cruising down the turnpike one night(years back) found a black TA(4th gen) and we rolled together for a while, then the bitch threw a cigarette back while holding it out his window and over his roof and let go, it hit my hood and embers went up my windsheild, i was pissed! i dropped from 5th to 4th, went into the HOV lane and punched it, slammed into fifth and kept my foot to the floor, i walked away from him and like 10 other cars. i look in my rearveiw as i move one lane over and let off the gas and i see headlights coming, i start laughing like who they hell tried to keep up with me(at 115 i stopped checking my speed) then i see the silloette of the light bar on the roof of the car. i was like "****", before his lights came on i had already moved to the right lane, so he pulled me over. first i forgot on the turnpike they go to pass window, so hes waiting there finally i see him and hand my paperwork over(but i forgot to roll down the window) then when i do he asks me what that was all about...i respond exactly with "i'm a ****ing idiot" he agreed and i told him my temper caused me to take off becasue of the cigarette and all. he asked how fast i was going, and when i said i dont know, i was looking ahead, he goes "well at least u were watchign the road...you topped out at 127". He then asked if i had look behind me at any point on the turnpike liek befor ei did this, i said no. and he tells me he was the car directly behind me like 4 car lengths back for the past 2 miles. and he also tells me "at 90 i turned my camera on to get your plate cuz i didnt think id see you again." He tells me i could get upwards of 9 points right then, He asks about any points on my license and all and then goes to his car. comes back like 10 min later with 2 peices of paper, first he goes "i'm issuing a written warning for speeding", i was fine with that. then he goes "and this is a ticket for illegal use of the HOV lane, it was 5 min before 7 and you dont have anyone else in your car, its a $42 fine and no points" I was soooo happy right then.. i say thank you, and that i was sorry and have a good night. as he walks away he says "keep it slow, and nice car"
ive had other situations...4th gear smoking the tires past my town police station, warrants, suspected hit and run, speeding etc, but that story by far was the best, and after that i must say i did calm down a lot with my driving. i was young and stupid. |
Stupid things with cars or just me?????
Cause..... if it is just me.... we don't have enough bandwidth! |
Well I just got done swapping my intake manifold, and was ready to start the car, I got in, and started her up. but she didnt start, she cought fire.. I ran out of the garage into the house to the kitchen to get the fire extinguisher, yelling FIRE. :rofl: I jumped down ALL of the stairs and went throught my living room into the garage aimed and nothing(pulled the pin on the way out) then I throught the fire extinguisher across the garage, ran got the hose turned it on, and ran to the garage. I sprayed the water on the fire till it was out, then i realized It had the mirical grow thingy still attached:rofl:
All in all funny storry, could have been tons worse, In haled some smoke, and car still doesnt run, but at least I wasnt a pussy and ran away from it like 1 person...:rofl: |
If i had close calls i wouldnt be driving on a day to day basis waiting tfor the "you do not have a DL" letter.
No non ticket pull overs for me. But i did have the rear in the 67 blow up and lock up on Old Hook in Westwood right by the Getty if anyone knows the area. I was doing about 65. At the Sunoco now Valero the ass end started hoping and then spinning still goin 65. I spun all the way down to the hospital main entrance. Ironic kinda. Then called my buddies and we pushed the car 2 blocks to shop shop i work at. that was when i was 18. |
ive done a 540 on a 2 lane road in PA at about 100, inches away from a guard rail, was facing traffic for a while in 3rd gear but was moving backwards...and all just after walking a mustang...the longer story is here:
http://www.njfboa.org/forums/showthread.php?t=12687 i got pulled doing 86 in a 55...thankfully he was using vascar and timed me after i was on the brakes...i was doing about 115, saw the cop in the median...slammed the brakes, ass end came up hard (i was now going downhill)...i told him i thought i was doing 75 in a 65 and that my liscense was clean, in court i brought a driving record in, and he dropped it to 60 in a 55...no points in PA...2 points transferred to here anyway...lucky me... the worst so far is when my friends from school decided they wanted to make a video...so while 3 of us were at work, the 4th went out during the day and found an EB Games warehouse...scoped it for cameras and found none...we all went back there around 9-ish...good and dark. i happened to be the first one to go...opened the cutout (wtf was i thinking) and began my donuts...stopped after about 30 seconds. then a civic did a burnout, a 240 attempted donuts, and a 325is made lots and lots of smoke. 5 minutes total of being there and we decided to leave...i happened to be the last one out. the 240 and 325 both saw the cop and hit it getting onto a main road...the civic in front of me was oblivious to the cop, and waited at a stop sign for a good minute, allowing the cop to pull a u turn in the parking lot, and position himself behind me. I was ready to run (it was an intrepid cop car)...but the civic pulled out just as the lights went on. the cop asked me for my info...told me the more i cooperated the easier it would me. he then pulled me out of the car (and my buddy that was with me), went to search me...i reached into my pocket to show him my phone was in there (bad idea) and almost got shot. he then proceeded to tell me that they have cameras in back so i might as well tell the truth (i fibbed). then he said he had me for trespassing, wreckless/careless, street racing, and pretty much whatever else he wanted. another cop showed up, and they asked to search my car...i said go right ahead. they pulled my hammer out from next to the passenger seat and told me it was a concealed weapon. i told them it was for my starter...they thought i was bull****ting. later on the cop told me to give him info...i wouldnt turn in my friends, claimed i didnt know them...he then told me i have 10 days to get their liscense plates on his desk, or hes hitting me with everything. then my car didnt start when i was leaving...i ended up popping the hood and stuff, the cops began discussing how fast my car was and if it could take the one cops 4th gen! got the vehicle started and went home. called my dad, got yelled at, my dad was pissed at the way i was treated and wanted to get an attorney (he also said dont turn in your friends)...my dad and i both called the cop in about 10 days...he didnt answer, and we never heard from them again. and EB didnt have cameras. |
If its not getting caught at all then the only one i have besides the 67 spin was going 186 on 287 in a Porshe Carrera GT.
|

One of my closest.....
My brother and I decided to see what his 1990 454 SS truck could do against my Monte. So we go and race, and i notice at the end of the road a guy standing in the middle of the road. It was a cop directing traffic!!! We go by slow.....further down the road i see a cop with his lights on coming ahead of us. Flies past us than notices what cars we were and slams his brakes....the cop directing traffic radioed us in hahaha. I see him go into a parking lot and start whipping a U-Turn, i 2-way my brother and tell him to haul ass cause hes gonna chase us. Somehow we split up and both got away. But somehow all the speeding and crazy stuff i do, theres never been a cop around. *knock on wood* |
