Have any of you been "followed" while...

[RT DAVE]

I was being tailgated once so bad that I couldn't see the guy's headlights so I floored it.  About two seconds later, the gumballs on the cop's dash came on, so I pulled over.   When the cop came to my window he wanted to know "what are you running from"?   I proceded to tell him that I wanted to get a better look at the guy behind me so I could get his license plate because tailgating is illegal.   He laughed and gave me a warning for an "exhibition of speed" or some BS like that.    Oops...

Me, my 73 year-old dad, and my 50 year-old brother-in-law were driving the General this summer when I noticed a car behind me following. I drove for about a mile, made a few turns and the car stayed with us. I pulled over and there were three high school girls following us. The girl driving was a fan of the Dukes and loved the car. She asked a couple of questions and then left screaming hysterically. Guess she had never been that close to a General replica.

My Charger looked like the Blade car for a year. The final movie even came out while it was done that way. The funny thing is nobody associated the car with Blade except for one guy. He said "They used a car like that in the vampire movie...uh whats it called?". Otherwise it was always General Lee referances. Funny how the model of car irregardless of color gets that from people.

Enough of the man stories.  Has anyone ever been followed by some hot chicks and what happened?

My friends and I got flashed by some HOT girls while driving in my old Caravan if that counts.

There was 4 of us and the back of the van was PACKED with music eqiupment (we were headed to San Diego to play a show). We were headed uphill and got flashed as they passed us. Out of all 4 of us, the one who would have wanted to see it the most missed it. 

I tried to catch up, but the overloaded van couldn't get them. I had it floored too.

Two stories! When I was 17, and living in S. Ca, I had a local Sheriff "following" heading out of town. At the last light before an empty 3 mile stretch of 55/60MPH two lane roads. He pulled beside me, rolled down the passenger side window of his SUV and started to talk to me about how he had a Charger like my 72 but he had a 68 (the   flag popped up on my head), He said it was fast and wanted to see is mine was as fast as his. I told him it only has a 318 with a 2.94 in the rear, but that did not make sense to him, and he still wanted me to floor it when the light turned green. I was stupid and did. He stayed beside me until about 90MPH then he waived to me to slow down to the speed limit. He turned at the next road, and he has not talked to me since.

Number two is for 69dcrtseV8.
I was convoying to and from an exorcise, in a 5-ton truck. Some of our other military member on the site could tell you that 400+ miles in a 5-ton or duce (2 1/2 ton), at 55 MPH is not the most entertaining thing in the world. No radio, no AC, but the 5-ton made up for it with a lot of road noise, and the scenery of Wyoming! On the way back to base we hit a lot of road construction. We where stopped at four sections of construction for 20-40 minutes apiece, and had to drive even slower through a few other construction sections. During one of the stops that we were forced to make. Two young collage students from Alabama got caught in the middle of our convoy, right in front of my truck. The two girls apparently wanted to show their “military appreciation”, so my buddy and I got a very nice flashing . OK, Wyoming did have some scenery ! We ended up talking to them for another 20 minutes before the road opened back up. Unfortunately they where going back to Alabama, and not to UT. I would have been happy to show them around

no good ones here.  I had a red mid 90s gm pickup follow me for about 3 miles across town once, but he quit and turned around before I got where I was going.  I had a black early 90s mercedes follow me home too  some middle-aged guy (with flamed seat covers) asking if I had any parts for sale.  I gave some lame excuse to get rid of him.

I got pulled over doing 110+ MPH in my Bright green 69 about 2 or 3 am. Normally I get a little nervous when the cops pull me over and especially when I know Im screwed. This night was different, I worked a 12 or 14 hour day and was in a foul mood at best. I really didnt give a rats ass what happened, and I was pretty much over it before I even stopped the car.

Anyway.... I pull over. The cop gets out of the car and from the way he was walking and and slam of the door I can tell hes pissed. He gets to my window and looks at me and says "YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW FAST YOU WHERE GOING?" I looked at him and said " I doint know sir... but I was going pretty f*&king fast!" He gets the blank look on his face, then a shocked look at what I had just said. He then grins with a smile and a chuckle and says "ok..... license and registration please" He takes my paperwork and goes back to the patrol car for what seems like forever. Finally he comes back to my car. And he says to me "Your record is clean, Im going to let you go." And then "you really need to slow down, your driving a bright green car, next time I will give you ticket" He than laughs again.  I thanked him like 90 times and he asked me some questions about the car. As he walked away he said "Nice car, have a nice night" 

I was SOOO lucky. Ive been pulled over a bunch in the charger and only got one ticket. That ticket was for some BS lane change at 4am from a bored noob cop.

Ive recieved 2 no seatbelt tickets in my brothers truck and 1 no left turn in my GF's BMW. In all 3 cases Im sure if I was driving the Charger they wouldnt have hassled me. It pays to drive a kickass car.

I have the cops follow me all the time in my black 68. It's got a good set of pipes and has a nice rumble but is only loud if you floor it. I had one sheriff a couple of weeks ago come flying up to about 3 feet off my bumper and stay there for about 5 miles on a deserted back road. He then backed off and pulled over. About 30 seconds later, he came flying up again like he was going to ram me and did the same thing. My friend was driving his 69 a while back and a cop kept cutting him off and wouldn't let him out of a parking lot. When my buddy got out to see what the cop wanted, he took off so my friend chased him to get his license number to complain to the chief of police. That's weird, a Charger chasing a cop car! My girlfriend asked me why the police hate Chargers so much. My only response was "Because these things were made for one thing baby, and that's breakin' the law!"

A couple of years ago I had a guy following me in my 68. He motioned me to pull over......I drove a few blocks and pulled over in a bank parking lot that was outin the open on a busy road.

He told me how much he loved my car and said he wanted to buy it. he offered a couple of low line second gen barracudas in trade and some cash. I toild him I needed $25K. He said he was interested and wanted to exchange info. I told him in the summer I hang out at the Covington Fred Meyer show on Friday nights, he could find me there if he was serious.....I never saw him again. I wa glad, I didn't really want to sell anyway.

I took the Charger to work one night just to give it some exercise. Coming home from the night shift there were pretty much only two cars on the interstate. Mine and the idiot two feet off my rear bumper. When I got off on an exit to drop a buddy at his house I got a look at my tailgater. It was a MD State Trooper. I'm glad I controlled the urge to stomp the pedal to get away from him. That's probably what he was trying to bait me to do.

I've been followed several times.  One of these instances I even ended up making good friends with a guy from Springfield, MO that was just passing through my hometown on his way to a family reunion.  He saw me driving around, and followed me until I pulled into a convenience store.  Got out, asked to take some pictures, and we talked for 1/2 hour.  About 2 years later I took the car down to Springfield to go to a car show with him.

Whenever I'm headed home though, I don't pull into my driveway/garage if there's someone following me - that's when I do the cruise-around-until-they-get-nervous routine.  That's only happened 2 or 3 times though.

Living in/around a small town has its advantages when it comes to the cops... they know me and the car, so the only time I've been given too much grief is when I first put my year-of-manufacture plates on.  A deputy sherriff didn't know I could legally register the car with those plates, and was looking forward to giving me some grief.  They were a little sheepish when I not only pulled out the registration, but also a copy of the state statute that set up the program a couple of years before.

Now for those of you with good memories, the first time you saw General Lee, he was chasing a police car.
