Default Word to the wise and smarta$$e$

When a cop pulls you over for lighting them up and speeding off, don't respond with "i didn't know there were laws against accelaration" I ****** lucked out with a warning but only after saying i was just joking...and a simple sobriety test. Really i didn't mean any harm i just wanted to show the misses some grunt, so just be safe and always always check you mirrors.

HAHA...sounds like when I got a ticket...4 weeks after we got the wife's mach. I peeled out on blackstone and herndon because this ricer next to us was laughing and talking shiat...I had to put him in his place.....just next time shouldn't be RIGHT IN FRONT OF A COP.........Darn 5% tint at 9PM. He ticketed me and I told him exactly why I did it.....he smiled and said he couldnt' blame me, but he had to ticket me because of all the whitnesses (which was bs, how would they know)?

Well, I went to court to fight it. I was going to use the 'it's her car, not used to the clutch, I have a 65 mustang' excuse. I was the first one called up.....the officer never showed and told the judge prior to court, that he didn't remember the incident. I never thought I would be so happy to hear someone doesn't remember a mach 1.

don't even get me started on cops not showing up to court but, it was the first and only time i took the 180 up on my way to the coast, never again will go through firebaugh, i don't care how backed up the 99 and 152 ever get. Seems like the officer you ran into was cool as ****, nice that you got off so easily.

I found myself thinking the same thing.......but luckily I have not run into him again.

It's funny, eventhough my wife's car is loud as hell, the cops just look with 'cool car' look on their face. And Fresno cops aren't typically that way with loud 'fast' cars.

Well I was hauling a$$ down a long street not knowing a cop was parked on the side of the road taking a nap. Next thing u know there's a cop on the right side of me cussing at me and telling me to slow the f@#$ down. I was in shock and at the same time relieved cause I guess that was a warning.LOL! Stupid cop was upset cause I woke his lazy a$$! Classic!
