Re: Embarassed to be driving a Mits.....
Which is the point. I was just putting along, all legal and cool in the 35 construction zone when this guy starts trying to push through traffic (unsuccessfully). I never cut the guy off, never changed lanes to pass him. Never drove over the speed limit in the construction zone, etc.
The kicker of course is the unmarked cop who was always within 2-3 car lenghts of me. And it's not as if the cop was driving a minivan or something. It was a Crown Vic, plenty of antennas on the trunk and roof, red/blue led bars in the back window, searchlight mounted on the A pillar, perp-cage in the back seat. Racer Boy passed me and the cop a couple of times through thick traffic.
If I was egging Racer Boy on, do you think that the cop would have pulled the new-ish Eclipse over or the 8 year old stock Galant 4 cyl?
The guy bought his own ticket. I was just there as a witness.
