And went through the next set of lights then stopped at the one after as I had to turn right into my street. that's when I noticed a cop car pull up behind me two coppers inside checking the numberplate, as I turned left lights went on and they pulled me over, I quickley grabbed my radar detector off the window screen and stached it , then the copper came over and asked why I took off so fast back there , I said I didnt realise the speed I was doing as I was listening to the radio. He then asked if id been drinking I said no and passed the breatherlizer test, he then asked for my licence as I still had my NZ licence so I quickley grabbed it and passed it over to him. He asked how long ive been over here , I said 3 weeks then asked if im planning on living here so I said no just holidaying. He finially said well stop driving like an idiot and slow down, yeah no problem.I knew that he hadnt got my speed as the radar didnt go off and he mustve been a fair distance back also.Definitely a close call and slowed me down for a while.

John K Member 141 Member For: 16y 11m 24d Location: Sydney Posted 19/08/08 06:08 AM Share Posted 19/08/08 06:08 AM Had a few run ins with the cops over the years, but none as enjoyable as this one .....Around 20 years ago I was on a road trip across the US. I was driving a bigblock Dodge coupe that I bought for a pittance in Florida. It had a straight through dual exhaust system with just hot dogs on it. It was LOUD and had so much grunt and the shockies were so shot that the bonnet would lift about 8 inches when you nailed it. Then it would bounce up and down like a Super Stocker LOL!I was in Arizona minding my own business, just leaving Tombstone when I got pulled over by an Arizona State Troopers Mustang. He went over the car and told me it was too loud. Then he asked if I would submit to a vehicle search - I'd become a bit of a talking point, being with Florida plates, Alabama licence, Aussie passport, he said I pretty much had to submit. I wasn't really going anywhere so it wasn't a problem.He got on the radio and next thing another State Trooper Mustang shows up and they all start pulling my car to pieces. Then a third one arrives.I was more or less living in the car, so I had heaps of stuff and they pulled the seats, door trims, air filter, everything else off as well. It was all neatly stacked up by them in the gravel on the side of the road.After they finished their search, they all stayed and helped my put the car back together again. I even found some stuff I'd lost under the back seat. They were nice guys and were paying out on me driving a @#$%^ Chysler product.They moved their Mustangs so I could get a piccy of what were, according to them "real cars". They all posed in front of them.I ended up with just a defect for the exhaust (which they said I could ignore), a good story and a good photo (which must still be in my "old junk" box somewhere).

True story.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAFantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
