Hope youre not talking about highway 9. That place is nothing but a breeding ground for norman pd, ohp, and the sheriffs office.

And street racing (participating in an illegal speed contest) is not an arrestable offense. I got nabbed for attempt to elude because the cop pulled over the car I was racing and never blue lighted me so I slowed to the speed limit and kept going. Of course that got dropped in court real quick but my bail was $2000 and I spent the night in county. Needless to say if I stop light race anymore it usually a quick sprint to 60 before letting off and if I see a cop I pull over before he even gets a chance to blue light me. Ive gotten let out of two racing tickets and recieved 1-10mph over (doesnt go on your record) tickets instead.

 

**** no dude. To speed in excess of 100 on highway 9 is retarded (seeing how the road itself is a pos). 235 WAY before Edmond and 44 are probably the best places to speed in the region. Never seen a cop on 44 in my 3 years.

 

A million years ago, back when I was young and foolish, I had my 1st hot rod (a 1973 GTO with a 455, cam, intake, and carb swap) and I was travelling up I-75 (north of Saginaw MI) at about 137 mph in a 55 zone (like I said, a million years ago).

I got pulled over, and the cop used three sylables to pronounce the word "boy". As in: "Booooyyyyaaahh! Do you realize that in the state of Michigan I can legally shoot you for doing eighty-five miles an hour OVER the limit!?!?!?!"

Not a good day.

 

No he can't.

 

Doesn't matter, that's what he said, and with that he had my complete and total attention.

 

Well yeah

 

I guess scare tactics do work sometimes, lol

It's not a good idea to post this info on a public forum, specially since a lot of cops are members here.

 

It's common knowledge. If they don't know that 235 and 44 are breeding grounds for street racing then they shouldn't be a cop.

Just sayin'

 

Lmao!

 

x2 on the track.

Yeah , and that's why police officers never wanna give breaks much. Because of the slap in the face that comes after when they have to go to court on their spare time to back a small charge like that. In the officer's mind, he may as well have just thrown the book at him then. You wanna play the game, ante up and don't whine when you get caught. Good story though, lucky break!

 

Lots of people like seeing what their car does after that 1/4 mile. I know for a fact at the track I've been beat by guys I know I would've smoked after that 1/4 mile. Always fun to go 150 in a safe environment.

 

Like I said, if you wanna play then just in case, be prepared to pay. Whether it's track fees, fines, lawsuits, or just fuel, your luck, your choice

 

found out the ticket is $157.50. less then running the damn stop sign ticket by 5 bucks, wtf is that lol oh well, i can do that. I'll just pay it and get it done with.

 

 

hahaha I get scared playing with Chargers for this reason.

 

Haha, at one time I worked for two different police departments. Once I was driving home, and was still in uniform and had some dude in a truck pull up to me at the green. He had his window all the way down and looked over, "hey you wanna run?" Deep inside, yeah I wanted to, but for obvious reasons I couldn't. I rolled down my passenger side window a little more (that's the side he was on), just enough to expose the crest on my uniform ( i was just and auxiliary officer at that time-but he didn't know that lol). He must have turned about 10 shades of red, and when the light turned green I took off. I could see him in my mirror still slinking across the intersection SLOWLY in his truck lmao. Yeah, sometimes things can be funny but there are rules on the road for a reason, some people can't drive their thumbs up their asses, for one. I personally think that the penalties are a little steep, I can say that since I'm not employed by either service anymore
