Don't speed! unless you

b) Have a radar and know the territory.

Default Are you serious? You actually did that once?

You actually ran from cops for 4 miles?!?? Man, you have more ***** than I do. The most I've ever done is get past the next bend and get the hell off the road before they made the U-turn (thanks to Mike Valentine for giving me the time to pull off the maneuver)....if they actually had me in sight I wouldn't even try. How'd you finally lose them?

Default It was very very late..

and I had a couple stretches of long sweeping turns with no lights or intersections that allowed me to get enough lead to do what you do, and what I've done a few times as well, get the hell off the main road and into some obscure confusing area only you know...

This was the scariest one ever. I didn't move my car from the garage for 2 days.

Default I also had no plates.

had I had plates I would have stopped.. although the closest he ever got was about 10 car-legths (when he turned his lights on). And I was in an area where at 2:00am the chances of there being anyone close to radio were slim to none. It was clean. I bet they had no idea what they were chasing. What I would have paid for a video of the inside of that cruser when I disapeared at 130mph in a WAGON!?

Default Heh...that's why I have to laugh at people who are so incredulous that I bought a wagon...

Most Americans just can't imagine it's fast, no matter what you tell them, so they're all the more shocked out of their wits when they see what it can do. I took two extremely skeptical co-workers out in it and scared the *crap* out of them.

Who needs the video - the radio conversation between cop and dispatcher would be hilarious enough! I bet his buddies kidded him about it for days.
