Freaking LUCK

So I'm on my way to a friends house last night. Sitting at a stop sign waiting to go left and get into light traffic. Up comes a silver Evo spooling his turbo up and down playing around. Don't know if it was a 9 or 10. So I, like a *******, hauled ass after it. Had to do about 15-20 over the limit, which was 45 to catch it. I finally catch it and sit next to it. Down shift into second, engage my tune and play with him. Finally get him to play back. There's no cars ahead of us for almost 1/4 of a mile.

We hit it and I start to pull on him. Shift into third, and he's right next to me. I start to pull and about the same time I hit redline we catch up to traffic.

lo and behold, a cop pulls up behind me with his lights on. I was doing almost a hundred in the now 40mph limit. Pull into the walmart parking lot, pull the brake and shut the car off. At this point I KNOW I'm totally fucked. Pull my license out, registration, insurance. Hand it to him. He goes. "you know why I pulled you over, sir?" I go "not really..."

"Two reasons. First, you were doing 15mph over the limit. And second, turning into this lot you ran the red light. I'll be riht back" Takes my stuff to his car to do his thing.

I'm thinking at this point "holy crap I should be SCREWED what with that race I just did..."

He comes back at this point. "Here's what's gonna happen Mr. Stoltman. I'm going to let you off with a warning. BECAUSE You're record is clean. This is the first time you've been pulled over speeding. But next time, you won't be so lucky."

There won't be a next time. **** me sideways, right? (btw, yes I know I'm slightly retarded)

Sounds like the cop that pulled me over back in December for going 60 something in a 45. YES, he literally said that. I was thinking to myself, good thing he didnt see me about 2 miles back when I was going 80 something. lol This was at like 12:30am and I was just about the only person on the road. He let me off with a warning and told me to "slow the **** down"

Sometimes if you don't give the cop any lip, they'll let you off easy.

Back in high school I was in the car with a friend, he caught up to another friend at a light, both were the first one in the lane, so you know what happened as the light changed to green. The other driver saw a cop in the parking lot before he actually broke the limit, but my friend didn't and we got pulled over.

Officer Friendly comes up and before he can say anything, my friend starts to apologize like his life depended on it, said that he did a really stupid thing by speeding and that it wouldn't happen again. I found out later that his life kind of did depend on it since another ticket would have given him enough points to lose his license. The cop went back to the car, radioed in, came back and handed my friend his license and said that since my friend admitted what he did and didn't try to give him grief, he'd let him off with a warning just this once, but he'd better not catch my friend again. And then right as he was leaving he says "Oh, and tell your buddy in the other car that he's lucky I'm in a good mood tonight because I could tell you were both drag-racing and could have busted all of you."

If it was me, the cop would have asked me to step out of the car and remove my pants so he could royally **** up my life......

You are lucky, go buy a lottery ticket ASAP

I think my heart was going faster than my engine. Seriously thought my ass was grass. I'm a big white boy, at 6'3" and live in a mostly hispanic state. Nothing like jail rape to keep the ass puckered up!
