IL getting caught by a cop history :)

[dv6cougar]

post your cop stories... I have alot, and I will post them as they come to me.

I just posted one in NorCal Neco... let me go get that post and I will post the info in here.


Anything that pertians to cops you can post. How they gave you a huge ticket for no reason, how they let you off, how they didnt' do anything when this happened(my story).

Let's get a godo post going ;)

EDIT: MY STORY
This was approx. 2 years ago.

I was driving in my mom's old car, a Bravada, we were going to blockbuster.

We're driving down this road and this idiot is coming right at us, at 80mph in the wrong lane of traffic. And there was a cop on the other side of this street, who had just pulled someone over for speeding, presumable. So i started honking my horn, so the cop would notice this moron and get him for driving at us in the wrong lane. The moron cop didn't do **** about it!

I had to swerve onto the shoulder to get out of the way. It was a 4 lane(2 lanes each way) road and he was in the outside lane in the wrong directions. He then proceded toward the light behind us, and went through a redlight still in the wrong direction of traffic.

I agree there's too many people out there that shouldn't be on the road. :shrug:

and Thanks to Viz, he gave me the idea for this thread.

My friend decided he wanted to drag race down the most cop infested road in all of the area. Mercury Villager versus Chevrolet Corsica w/ no air box or anything, sucking in dirt basically.

They line up at the stop sign, which is essentially, all potholes, floor it, manage to get over the potholes without breaking their suspension, and they get to about 50 after 30 seconds.... no joke, then the moron in the corsica decides to fly past what we told him was a cop camping, I was following him, I decided not to cut the cop off, good i didn't, she would of had a field day with me. She pulls my friend over... uh oh... County Sheriff. :'( Thankfully, she gave him a warning and only thought he was speeding in the subdivision, not on the road, or he was screwed.

That kind of made me think for 3 minutes, and realized just the day before they were looking for me because we were going down the wrong lane (S10 and I) and the cops were in a hurry to find me, I was like, uh oh... never realized 'till a day later.


Another one is short:

In friends 1989 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z, we're pullin' the T-Tops out on the side of the road... hop in without opening the doors, he lights the tires up, fishtailing and leaving rubber all over, right as he's doing this a cop was passing in the other lane. We look back, he pulls a U-turn in the 4 lane and whips his car around, we go flying through the closest subdivision at about 40 mph and got to his house. We told him mom he forgot his cell phone. :)

haha my friend David, we call him Scooter has a Corsica too.

He made a "ram air" system for it :rofl: it's a pipe leading from the open airbox behind his head light, so when he reaces he removes the headlight.... :rofl: GHETTO!

anyway, he has a 3.1L in it. That little smuck has balls! I raced him for 25 dollars and kept my buddy in my car.

I barely beat him, like 1/4 of a car length custom_images/emoticons/shocked.gif but I only exhuast then, whew.

anyway, he's like you didn't win **** that was a tie. So i was like wanna go again *****?

we went and holy ****! my car had like nitrous, i beat him by 3-4 car lenghts people said the 2nd time haha :rofl:

and my friend only weighs maybe 140lbs, so it's not him that was "weighing me down" at least not 3 car length difference.

he came out, OMG i have never seen anyone so good at stick, he shifted into 2nd and he just smoked me :rofl:


street racing rules :)

My better stories are the ones where I didn't get pulled over. I seem to have a 6th sense for knowing when there is a cop.

Story one:
In 1999, I was signing up my classes at DeVry. I took off work to do it and my time was limited. After waiting in a long line, I find out that COD didn't send my transcripts... so I have to go to COD and get temp transcripts... I luck out because I manage to haul ass to COD down 355 and back at 85 mph (fast as my Escort could go!) without seeing a cop. After finally registering, and being really late for work, I'm doing about 85 down I-290 when I see a pink Crown Vic in the Center lane... I blow past it at full speed thinking nothing of it being damn pink! The guy instantly switches lanes to get behind me, and starts to match my speed. My spidey sense tells me this isn't right, and I start slowing down... he gets back beside me like he's going to pass me... but gets right beside me... I look over and all he does is flashes his badge at me... I'm sure the look on my face was priceless... and I hit the brakes.

Lucky ass story #2:
I was coming home from school one evening, and just as I blew through the IPass lanes on 355 south, I decided to pass a bunch of cars... so I Pick up a good speed, and go from the far left lane, to the far right break-down lane around all the traffic, and then back to the far left... I see in my rear view a little ways back a black Trans Am doing the same. My first though was this guy was going to show a Cougar it wasn't all that... but for whatever reason, my spidey sense went off again... I wedged my Cougar into the middle lane between two cars, reluctantly the Trans Am finally went ahead and passed in the left... I got behind him... about a mile down the road his lights came on as he pulled over to back up another officer. I about died. This was before it was common knowledge that IL State Police use Trans Ams.

Story #3:
I was coming home from a trip, going East on I-88... I was going 75 in a 65, but didn't slow down when the speed limit dropped to 55... By pure luck I noticed a copy in the left lane of opposing traffic, and noticed him suddenly start to slow down really hard... he was pulling a U-turn at the opening I had just passed... Without thinking, I pulled a hard right crossing all the traffic to exit... I went about a block down the road and pulled into a Wendy's drive through...

All my actual pulled over stories are boring... usually for me speeding... all the cops had been really friendly...

go Reagan. Now i have a few more stories :tongue:

Story 1.

My friend Jimmy is driving at 140mph in a 55 and it changes to 35 :biggrin: and i'm in the passenger side seat.

Now we're just going like we do at 3 am for fun, we go top speed driving, really fun actually. We're going and like i said a buck forty in a 35 and we pass a dark car in the side of the road and when we pass him, his lights turn on and he comes on to the road. I was like **** Jimmy that has to be a cop. he slams on the brakes and get's to baout 45mph and turns right at 45mph and then slams on them again, we slid into the grass on the next raod, then gained control and came back onto the road which then has a double 90 degree turns, like an S turn.

we lost that cop ;)

Story 2.

I was driving going 75 in a 40 on Grand Ave. (located by Gurnee Mills and Great America, both are of it), and I hit traffic, we then hit a stop light and are turning left to get some Chinese food. We look over to the right turning lane(4 lanes over) and we see this guy in a Celica, the old model before the new styles they have today. And he's reving his engine at us like mad and all his friends are laughing, so we started laughing at him and i rev up my engine back, and we're just going at one another to about 5k rpm's each, really loud haha, and the people in between us are like WTF and really mad. Anyway, as we are doing this, we get left arrow and he get's the right arrow and I didn't see the light change, so my buddies like GO MAN, and we both let off the clutches and did massive burnouts! Now the Celica got pulled over right afterwards by a cop in the parking lot next to where he turned right. talk about luck!

Story 3.

We were coming home from our Chinatown racing in chicago at 5 am. So we have the open highway :) and we just go all out. Anyway, I was driving the Cougar and i was racing my buddies Jetta, it's modded and does kick my butt :biggrin:... anyway...

it was me in teh middle next to my friend in his dads 95 Civic EX which is auto haha, and all of a sudden the Jetta pulls up next to us at full speed, and had to slow down becuase there was a truck in front of him and after that a truck in front of me, which was just far enough ahead that i could make it through. So i punched it adn went to the right of the car in front of me and he went after me and went left and teh civic also guns it, but is left behind without a trace haha.

Now we take off and we're going and I hit my limiter at 108 pretty fast because we started at 90mph. Anyway, he keeps going, and about ½ a mile down the road we passed him at 100mph, pulled over by a cop!

he had made it to slow down we found out and only gotten a ticket for 25 over custom_images/emoticons/shocked.gif the luck in that.

I have plenty more, like i siad i'll post them as they come to me :)

Tonight, yet another story.

After rampaging town tonight ( we were terrors ), we turned onto probably the #1 cop spot, Caton Farm Road ... a 35 zone for like 2 miles with so many side streets for cops. Anyways, my friend, driving the minivan as I mentioned early, blew a stop sign, went into the wrong lane got into his, is throwing open ketchup packets out the window, it's like 30ºF out mind you, I was freezing. He's doing 50 in a 35 and still going hard... as Reagan said about his sense, I have that sense too when there's a cop. I look behind, it's dark, and make out the rack on top of the car. I told my friend (who had Linkin' Park Meteora (THEY SUCK ASS THX) blarin') and he's like BS, your lying, then other friend looks behind he's like, yo dude, it is a cop... so we decelerate to about 40 and I dunno if it was cause we were going down hill, it would of been a pain to pull us, or the cop had somewhere to go/didn't want to stand in the cold, but we got away somehow, thank god I had the sense... I'm the kid that never wants to get in trouble and stays away when everyone else is... lame, but I have a nice clean record.

Doesn't help that I hit the world's BIGGEST pothole doing 85mph today. I had front end alignment screwed up and my brand new back tire that I replaced 2 months ago... flat.

New rims and tires hopefully, probably going Centerline.

[dv6cougar]

that sucks Ryan.


Story 4.

I had a blow out in my Golf at 105mph(top speed gov'n haha)...... anyway, we were going to Mc Henry to play pool at the Spot, and I was going 105 down route 120 going towards mc henry. (it may not be in Mc Henry, but it's in hte Mc Henry county and i live in Lake)...

anyway, we are going 105 and my tire blows out. So the car starts sliding back and forth and i had to keep it under control somehow.

I was turning the wheel with the car, and slowly hit the brakes down as to not cause a sliding reaction from the car. Anyway, we got out of it ok, but that was scary custom_images/emoticons/shocked.gif then the cops came and saw our swerve marks and asked wtf we were doing. We all said nothing we were going 40 mph(speed limit) and the tire blew out. And he said, kid there is no possible way that you made those marks going 40mph. you were going at least 90mph probably more, unfortunately i didn't get you on radar, but I know your lying and that's not a good way to go with me. We persisted that we were going 40mph. He siad well how do you have 6 passengers in a 5 passenger car?.... uh oh custom_images/emoticons/shocked.gif my friend quickly replys for me, my friend drove too, but he left to go get a jack stand and spare tire.

the cop leaves and we call up a friend to come with a spare tire and jack. close call again

Story 5.

I was working with 10 of my friend to make 10,000 binders for a company called Rento kill.. we had 8 days to do it and we needed more wooden crate thing(i forget the name, figures :mad: ) so me and my friend Andrew left to get them in the companies Voyager, a 91 ish. So it has been snowing and it has become pretty much a blizzard and there's traffic all the way down route 137 coming at us, and we're driving the other direction. There's a hill and we go up it fine, but as soon as we get to the top, we're travelling at prob. 40mph we see a car turn out in front of us! the idiot didn't feel ilke waiting, and was turning around. Now he's about 50 feet in front of us, we'øre in a minivan from 91, not a big chance of making the stop custom_images/emoticons/shocked.gif so i slammed on the brakes as a reaction and the vans sliding everywhere and i'm just turning the hweel keeping it from hitting the cars in the ohter lane. Amazingly the other car starting moving as we were coming to a stop and we didn't hit him, but it was so close. And we didn't have insurance on hte van for us. Anyway, we turned off the road about ½ a mile up the road and the guy got pulled over by a cop coming out of where we turned in :)
