I had to ditch a state trooper on my ATV when I was a kid. He chased me for almost 3 miles before I shook him. He had total disregard for his squad car. Amazing. I hid the wheeler in the woods and hid out in the basement for the rest of the day.

Dirt bike - me too. Had a nice Yamaha IT400 in high school and college that caused me no end of trouble.



Blew through a speed trap one night coming home from work about 4 miles from my parents home. I ditched my usual route in favor of a mile long stretch of railroad tracks. I couldn't believe it but the crazy cop followed me. It was pretty dang funny seeing his headlights bobbing every time he hit a dip or a dirtpile. By the time I got back on blacktop and sprinted for the house, he was half a mile behind me. I had no way to kill my lights so I did a couple more zigzags before sliding home- literally, laying the bike down underneath a big old ponderosa pine. The cop rolled by pretty slow, but he didn't spot me. If he would have hit me with a light I would have been nailed for sure, but he didn't.



On the other hand, when I rode that same bike up a flight of stairs, right by the principals office, and for a lap around the inside of the high school for my senior prank, there was no place to hide. I had guys stationed at various exits to let me out a door if things started to go bad. Problem was, everybody emptied out of 3rd hour class to see the show and the halls were lined with cheering students. I had the vice principal chasing me on foot, screaming and swearing, so I didn't dare stop, but there was no access to the exits either so I kept going. It was a really dumb plan. Got stopped by a teacher, arrested and thrown in jail almost didn't graduate, 40 hours community service at the school, lost drivers license (reckless driving ticket - 8 points in Colorado). And NONE of those consequences compared to having to call my Dad at work and ask him to come get me out of jail. Worst phone call of my life...
 
i also have a story with a 71 duster. i had just finished building a 416 stroker motor for it. was out playing around and blew by a county cop at about 100 plus on a 45 mph road. well needless to say i barely saw him turn his lights on. had to slow down for the turn into my niehborhood by that time i saw him crest the hill had to have seen me turn in because these cars are not known for there handling skills. got home locked myself in the garage for about 2 hours until i could get one of my buddys to come by and see if there was a cop in the community. detatched garage so i was just in there with the lights off drinking beer stayin low. must not have gotten my plate # either. didn't take the car out in anything but an enclosed trailer for about 2 months.

This is OMG funny,, until the part about having to call your Dad,, Been there, wore the guilt!! But saying that it was a really dumb plan HAS to be the biggest understatement I have heard in a LONG time!!!
 
WOW! Who resurrected this old dusty post? Got lots of storys of doing what I wasn't suppose to do. Wasn't exactly a sparkling good boy. :-laf

Hey these are funny!I was on the way home one afternoon, riding my bike, Kawasaki Eliminator, long, low and heavy. There is one stretch of road with 3 or 4 whoopdis, if I power shift into 3rd and then 4th I could do wheelies off 2 of them. ( like at 60 and 80 mph) At the other end there was a curve, I was down to about 70 just short of the curve when the Sheriff's car came around the curve! Uh oh! I saw his brake lites come on as I went around, drop from 6th down to 3rd and go like heck. I went down to town, took the side road around and snuck out the other side, watching for flashing lights all the way. I never saw him again to know if he chased me or not, but I didn't take any chances. I went to visit mom for a couple of hours, snuck home and didn't take it out for the rest of the week.

I was driving south on 81 through sarycuse when a car passed me at the speed of sound. You know... where it's a bit twisty in s'cuse.

I was able to see him take an exit just down the road while the bubblegum machine was coming up behind me.

He was one lucky SOB, the cop didnt see a thing. :-laf
 
I had a 1956 Ford with a 390 Intercepter engine in it. I could pull the front end off the ground about a foot and that's what I did along with about 30 feet of rubber... ..... unfortunately there was a cop talking to someone on the sidewalk and his car was where I couldn't see it. I saw him point at me and say something, but I wasn't listening. I parked in the underground garage at a apartment house for a few hours. :-laf

On the north side just comin' in? When me and my buddies used to hang on the boulevard and street race we used to go thru there at an extremely high rate of speed, in, out and around traffic. Just cruzin, ya know? We were all not too bright back then, but we had a blast! The Action Racing Team, "We came, we saw, we cheated!" When my buddy lined up for a drag race he told me (starter) when I leave, drop your hands! :D

Then there was the night he wrapped a borrowed '69 camaro around the gaurd rail on 81 south :eek: The guy said "I'm going to a bagpipe competition, take my car out and make some money!" Ouch! :-laf
 
Be vewwy, vewwy qwiet, he's huntin' wabbits. Or he's just hiding. Myself, had to hide from a jealous husband one night. Caught me dropping her off at her car, wonder I didn't get caught b the cops, running from him. He was known to have a . 44mag.
