Default News: Cars the Cops Love to Ticket

From the US News & World Report:

1) The HUMMER H2's daunting size might be what makes it the most ticketed car in America.

2) The Scion tC's zippy performance makes it another cop magnet.

3) The Scion xB is the third most ticketed car in America.

4) If you can afford a super-luxury Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG, you can probably afford a few traffic citations.

5) The CLS63 AMG is another luxury performance car, so it's no shocker to see its drivers among the most ticketed.

6) Subarus have a reputation of being yuppie grocery getters, but the Subaru Outback manages to prove that stereotype wrong by being one of the top ten most ticketed cars.

7) Audi often finds itself in the shadows of Mercedes and BMW, but not when it comes to getting tickets. The Audi A4 is the ninth most ticketed car in America.

8) The unlikely Toyota Matrix is the tenth most ticketed car in America.

I just don't know how a Beige 2000 Taurus didn't make that list.
