Bolas 5 #1 December 10, 2007 We all hear about the bad experiences with police officers, here is a good one. Powder Springs, GA On my way to The Farm Saturday night, I stopped and got food, beer, and some cash. I'd driven about 4 hours already and was getting close. I hopped back in the car in the bright parking lot and pulled back out onto the well lit streets. I passed the exit to the next shopping senter and saw a patrol car getting ready to exit and pulled out right behind me. I looked down to see my speed and noticed my lights were off. "Shit," I cursed as I flicked them on. The instant I did. He flicked on his lights. The blue spinny ones. The entrie side of the higway was curbs so I slowed down and was looking for a good place to stop. I saw a side street and it was curbs too but figured it was good enough. As he walked up to the car I said, "I'm so sorry. I just pulled out of the grocery store and with the bright lights of the store and the street, I didn't notice my lights were off." He said, "I saw you turn 'em on, once I was behind you." He asked for my license and asked if I lived around here. I told him I was just down for the weekend for a Christmas party/Memorial for a friend. He stepped back to his car for quite a bit. I really thought I was gonna get a ticket. I had the receipt I could show him, I could fight it and probably win, but it'd mean coming down to go to court or getting a lawyer. If I just paid it, insurance would probably go up. As all this is going through my head, he walks up to the car, hands me my license and says, "You be more careful now." All I could say was "Thanks." Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryoder 1,590 #6 December 11, 2007 I was about 17, driving home from a friends house in a town 6 miles away, just after sunset. I had two pressing problems: 1. My gas gauge was on "E". 2. My bladder was about to burst. Ran out of gas and coasted to a stop off to the side of a bridge 3 miles from town. Decided to solve problem #2 first. Stood behind the car, unzipped, just got a good powerful stream going and...a squad car pulled in behind my car.Damn! Frantically shoved everything back in my pants, unfortunately before getting it shutdown, pretty well soaking myself. Cop: "What were you doing back there?" Me: "Uh... taking a leak."Well, the cop was cool about it and even drove me to the nearest gas station to get a can of gas, then brought me back to my car.

huka551 0 #7 December 11, 2007 About 2 weeks ago, I had just got off a double shift, and the chick that was supposed to relieve me was like a half hour late...So i worked more like 17 hours straight, now I'm tired, I gotta get gas, I still have a good hour drive home and I gotta be up in 5 hours to go back into work! So I stop at the gas station and realize that $50 of the $60 I had to my name had fallen out of my pocket somewhere during the day! So I put my last $10 in the tank and hoped it would get me home. Now all I can think about is my bed, and the 4 hours of sleep I might be able to get if I hurry! And as I see the cop in the median and check my speed, he turns on his lights before I even get past him! When he approaches my car he asks me if I know what the state speed limit is? I say "yes sir", So he tells me it is 55 mph, and I was doing 80mph. He asked my why I felt the need to be going so fast, so I told him about work, and having to still drive an hour home and be back at work in a few hours. So he warned me about what a deer will do to a vehicle traveling at 80mph, and let me go! I was so grateful, no ticket, didn't get arrested (reckless endangerment). Well first thing in the moring, on my way back to work...hit a fucking deer! Only doin 35, but still...am now without a vehicle! So no ticket, but no car either! I think he jinxed me!

Snowwhite 0 #8 December 11, 2007 I have a crazy neighbor lady. She calls the city, the building inspectors, fire department and cops on me multiple times a week. Basically her goal in life is to make mine miserable, and because she can't keep a job, she has plenty of time to do it. One time a cop, and buddy of mine walks up my driveway and tells me that she has called because I supposedly am "having an affair". (See, she's NUTS!) Anyway, the cop spends some time talking to her, then to me, but before he leaves he says "hey, wanna mess with her?" and I said "sure, what do you have in mind" Anyway, he gave me a big, long hug, glanced at her yard and said to her "you have a nice day now, hear?"skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strop45 0 #10 December 12, 2007 Here's mine. I was travelling along a dual carriageway when I caught up with a very slow moving car. The car was wandering across the road on blind corners and the driver was drunk and/or high. On the first strait I timed him wandering one way and shot past. He then matched my speed. I sped up until I was well past the speed limit and quickly left him behind. I came around the corner and there was a policeman with the radar on. He turned his siren and lights on, so I stopped and ran back to his car. When the following car came past, I pointed him out and said yes, I was speeding, but that driver will kill someone soon. The policeman set of in pursuit after telling him to stop when he caught the car. I followed and pulled up behind them. He came back and said, thanks very much, I won't be needing you.
