So, out driving tonight with some friends, taking them home from a concert, and they want to see what the Celi can do. We head for a small backroad. Turning onto it, I've got the underglow going, and get a little wheelspin cornering. Car feels great. I've got a straight stretch of road ahead of me now, so I hit the gas. Speed limit is 35, but road is straight and empty. Except for one set of headlights behind me.
You guessed it. They had me for 65 in a 35. 1 extra passenger Underglow And numerous other matters of symantics such as: Cornering with excessive speed and wheelspin Who knows what else? Only, when the cop came up, he said "Wrong place, wrong time. Liscense, insurance, registration. You got any explanation for what was going on here?" I said "Being stupid and screwing around." Cop: "Good answer. Sit tight." He runs all of my stuff, checks the car for weapons, drugs, alcohol, and lets me go. I absolutely could not believe it. I honestly hope I've learned my lesson, because I seriously doubt that will EVER happen again. This post has been edited by ZacMan1987: Mar 4, 2006 - 1:52 AM |

At least you were mature enough to admit to it. Most pr1cks would have tried to make excuse after excuse. Doesn't excuse what you did to get pulled over, but it's refreshing to see someone being honest and owning up to being silly.
