While driving a mile further down the road I saw a car rapidly approaching me from behind, then the dreaded flashing lights came on. I signalled and pulled her over waiting for my fate.
The policeman came up and first out of his mouth was "is it real?" to which I responded no it's a replica. He told me he pulled me over because I broke the rear tires loose and it is illegal in Illinois to do. I know I held traction but I think all of the noise lead him to believe otherwise.
He told me it was a beautiful car and to hold it down around town, he said to take it out to the country to have fun with it and gave me a verbal warning and told me to have a nice night.
Shook his hand and told him to do the same, so did my car just get me into trouble and out of trouble at the same time???????????    |
Hmmmm, I had somewhat of a similar thing happen to me on 24 near Eureka. I wonder if it's the same officer, he asked me the same line of questioning
I think I was parked next to you at the Logan's event in June. I have the Red Shell Valley with the white stripes. Or you're not the same person at all...
