What is with the hate of law enforcement? Are you really expecting state patrol officers to participate in drug raids or something? In this trooper's defense he was doing the right thing, more importantly doing his part to keep our highways safe. Unfortunately for us it was a case of "mistaken identity", if you will, which I got us all out of. He was ready to unleash the hounds on everyone else that drove away but guess what. He didn't. I was sensible and so was he. Leave it at that.

good thing no one got in trouble. I would have probably gotten a ticket if I was pulled over, I dont have the best record.

How was he supposed to get all of us? Dude in the Conquest was way ahead of you, you switched like 3 lanes and blew past a Semi, Mike blew past me, then here comes state patrol blowing past the semi all within like 20 seconds... I was thinking "uh oh. Hopefully he wasn't drinking..." I'm surprised the Conquest guy wasn't the one getting stopped.

I continued to 94 east (south) and in the northbound ("west") lane coming out of down town there were about 50 cops, a huge police truck/van type thing, maybe an ambulance, but I had a cop fly up behind me with lights on, then fly by going to that thing.

I'll incriminate myself, thank you! :p And there was no such switching of lanes, my lane just opened up, and I'm a pro at hacking traffic, even when it's a gaggle of evos.

Sorry, I just get tired of seeing groups of cops sitting at interchanges playing "traffic hero" instead of out looking for real problems. You have to realize that when you get pulled over for speeding, it's not about safety, it's not about upholding the law, it's about the state making bank. That's the way it's been for decades, and that's the way it'll stay. I'd honestly rather pay more money to the state via taxes than having to deal with fighting tickets to keep my insurance down.

I'm sure it could be argued that we were being "reckless" or "dangerous" but realistically I'd rather have someone go flying past me who's got racing experience as opposed to someone with no license or insurance who's only been driving for a year, and those're the people who always seem capable of keeping their sorry asses on the roads while we get picked on.

Yeah, when I was sitting in the car they were talking about a huge accident on the radio further ahead on 94, he was in a hurry to let me go and get to that accident because they had to control traffic.

I'm expecting your tone will change when you get older. Maybe you should move to California for a couple of years like someone else did because you can't handle the law keeping you down. ;)

Did you see what happens when you move to California though? I saw. I even stared a little, not gonna lie.

I don't really mind when cops nail you for speeding, when I get hit for going too fast, I just admit my fuck up and go on my way. Now, No front plate, dark tint, loud exhaust, etc. Those are the things that piss me off. Especially you guys in the cities that get nailed while your cars are parked outside and the owners are nowhere to be seen. That shouldn't even be legal.

Exactly. I don't see how they can give us tickets for loud exhaust when there are Harley's that are at least twice as loud as our cars are.
