Re: Tell your stories about cops pullin you over

Well I live in a small town longorange68 knows (kelso) on the washington side of the columbia river. My girlfriend and I went out for dinner and some crusin' so about 9:30 -10:00 we decide to drive across the columbia to Ranier. I won't lie to you guys, I speed... I own a lowered '71 chevy with a built 350 and I'm 18 years old...a cop could pretty much pull me over at any given time for blue dots, noise violation, etc. you get the picture. But I'm drivin' around with my girl and I keep the reckless driving to a minimum. So I'm crossing the Lewis and Clark bridge and my radar detector starts going wild, there's a cop sitting on the oregon side of the bridge, no big deal, I'm not speeding. So I continue on and as I'm hitting Highway 30 into Ranier and I see the cops headlights come on in my rearview mirror...dang! So I continue on, stop at the park, and my girlfriend and I are swinging at the park and watch the cop drive through town two times... I swear to God that he is looking for my truck. at this point I'm like lets get outta here, and my girlfriend is like what the heck is that cop doing. So we get in the truck fire it up and let it warm up for a minute, while I'm sitting there with my park lights on the cop drives by and gives me a glare. At this point I'm like OK this guys gonna pull me over, so I just flipped my lights on and drove down the road came to a stop at the sign, highway was clear and I went. Driving down the highway minding my speed and I see this cop dodging traffic trying to catch up with me. 1/4 mile from the bridge, almost there! Blue lights...SH**! So he walks up to the truck and this is the first thing he said "Well believe it or not it's a friday night and I'm bored." I'm not even kidding, I'm Bored? WTF! Then he continues on to tell me that I wasn't speeding and I had no traffic violations except I didn't stop at the sign for 3 full seconds. Long story longer he runs my license and then tells me that running a stop sign in the state of Oregon is a $284 moving violation. No ticket...yes! What is the deal with that? Isn't that like Vehicular Profiling or something? I've been pulled over like 6 times and I've yet to get a ticket, thank God!
