I fought the law, and *I* won |
My girl's been out of town for the week on a ski trip with her friends.
So I ran out of food this morning and as it just snowed and I was hungry
from having done all the snowblowering. I figured I'd hop in the car and
do the little run.
Getting to the store was no problem, but on the way back I was having a
little fun and doing about 65 in a 40. The snow on the road had dried up
by then so only the side streets were wet.
The cop got me on doppler and lit up his lights, but he was on the other
side of a divider and would have to go about 1000 yards before he could
come back my way. I had about 200 yards before I made the right turn
into my neighborhood. I fly around the corner (thanks for the "Sport"
mode Volvo) and then there's about 8 acres to go before I hang a left.
I know from experience that at acre 1.5 my garage door opener is in
range, so as I'm flying around the left corner the garage door is 3/4
open and I pull right in and hit the controller again. Door goes down
and I'll bet the cop was only up to the point at which he had initially
caught me on the doppler.
I ran upstairs and watched the cop make several passes of the
neighborhood. Sure would have been trouble if I wasn't just seconds from
home.
I wonder why they won't let me have a driver's license?

Franz, you need a spanking.

I was brainwashed by the media! I saw that Pixar movie "Cars" and the
cars were all happy about driving fast.

HA! sheesh. Crazy mixed up kid. I drive like a nun when I have
anything I don't want to be stopped for. I like your 'Bat Cave'
maneuver.
Everything provokes a story as I get old. My roommate 20 years ago,
the guy who is in that famous band, used to drive a couple hundred
miles at least about 4 nights a week, playing Newport, Hartford,
Boston...and he'd always drive home, just above NYC. Anyway, he had
techniques. We were driving about 65, a porshe(sp?) goes by at 87, my
friend pulls out in his Sentra and says, "He's my radar detector",
follows him from a mile back at high speed. One night him and another
guy were coming South through Hartford at 100, a bit bombed. They
passed a Statey, and he pulled out, but they pulled off an exit, into
a parking lot or something, and lost the cop. Of, course, then you
have to wait 20 minutes, get back on and do 55 for a few miles, where
he is probably hiding. But he wasn't.
I can hear that radar clicking at my truck through my radio. Black
truck, like stealth technology.

I was just enjoying a little bit of hearing that turbo wind up after not
having driven my little sports wagon in a while. Had there been no cop I
would have just gunned it up to about 70 and then coasted to the turn. I
wasn't out for excitement, just a little push into the seat.
