Tricky darn police

[dkn1997]

  Short example:  Friday night high traffic area.  Early 90s fox body Mustang (trunk model) sliver is sitting at a light by himself except for his buddy behind him and a few car approaching the light. Light goes green and he nails it.  the tires go straight up in the air and the damn bumper nearly hits the ground.  it was F-ing beautiful !  but then the traffic that was in the area like mom and dad with the mini van full of kids, grandma and grampa goes to dinner ect are all looking at me like DO SOMETHING ! and I remeber the car I am driving says POLICE down the side.  I catch the kid and stop him.  Slicks, NOS, 4 link, roll cage, 500 something inchs of motor.....two other kids wedged in the back sitting on the mini tub humps with no damn seat belts.  Now, I had a car very similar to this kids .... just not a full drag car and it brought some good time to mind.  I had this lil shet and all his buddys doing push ups and singing stupid songs.  I made them run wind sprints in the parking lot and do jumping jacks ect. while thier buddy drove by honking and laughing.....along with hundreds of other people. I told him he was a dumbass for acting that that on the street with so many people around and to call someone with a trailor to come get his car and his dumbass.  I could have charged him and taken his license and cost hima  ton of money.  Even a trip to the jail.  That "lil bastard"  wokrs for the Police dept now and had to ride with me all last week.  I was right....he was a  good kid just acted stupid and got caught.

The night before high school graduation, three of us were in my buddy's 74 firebird formula. We had just put a 400 from a trans am in it and we were driving way to fast, getting the ass to kick out whenever we could.  at one point, we lost it and went into the canal.  When the cop showed up, the local lynch mob of senior citizens was out (we did them the courtesy of several full throttle passes through the neighborhood before we went into the drink)  There was even a town councilman there.  All were demanding that we be thrown in jail.  The cop was very cool.  He even let us try to let our buddy tow us out.  When our buddy towed the car smack into a boat and a dock, the cop still kept his cool, called a real tow truck and sent us on our way, no tickets, no arrest.  I think of the trouble we would have gotten into those years if we were not thinking about all of the cops partolling the area.

In Florida I have seen the cops sit on construction vehicals with the reflective vest acting like they are construction workers, instead they are holding radar guns? I kinda found it hilarious, ofcourse if I got a ticket I'd be pissed heh.
