 2. Within 30 seconds, insert the buckle in and out 20 times. You can hold the release button down if you like. Just make sure to remove the buckle all the way so that it "registers" in and out. 3. The next time you start the engine, you'll get the initial seatbelt chime, but it won't giv

The OP is not breaking any laws. There is nothing wrong with running an ALPR system on your car, it just will not have access to the Virginia DMV database, so the OP is simply making their own database of police vehicles so they can play with their new toy / gadget. Sounds like a fun project. If you get it up and running, can you post a youtube video of your installation of it and and show it

That's how the current generation acts these days. A general attitude of aloofness and disinterest when they deal with those of another generation. The best way to interact with them is to talk a little slower and act a little bored and disinterested yourself. Don't make too much eye contact, and don't say things like please and thank you. Perhaps end the conversation with a quiet, drawn out

The warning means nothing unless the officer enters it into the Field Contact Database. If it's entered into the database, then the next time you get pulled over or questioned by police in the same jurisdiction as your previous warning, they will see the warning from your previous encounter with police. As far as insurance or DMV, they are not informed of the warning. The warning is a record t

Just take a look at the VA Safety Inspection check list before hand. You can check everything yourself if you have a few minutes before taking it to the station for the official inspection. http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Safety.shtm#InspectionProgram ETA: I wouldn't worry about the cosmetics of the car / body. All that matters is the safety, not the looks / paint job / body panel rust, etc.

I think the game trail camera is the best suggestion. You'll also need an SD card for the trail camera, a small padlock to lock the access panel door to prevent theft of the SD card containing the pictures, as well as a length of chain and another padlock to chain the trail camera to a tree or nearby fixed object so someone doesn't walk off with it. If you get one, make sure it has infrared as

Where do you go for local military surplus? I find Ranger Surplus to be too overpriced (IMHO). I used to shop at Annandale Surplus a long, long time ago. They're no longer around. What other places are in the area with reasonable prices? I know Dominion Arms has a small selection, what else is around?

You do know that you can simply approach an officer at the perimeter of a scene and ask what's going on, don't you? You may or may not get an answer. Otherwise, check the weekly crime report on Friday and see what's listed in that district.

Just drop a used condom in his cup and be done with it... Perhaps put a few nickels in the used condom to give it a little more weight.

Don't hurt yourself on the sidewalk in front of my house. Anyone that comes knockin on my door bitchin' a sissy fit about having slipped is going to do one of two things: 1) Get a beat down cause they couldn't run away due to their injury from falling. 2) Run away cause they weren't injured to begin with.

I'll never forget my last visit to Magruders. While at the deli counter I asked for 1/2 pound of White American cheese, the man behind the deli counter turned to his right and sneezed without covering his face or any part of it in any way. He then proceeded to slice the cheese I ordered, he still had on the plastic gloves from before the moment of his sneeeze. He finished slicing the cheese fr
