I passed a highway patrolman in California that was goin about 60 in a 65 on the interstate. I slowly went by him going somewhere between 65-67. Once I passed he got behind me and started tailgating and driving erratically. I moved over for him and he pulled up beside me and got on his loud speaker and started yelling that the speed limit was 65 not 70. I shook my head at him and kept driving. He must have floored it and sped up to around 90-100 mph while weaving in and out of lanes to put some distance between us. He really showed me...pnctar wrote:Loved to do that and see the reaction of folks ... then do 65 in a 60 and see who'd keep up with me . Very rarely someone would pass, 'cept the truckers I was talking to. Sometimes it was fun to clear the way for the guys "earning" a living and the folks just driving to work ...RottenApple wrote:I love that one. I was rolling through NM one time and came up on that very same situation. He had his ears on and we started jackjawing about it. He said he loved to do it to mess with people. Even gave me a wave as I passed him.mood wrote:Or the really cool one, and I've seen this all over the country when I used to drive a truck, is when the LEO is cruising around about 5 mph below the speed limit and everyone is afraid to pass him. I've seen traffic backed up for miles in this parade. I know that guy is up there in his car laughing about it.
Thats my tax dollars at work in CA.
