Side note,I was just out in the PNW on vacation and got busted doing 80 in a 60 on I-5,about 15 miles south of Everett WA. Washington State Police are sneaky little bastards! Didn't even see him until he was in my rear view mirror. Lead foots,beware!

only 80?


and it is the end of the month.

I got a story about that road actually. if i can act like humfrz for a bit

Back in like. Oh I dunno i think it was 2015 I did the run from the Canadian border to Seattle in about 40 min in my Charger. it was kitted out with "hemi interceptor" decals and badging. It really was a fake transformer decepticon cause the lettering on the side said to "to pursue and enslave" and the hood was blacked out with "deception is reality"

I was getting some rims for my then tuner car 94 rx7. it came with these obnoxious chrome shits and someone in blaine had a set of oem rims. and I didnt feel like missing the late night ferry that heads over to bremerton. So I got froggy. and if thats one good thing about a big boat of a car with a hemi. "super cruising"
In some ways i miss the car but it was a R/T package without the nice brakes and kept warping them cause they are too small for the chassis. and I disliked the constant replacing of them ...

Yep, the WSP did an engine swap on that cruiser that patrols that piece of I-5 -

OK, good story, so far, but what is "the rest of the story"?

You need to come back and tell it in 40 years or so.


The forum connection may be a bit different but Hum will probably still be here.

Only times i've ever been pulled over for going over speed limit have been in a 2000 Corolla, 2001 Camry and in a 1990 Pickup. Out of those 3, only one ticket was issued. On the Corolla. I was late to church...


...ever since, i've been a secular being. EX DEE.

I got pulled over on FRS but that was bc the officer(s) had received a report that a 'newer sport Acura' was cutting people off and revving at people walking on street. Showed my camera recordings to Sheriff and was let go with a 'keep it speed limit son...oh and get rid of your window tints' warning.

Seeing this thread got me watching some Youtube videos of people getting pulled over and the shenanigans that happen by the ones pulling them over.
Turning off dash cams, blatant lying and false accusations(there's video running of the stop and all prior driver actions), having drug sniffing dogs perform false hits so they can search a car, etc.
It gets pretty infuriating to see what they try and in some cases get away with. Googling "improper police traffic stops" and taking it from there gets real crazy.
I've been pretty lucky in the FRS so far except one case where he tried to go all in on me with everything he had and then he gave up and left. All I can say is get a dash cam and
radar detector and keep it rolling at all times when in that vehicle. Police do some heroic stuff and we should appreciate them but out on the road, they are the enemy.

WOW You managed to go on YoutTube and find some videos of shady cops? That is truly amazing. Did you look for one of good cops? Do people that have good experiences post their videos? None of those bad ones could have been twisted to reflect things differently than they actually occurred? Do you only believe the ones that support your stand and reject the rest?
There are far far more bad divers than bad cops out here.

I totally deserved every ticket that I've received. My shit stinks just fine.

I totally deserved to get many, many tickets that I managed to still talk my way out of. My shit stinks but I guess I can convince cops it is perfume.

Got clocked in at 105mph cuz I'm trying to merge in without getting rear-ended. So much for a "slow car"... Too busy looking out for cars and not my speedo haha
