well... I think I'm a better driver then most people, and that I won't go speeding around...

But I do know that I won't be a safe safe safe safe driver, going through corners with 1 mph.

i wish i could have done that with all my tickets too, but here we
just have the speed checking machines alongside the road (idk what
they are called in english), so no chance of talking me out of it.

So I'm at the stoplight on an expressway (speedlimit 45 mph). So I decide I'll just gun it and get home as fast as possible... yeah stupid mistake.

The car peels out for like 3 seconds, and then I just start hauling ass all the way till I climb speeds around 110ish, then I see the flashing cop lights behind my car... For some odd Farking reason, I decide to brake, and the cop almost hits me, swerving to the other lane to miss me..

So I pull over on the nearest street.. cop yells at me to turn off my ignition, get out of the car, hands behind my head, approach slowly towards him... So I'm in front of his car, turned around, he comes and start yelling his ass off at me, saying I almost hit him and wtf was I thinking going those speeds.

He then handcuffs me and starts to pat me down, and then goes and checks my car. After that, he puts me in the back of his police vehicle. He then runs my driver license and my car through to system for any previous tickets or stuff.

So then this Farking other DOUCHE BAG power trip cop pulls over. Cop lets me out of the vehicle, and I am being as polite and respectful as possible, because they can TOTALLY **** me over. So I addressed the other cop as sir and stuff, and he goes "Do NOT talk unless you are spoken to, you UNDERSTAND?" Then he tells the cop who pulled me over to impound my car and take me in for booking.. The other cop says he will and hes got this covered, so the other cop leaves.

So then cop starts talking to me about what I did and how it affects other people too. He then uncuffs me and apologizes if he was a little rough earlier, he was just kind of scared because I almost caused an accident with him.

So then he asks where I go to school I just graduated high school) and asks where I'm going to college and my future plans. I tell him I'm going to a JC then transferring to Cal Poly Tech.. we start talking about colleges and the area of cal poly, then talk about the dunes near there, then off roading, and some other very random stuff. I ended up talking to the guy on the curb for like 40 minutes, mostly about the Iraq war and politics...

So then finally he told me that he is going to let me off extremely easy, and that he NEVER wants me pulled over ever again.. I shake his hand, thank him like no other and then left.

He could of impounded my car, I could of gotten a felony and went to jail, extremely high speeding ticket, my license could of been taken away for at least a year, and my parents would of killed me. Yaaaa.... lucky.

Everyone says that. I said that too.

Once you get a car, especially if you get a somewhat fast car, you will speed.

I know I'm an idiot for going those speeds, but I just got so god damn lucky..

I hate it when people are mean to cops, I don't understand it. If you be polite to them, and understandable, they will lower the consequences or let you off with a warning... I got off with a very big warning..
