Fastest you've ever been clocked by the fuzz

i can pretty much guarantee you the deputy that busted you wasn't the one that clocked you :wink:. the one that clocked you didn't even start his car. by the time he would have gotten up to 60mph, had you kept your speed you would have been in the next state :p. he called the next 3 or so counties to have them keep a look out for you :wink:.

I can relate to that statement. I did a ride along with my brother (he is a C-bus cop) and we were running radar on Rt. 315. Some guy in a Mercedes passes us at 115 at 3am in the morning as we sat on the side of the road near 5th ave. I start screaming at my brother to go get him and he keeps sipping his coffee and tells me he wants to give the guy a head start. He then nonchalantly picks up the radio and alerts his buddies to the guy. He then pulls out and drives 60mph till we see the guy pulled over just north of Bethel Road surrounded by 3 other police cruisers. They clocked him officially at 98 mph. They guy admitted that he had reached 135 mph before he decided to slow down.

As a driver, 76 in a 55 last month (contesting the ticket).

As a passenger, 105 in a 35 in my best friend's Ford Torino back in 1974 (on route 46 between Mahoning Ave and Kirk Rd, for those familiar with A-Town). My friend also qualified for Dumbass of the Year for his reply to the cop:

Officer: Do you know how fast you were going?

Friend: No.

Officer: 105 in a 45.

Friend: (smirks) And I wasn't even out of third gear yet...

The cop was gonna let him off with a warning until his last comment...dumbass.

I think it's the wrong island, but watch out for the cast of Lost out there.

Jeeeeeeez. I'm going to give up driving as my New Year's Resolution. You people are fucking lunatics. I hope I never encounter any of you on the highway.

Never been pulled over for speeding. Once for having a headlight out. Dumb asshole cop made a u-turn in the middle of State Street in Westerville to pull me over for a fucking headlight. I'm glad to see that his priorities were in order. :roll1:

84 mph on the Ohio turnpike, down from at least 95 mph after my radar detector went off. Got let off for that one. In fact, I've been pulled over for speeding 6 or 7 times over the years and let off all but once. :biggrin: I make sure I pull in somewhere where the cop will be safe if possible i.e. a parking lot, and then I'm completely honest with them. "I know, I was speeding. I'm a dumbass. There's no excuse. I'll pay more attention." They seem to appreciate it...The one time I got ticketed I was only doing 54 in a 45. It was still $95 IIRC...

worked 12 hours in Holyoke MA. then drove straight home, bout 14 hrs or so. Coshocton county, I get off I-77 onto s.r. 36, there is no stop sign, just a ramp. the speed limit drops from 65 to 55. didn't matter, I was going over 90 in a rental. Coshocton sherriff pulls me over, says I was going 81 in a 55.
280 dollars. only ticket.

Some friends of mine were pulled over while we were in college. We had dropped a little bit of acid and realized there was no beer in the house. They decided they could make a beer run and were pulled over on the way. They were doing 9 in a 35.

we just took their word for it. But it did take them about an hour (or so it seemed) to go about 2 miles. They told the cop the car was bogging down and they were trying to get it to the gas station. No ticket.

Also about 10 + years before Black Sheep

57 in a 25 - then the cop clocked me again after he knew i hit my breaks - gave me a break and got me at 44 in the 25 - i was 19 and was late for work on a Sunday morning - there was nobody else on the road (545am) so he was pretty cool.

well as far as getting caught i was clocked at 83 in a 55.

about a year after i got my liscense in my old car i had it topped out at 108(GM governed) as a i met a slowed down 45mph section on the highway and the cop clocked me and took off like a bat out of hell from what i could see. luckily i was in the best possible situation ever. he was on the other side of the highway, there was some snow in the median, and i disappeared around a bend and took the offramp and headed into town for a bit.

Exit ramp in the snow? Sounds like a slippery slope.
