I always hop curbs 
If somebody is in the way of me turning right or something, I just get two wheels on the curb and pass them
Im really good at judging the space needed for my rig to pass by cars, so I usually just squeak by and give people a nice close look of my tires/armor hehe!

your gonna get eyeballed for driving a wheeler "PERIOD".. the more it becomes built the more your gonna get looked at...
Unfortunally, the public who don't understand there is people who are wheelers that are very respectful of the land and do their part to keep trails open..
All it takes is for people to start seeing 4wds, no matter how built doing that is illegal or stupid and they will relate all wheelers to "bad people"
It goes for both sides, there is respectful wheelers like mentioned above and there are the jackasses who i have to PICK UP THEIR trash EVERYTIME i go wheeling. These jerks don't realize they, and they alone are the reasons our trails are being closed, and being closed for good.

It wasn't really urban but there was a muddy ditch along a road we called burnout lane (wonder why) that kids had been wheelin and dug out for like three years. Then right after I got my license I went through it a few times (All the damage was done by a bunch of full sizes in the past) and like the third time I got stuck cause a crappy dakota got stuck in front of me and a township guy pulled up and flew by me cause every one ran off then I just went hammer down and she started to eat and I got out before he got back
about a week later we were doin it again (peer pressure sucks) and I had got through it and was pullin out that dakota again when a township lady drove by before I could get the rope loose and caught my plates then like a month later I got a call and had to talk to a cop about it, funny thing was this guy was tellin a bunch of bs like people would get killed from it cause it would wash out (didnt) and said if anyone did it again theyd be cuffed,
this guy was a complete dumb as that didnt even know what happened, didnt believe my friend with a 2wd little ranger that was with us wasnt wheelin and talked like they actually saw us wheelin which they didnt
Sry bout the long drawn out story but had to get it all down

Getting the wrong impression?
You've stated multiple times that you hop over curbs in spite of knowing its making you look bad..
And yes we are or have been teens at some point in time. Some of us use our heads more than others though.

people are making a huge deal about this. this isnt about driving over private property and stuff for the sake of being a rebel. its about hoping the curb to make a right on red when the person in front of you is going straight. or what happened to me the other day a city employee was parked with his hazards on in a turn lane that i make uturns at daily. so i hoped the median and did my uturn. what was i supposed to do? about a week ago i had to make a 3 point turn in a deep ditch because i made a wrong turn on a 2 lane street. these are the perks of driving something with ground clearance.

half of you guys are going to end up being that old man down the road who yells at kids when the ride their bikes past your house.

Another time I was pullin this Dakota out (we convinced this kid to do a lot of dumb stuff that my yota could handle) and I was pullin him out in reverse so I get him out of the hole and on flat ground, then I stop but he goes hammer down and slams his truck into a culvert with one wheel like 4 feet in the air
didnt break anything but we got a heck of a laugh about it
Haha its been like 6 month since then and this year had a bunch of big floods, and guess what...the ditches have already grown up in grass and not a bit of harm was done
