I did a couple of years ago. It was a small-town cop who was way out in the country. He was waiting on me to go by so he could turn left onto the county road. In short order he was riding my tailgate fairly close and kept it there for a few miles. I was getting annoyed and figured I'd give him a good blip of 5x5 out of the stacks on the upcoming big hill(make it look somewhat accidental). By the time I reached the hill, he was still on my bumper, so I left him have a good dose. I figured he'd back off or pull me over. To my surprise, he got so close, I could barely see the top of his car through my rearview mirror. He kept it that way for about another mile and a half and then turned off as we entered the town he was working.



I'll take 10,lol

i was driving at night, and had a car get up on my ***, and i was doing about 60 in a 55, so i stepped on it and smoked him pretty good, sped up to about 70, then coasted back to 60... as soon as i got back to 60, i saw lights behind me... . so i pulled over, he asked why i sped up... i told him i don't like people tailgating me at night with all the deer in our area... didnt even ask about the smoke and just gave me a warning on the speed. it was a state highway patrol car also, not a local.
 
I hit one once does that count?



Was driving on the freeway in a light drizzle temp was in the mid thirties. Came up on a very long sweeping curving overpass. I could see a poilce car with its lights on way in the distance but who would have thought he was stopped in the middle of the road on the freeway. Came over the crest of the overpass saw where he was and hit the brakes. Had plenty of time to stop. Slid about 300 feet down the other side of the overpass right into the rear end of the cop. Overpass had iced up. I just barely bumped him, another 2 or 3 feet and I would have missed him. Got a ticket for recklessness. I tried to argue with the judge about his choice of parking spots but the cop said he hadnt realized the overpass had iced up otherwise he would have parked on the top of the hill instead. Judge said too bad 100 fine.

POLICE :eek: car??



10 points if marked car and on purpose (AND YOU WERE SOBER) -

5 points if unmarked... ...



I was running down Int 77 below Charlotte last year haulin bikes to Bikeweek, I had a guy in one of those low rider Chev's with the 20" wheels messing with me for a few miles. Well I just kept tapping the ole snooze control up, with him right on my tail, came around a long sweeping bend and there staring me head on was a super trooper with the radar gun :eek: , I glanced at the speedo and was just about triple digits, I kicked the snooze control off, he came flying up to the edge of the pavement. I figured I was busted so I backed down to 75, kept looking in the mirror but no trooper! I hit the CB and asked what was up with the bear and someone said he had the chev pulled over, asked what I was driving I said, can't say :-laf ! I guess he figured no way that CTD was going that fast with a trailer hooked up, so he took the chev as the culprit! Whew! That was close! How many points you giving with a trailer in tow ??? :-laf :-laf Oo. :-laf
 
Never smoked one, but I did pass an unmarked, in the right lane, doing 90!



Driving up I-25 in my truck, I see traffic around the bend stuck behind a car going 70-72. Yes the speed limit is 75, but no one does the speed limit. I get close up behind the car in the left hand lane, probably a couple hundred feet, 3 cars behind him.



The guy in the right hand lane slowly speeds up and passes the slowpoke. I get in the right hand lane and speed up, pass the guy at 90 and get back over in the left hand lane to get around the other guy. Uh oh, I see lights flashing in his grill, his headlights, etc. !



He pulls me over and asked if I knew what I just did. I said, "Yes but I didn't know you were a police officer until I passed you. " Which was true! He gave me the line about how much my insurance would go up for this ticket. I said yes and he let me go with a warning. Then before he left, and being the smart butt that I am, I asked him when the law about slower drivers having to use the right lane and left lane for passing only.



He said sometime within a couple months but for now I need to slow down. That was over a year ago.

i passed one one night at a 145mph, no it wasnt in my cummins but is was cool. i was on my ninja and passed 5 cars at 145 and he was in the middle, never even turned on his lights, seen him again after geting gas, then he thought he should try and get me, lucky his wouldnt go fast enough. sold the bike soon after, too dangerous for me. sorry its not a cummins story but its the highlight of my outlaw days. :D

It let two cops on motorcysles have some soot that had a lady pulled over on the side of the road. Never did get any reaction out of them.

A few years ago at Thunder in Muncie we were all caravaning from the campgrounds to the steak house and about 10 guys smoked out a cop at a stop sign BAD! lsfarm was the last one and you couldn't see the cop car after Greg took off :) . Noone got pulled over.
 
About a year ago I was coming home around 1:30AM and some young punk in a lifted Ford got me a bit worked up. I should have let him go but couldn't resist. I smashed the pedal from about 5 MPH up to the speed limit (40MPH). When I backed off, I saw blue and red lights come out of the cloud. The officer was really ticked off. He ranted for about 5 minutes straight about what happened. He was going to write me up for speeding(wasn't), squeeling tires(didn't) and polluting the environment. I had been to the emmissions testing center the day before and showed him my passing certificate. He didn't like that one bit. I was very polite, but he still gave me a ticket for reckless driving which could be as much as 8 points. I went to court to fight it as I had nothing to lose. The dropped it down to speeding which was 2 points. I figured it wasn't worth it to go further... ... ... ...
 
last week i smoged out a TN state boy, unmarked car . . on my way home for vacation... . i seen the lights on the dash and thought for sure i was going to see some disco lights in my rear view. to my suprise, he just waved, laughed, and kept on driving. i think i get bonus points for him waving! :-laf
 
I have, and I am a Trooper. Barry, you're not supposed to hit us ;) NPloysa, which stretch of of I25 and what color was the car? As Barry knows, I work Douglas and Arapahoe Counties. My unmarked is baby blue. Personally, I love seeing smoke and I love loud exhaust! :-laf
 
What about cops on bikes?



An unnamed TDR member was driving my Dad's '98 after a newly rebuilt transmission and obliterated a local cop on a police edition Harley with diesel dust.



We knew the guy... he thought it was kinda funny. We couldn't stop laughing for quite a while that day...

On edit: Another unnamed TDR member got pulled over one day while driving his truck. The usual cop/citizen exchange ensued: "Any idea why I pulled you over... "

John Doe: "No, I wasn't speeding... "

Officer: "The only time I could see your truck was between shifts!"

I posted this before:

"So I'm comin home late last night, windows up AC on two lane road, mindin my own bussiness, when this car flys up on my bumper. I mean really close, so I can barely see the thing anymore, He pulls out like little E breakin the draft at Daytona and trys to make the pass. So with David Alan Coe urging me on (You wanna race, name the place, and I'll show you where its at %$#$% $%^%^$) I wake up the old Cummins and quickly halt his passing progress and with the front of his vehicle quickly comin back into my mirror I start smilin a little victory smile. Not so fast, this guys not done yet, he goes for his secret weapon... ... little flashing blue lights, they really slow the old Cummins down. Like Kryptonite. Anyway I got that queasy I think I'm gonna be sick feelin in my stomach (and I ain't had no beer yet), and this guys shoots on by and disappears into the night.

Yee HAA.

The rest of my ride was very uneventful"

We were just past Greenland before the rest area, northbound. The car was maroon/burgundy and he said he was on his way to work in Castle Rock. So he must have been off duty at the time, he was wearing jeans and a button down shirt.
 
Ahh, I am guessing that was probably a Douglas County deputy. Our office doesn't have any red unmarked cars; DCSO does. Greenland is a great area. :)



Personally, I prefer to smoke out the little Honda's and Toyota's with those obnoxious exhaust tips, etc at intersections. :)
 
When I first found this thread it immediately took me back to an old post by Briar Hopper (Tom Meers) that I found harlious!! :-laf



Had to search for about 10-15 mins to find it but I think its worth it to share! Oo.

Unfortunately, I've had nearly the same thing happen to me. My back glass is heavily tinted, with company graphics on it. Driving home after a late night at the shop, there was a car riding my bumper for 6 miles, until we arrived at a crossroads with a sweeping right-hand turn & merge lane, he swung out to hammer past me on the left. Well, he hadn't been the first tailgater to try that (tailgaters drive me up the wall), so the race was on... . I dropped the hammer, steadily pulled away to 65mph, he swung in behind me and hit the blue lights. Oops... . it was a state trooper.

Luckily, he had another call he was on the way to, and he had a sense of humor, he was laughing the whole time. I got off with a warning and a laugh. He came to visit one day a few weeks ago, just to chat. He's interested in buying one of these trucks now... :D just in case he needs it to catch me, he said... :)
 
Completely smeared an unmarked behind me once.



Set the sceene:



Driving on a 2 lane highway guy in left lane doing EXACTLY 55MpH. I slip in behind him as the peggostick in front of me was whipping along at a nice crisp 40. I slip in behind 55 guy and wait till right hand 40 guy is clear. As soon as there is a gap in the right lane is good ... Wwwwwuuuuuggghhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..... guahhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. . wwwuhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Soot swill FLYIN! The guy behind me is tryin like hell to keep up so I feed into it more to about 90-ish and slip into the left lane again with him behind me catching up taboot! Not too hard as I was off the filth pedal.



I figure Oh punko the clown wants to play eh? He is right up my tailgate to where I can only see the roof line. Gwwwuahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa back up twards 80 ... 85 Blue lights seen thru soot :eek:



CRAP!



Yep Mr "I wanna try and hang with you" Couldn't take a joke and pulls me over :{ Unmarked Satey :( In a crown vic interceptor.



So I explain I am late as hell for a meeting in a place I have no idea where it is. I get a verbal tounge lashing of my life and was told to fix my windshield and get the engine checked out LOL!!!
