CTR vs. Police Car

[zumbooruk]

FYI, The California Highway Patrol (CHP) is deploying a new generation of low-profile, specially marked patrol vehicles (SMPV). These Doge Durangos are outfitted with a Hemi V8 engine, a police pursuit package, concealed emergency lighting, and a low-profile version of the CHP logo on their doors.

It's good to try to build some self restraint for one's own good.

Does anyone ride sport bikes and if so, have you gotten pulled over in your sport bike?

I've been driving my Z06 and it's hard but I have to keep myself in check in that vehicle.

That’s exactly why I don’t ride a bike…

One night while on patrol I was driving about 55mph in a 45mph posted zone when a FL5 identical to mine blew by me doing at least 75mph. The driver immediately slammed on his brakes and I activated my lights for a brief second to scare him and then shut them off.

When I pulled up next to him, the driver was of Chinese or Japanese descent and was yelling, “sorry officer! Was just enjoying my new car! I didn’t mean too!”

I just shook my head and told him, “slow down around marked units dumbass!” And drove off lol, I didn’t tell him I have the same car.

It was like 1-2am in the morning and there were almost no cars on the road.

Are you available for cloning?

Lol there are so many car guy cops. You just don’t deal with them much because we use our “discretion” a lot more on traffic and don’t pull you over as much.

I just remembered this hilarious video.
Cop: “I have a car that would smoke yours.”

The squad car looks more fun than a sport bike and a CTR and a Z06 - plus you're getting paid when you're operating it. Went through the academy successfully but wasn't fit for the position. Guess I should have prepared and started sooner to better my chances.

In some states and municipalities, police aren't allowed to engage in high speed pursuits (especially with motorcycles).

That being said, I don't recommend FAFO.

Was told that exact thing by a cop I talked to, been flashed a few times and given quite a few thumbs ups by cops - though I've been told by friends I'm trying fate with my license plate "2F4ST4YA" heh heh

Yea, the plate might be misconstrued. Little do they know you got it ironically when your car would get smoked by a minivan full of a soccer team.
