ok so its 10:00 at night on a monday and im driving on interstate 66 which is in virginia. Im probably in the worst mood of my life and im in the HOV lane going like 95 miles per hour in my 04 TL 6-speed and all the cars are moving out the HOV lane cause they see me coming intill.. i get to this one jackass in a Jeep (i think it was a cherokke, too dark to tell) and he decides not to move out of my way and im already pissed out of my mind as it is.. So i flash my high beams and move to the right of him to overtake him and bam!!!! his lights turn on... i hit the brakes and slow down to about 45 miles per hour and hes still ahead of me. im driving real slow and so that he would get real far ahead but he keeps driving slow too... i change lanes a couple of times and go all the way to the lane in the far right. hes driving slow and trying to let me pass and im just following him slow. by this point we were at a construction area and there was a exit on the right and he tryed to pull over before the exit and i did too and he noticed that he had no room and that he couldnt give me a ticket there.. so he saw that i followed and decided to take the exit, thinking that i would keep following him and at the last second i changed lanes when this mofo was in the exit and i got the F!!!!! out of there... btw im only 16 so i would have lost my car from my parents and my license from the cops.. i know im an idiot and i learned my lesson..

please leave your opinion about my story and share a story about your TL if you have one, thanks.

 

 

/thread.

 

Why dont mods ban these retards instead of the cool people on this forum?

 

yes

 

Sooo he was in front of you trying to pull you over?

 

yeah lol...

 

The only positive I can see coming from this is that you are 16 and can drive a straight shift

 

well i learned my lesson of not driving like a idiot, even when im really pissed..

i wanna thank god for giving me another chance.

 

 

damn punk teenagers...

Everyone under 25 should be limited to a car with 100 hp or less.

 

 

Heck, no one under 21 should even be allowed to own a TL. My first car was an Oldsmobile Alero which was a good starter car and I admit, I drove it like a bat out of hell. But I'm 29 now and I had to work/save to finally get my TL, which I deem my "grown up, working with a lil' sumthin sumthin" vehicle. Maybe some can relate, but when these kids do stupid stuff like this in nice cars, it just makes me wanna go at it with the hands, ya know. And save the "I learned my lesson" crap, ak because thanking God in one post but using "out smarted" in your title makes you look like a complete douche. If you're doing close to 100 in HOV, scaring people, don't have the knowledge to decipher a law enforcement vehicle from a regular passenger car (which isn't hard to do but comes with time), and then add insult to injury by flashing your highs at it........................I don't know how to finish this

 

Wait, wait...

You sure you don't drive a Civic?

 

Betcha can't do it again!

 

True for most part. Most teenagers are like that, but some are not (myself). I actually know how to drive, I do have the occasional "racer" feeling, but that is because some people don't know how to drive at all. For example, the speed limit is 70 MPH and some lady decides to talk on her phone and drive 50 MPH and block 1 lane out of 2. So I speed up and cut her. Problem with kids these days is the fact that they want to be above everyone else. They want to show off and think there "cool". One day I drive pass a Elementary school and down my friend's neighborhood. I see a 1-5th grader touching a girl's ass and calling her bitch and shit rolling on his skateboard. Kids are disrespectful these days, and sadly everytime I work or talk to someone they always tell me I'm more "respectful" and mature than most kids even though I'm just being respectful which everyone should be.

 

Wait .. u sure that's not a private patrol kind of SUV ? They got lights on them too ... LOL

Lesson learned & move on ...

 

Shoot, Champ, you live in Houston. By the time you hit Conroe sign coming down Hwy 59, everyone's doing 80 and up. Nothing but love for Houston.

I'm the same. I used to work at the casino which is mainly filled with people who barely finished high school and I'm working there just to make some cash til something better comes along. When you hit the ladies with the "Thank you's" and "Excuse me's".....................man, draws can drop pretty quick when a man has good manners and a head on his shoulders. Fortunately (or unfortunately depending how ya look at it), my mom and two older sisters "raised me right", so my conscience and morals didn't allow me to take advantage of even half the punan I was being offered.

 

That would explain why it didn't make any real effort to get him because when a cop wants to get ya, it's gonna get ya

 

good thread, will read again.

 

So you're 16 and go to high school in Fairfax driving a 2004TL with brembo calipers (6 MT) and post the experience here?

Shouldn't be too hard for a cop to find you if he wants to.....

 

Especially if he was lucky enough to get even part of a tag number.

Good thing the cop was there. You never know. By being there, he may just have saved the OP's and/or someone else's life and property. And it's my guess this took place in Prince William County a few miles west of Manassas.

 

We can all probably relate really dumb things we've done in our past.. I know I can. When I had my '66 L34 396 Chevelle, I used to street race frequently. Most of the time, I was pretty darned careful about where I raced and under what conditions (traffic, weather, etc.). But one Sunday night, some guy wanted to get it on in Annandale, VA. So we headed out to route 66 off of 236. We waited for traffic to clear before we lined up and launched. We would run and then back off and turn off at Gallows Road (7/10ths of a mile from 236).

We made two runs and I beat him both times. When we went back to the drive-in (restaurant not a theater), he wanted to go again.. he was sure he could beat me. I told him I was not going to go faster than 80 MPH since the traffic was heavier than I liked. So out we went and off we went. At 80, I let off but he stayed in it and I told the two guys with me that he was going to say he beat me. So I nailed it again and didn't back off until I hit 132 MPH!

A Fairfax copy saw this and though he couldn't catch us (he told us this), he was able to clock us at over 110 MPH. He pulled up behind us at the Gallows Road deceleration lane and man was he hot. And were we both crapping ourselves. Anyway, after he calmed down, he said because we had not given him a load of sh--, he would see about putting in a good word for us in court.. which he did. Even though I had lost my license for 60 days the previous year, I got off with a $25 fine and court costs.

And I seriously learned my lesson. Don't race on 66 on Sunday nights in traffic (heh, heh).

 

fckin dumbass, no the the cop, i mean you OP

 

WOW OP sorry but wtf did i just read...... i think you need to pay more attention in english class.

So.... the cop was trying to pull you over but he was in front of you?... i dont get it.

 

yea, thats so true and its actually happened before on here

 

I cant agree with you there. Even people with Geo Metro's can be douches on the road. I just got a 2004 TL Sept of 2009. Ive already gone 135 mph(with 5 people in the car) on it but i know were to do it. As far as getting away from the cop, you just got lucky, but props for thinking about switching lanes at last second. I would have been shitting bricks if that happened to me. I still have not been pulled over, and i'm 21.

 

i just wasted 5 mins of my life reading all this bullshit...

correct me if i'm wrong but what i take away from this thread is....

your a spoiled rich kid who fled from police..what a smart thing to do..

remainds me of when i was younger and my dad telling me to pull up my pants and straighten my hat...he was trying to keep me from looking like a fucking idoit...wish i would of listened a little sooner.

i'm done ranting...this thread makes me unhappy.

 

not very smart of you to travel at 135mph with 5 people in the car. Then again, your 21 so you must be cool

 

I know we all have done stupid shit in our youth. Despite the OP being 16 yrs old and barely having experience on the road, eventually he'll end up like some of us cruising in the right lane at the speed limit.
The last thing I need is to damage my car. Especially when it takes me like 3 hours to wash it.

 

I don't think that driving like an idiot is your biggest problem. I think the fact that you are an idiot is!

 

 

And your sharing this story why!?!?! Glad you learned a lesson perhaps you shouldnt drive like an asshole! 95 in the HOV and expecting people to move out of your way!?!!?

Mommy and daddy should NOT buy 16 year old kids fast new cars.

 

sorry for the double azine doesnt like me right now

 

:ibtl:

 

Gentlemen, watch your rants and such. This is getting a little out of hand. Pointing out the OP's mistakes are fine. Just don't get nasty about it.

 

^ Sorry

 

This community can be such a bunch of whiney bitches. I mean seriously, who here can actually say they've never gone 95mph on a public highway? PLEASE!!! Donw in CA, sometimes that just the rate of traffic... lol

NE-ways, I really liked the OP's story. Congrats on your "Get outta jail free" card? Lesson learned...

BTW: Yes that is a rhetorical question. I don't really care who's never gone 95 on public roads...

 

Way to generalize.

Its actually funner to drive in the slow lane. Theres alot more action going on, merging,crazy people who use it as the fast lane etc...

 

the problem i have with the op is not the speed I dont think anyone is denying ever going 95 on a parkway the problem here is that he was being RECKLESS forcing people out of the HOV!?!? thats insane Im sorry but OP should really count his lucky stars that cop was out there and slowed him down whether he got pulled over or not he probably saved the dumb kids life and possibly others.
