What the heck, one more:
My friend and I were "run for the border" to Taco Bell one night in my '85 300ZX. There was a particular sweeping corner that I liked. No other cars were around so I was moving on what was then a backroad. I had no clue but a local cop driving a Bronco was headed in the other direction and, after the corner, did a u-turn to track me done (I swear I never saw the lights). Imagine the stopping distance and 0-60 times of a Bronco.
Anyway, about 3 miles away another cop was waiting for me with his cruiser parked in my lane (i.e. road block). To make matters worse (my hide) that officer was a Navy reserve buddy of my father's. No hiding that one from my parents. That was also the one that required my attending traffic school to reduce the points.
