Was cruising down the highway doing about 15 mph over the limit at 5 this morning when I had to pass a long line of trucks.
After I got past the 3rd truck this car comes up behind me like a tornado and rides my bumper with what looked like just a few inches to spare.
I look and my mirror and figure it is a full size sedan of some type and think "cop?".
Figure if it is a cop he already has me at 15 over and if I slow down he may just find out how small my back seat is so I stay at the same speed.
Get past the trucks and pull into left lane and the car shoots by.
Yes sir cop! Not just one but two as there is another cruiser behind him.
About 10 minutes later pull into a service center and park a little ways down from the cruisers.
Grab a coffee and come out and there are the two cops walking around looking at my car with a flashlight.
I walk up and they stop and come over.
One cop says "what colour is this?
I tell him it is orange (the halogen lights made it look gold) and is call Hot Lava.
The other cop turns to the first and says "told you"
They both then start going on about how great the car looks, ask how much and if I like it!
We chatted about 15 minutes and I gave them a salesman's card and went on my way.
This is now the third time I have had a "sweet ride bro" encounter with the police.
