whodid you pay the money too?
I can't take credit for this one.
I knew a guy in highschool who got pulled over by a trooper on the Dallas tollway for 120 in a 60. The trooper walked up to the window and said "son, I've been waiting for your kind all day" and Robby replied with "well I got here as fast as I could".
Supposidly he sat there with a blank look on his face and then the trooper busted out laughing, no ticket.
He also got arrested during math class his senior year for attempted vehicular manslaughter. He was driving to school on morning when a guy yelled at him for driving too fast through the neighborhood. Robby did a u-turn and was driving back towards him w/ the guy standing in the middle of the street. The guy didn't move and neither did Robby and he clipped the guys leg w/ his side-mirror breaking his leg. Robby continued to school and got arrested soon later.
Drag racing at Texas Motorplex one Friday night and Robby was there. He was about 4 cars in front of me and he told me to watch his run b/c he was "going to do something cool when hitting 2nd gear". He hit 2nd and cut the wheel getting the car completely sideways on the dragstrip. They all got pissed at him and he explained he miss-judged the power during his shift. It was a 3rd gen 305 Firebird. :)
Last Robby story:
Driving by my folks neighborhood there is a 30 mph s-turn in one of the roads. Robby drives through at about 60 drifting the whole way through the right and then left hander. As he straightens out there is a cop driving right at him and pulls him over. Officer is extremely upset and yelling at his poor driving judgement. The officer has had enough and says "you could have killed someone, do you know how many kids live in this neighborhood?" Robby's reply, "NO, how many?" Officer is furious, Robby gets multiple tickets.
Last I heard of Robby he was living up in Michigan working for some small auto manufacturer designing transmissions for Jaguar.
Winner! What, guy was a John Deer fan and all you had was a Snapper?Quote:

Was over in Austin for a Sailing Team event at lake Travis but we went over and partied downtown on Friday night. Went to a bar, might have been on 6th street but was doing flaming Dr. Peppers for hours. We had 9 people with us in two trucks, 3 passed out and had to be carried out, the other 5 were bombed zombies and right before we left the bar, I blew a .40 on a breathalizer at the bar....so I was DD. So at this intersection right near the capital, I decided to do a big wooly burn out (94 dakota V8) with two passed out drunks in the bed of the truck, a tapped keg in the bed and two guys in the cab. The other group was right behind me at the light. Well, about 45 seconds into this elaborate smoke show, I see blue and red smoke, and that is about it as you can't see ANYTHING, even people on the sidewalks in the entire intersection. So I signal, make a right turn, park the truck about 150' past the intersection, shut the truck off and start getting my stuff ready to go to jail peacefully, our friends in the truck behind us pull in because they didn't know how to get to the place we were staying. Well, 25 minutes later the cops walk up to the door of the truck and he asks "what the hell were you thinking?" I looked him as straight in the eye as I could and told him, "officer, I was suffering from a case of H.U.A." I got a "what?".... "Head up my Ass sir!" He asked for my license and insurance, walked back to his car and came back about 2 minutes later. He asked what I did for a living and I told him I was a Student at A&M in town for a race at Lake Travis on Saturday and wanted to leave austin as soon as possible. He handed me my license and said get the hell out of here. Whoop!!! The sorry part of the story is that the girl driving behind me was only 19, got arrested for DUI, MIP and went to jail and missed the regatta on Saturday.
The funniest part of the story is the two dead drunks in the bed of the truck NEVER fucking moved until we drug them out of the truck when we got to the house in far N. Austin.
One of the Craziest nights I ever had in college and one of the stupidest really!
Heck, end of the year, why not!?! Someone pass me one of those Keylight Stones :lol:Quote:

Dang!! You guys have some great stories to share!
I always feel like the victim but then again.. I've gotten away with tons more than I've been caught doing. :D
<<<<Same County - Newberry>>>
Stopped on the way out of Columbia at my usual gas station. Pumping gas for about a minute when a state trooper flies up and skids in front of my car.
"License and registration now!!".
For what?
"Doing 73 in a 65"
When? and which direction was I going?
"You want to argue with me?" "We can do this the easy way or the hard way" "Finish filling up and come get your ticket when you are done" <he backs up into a parking spot away from the other cars>
So, I put the pump on auto (slowest setting) fill. Took about 10min and could tell the trooper was starting to get really pissed off. I knew I wasn't speeding and when he wasn't going to tell me which way I was traveling, but either way.. going to get a ticket.
I went inside and browsed the whole store <very small.. what a shame>.
Finished paying and went to get my Newberry token of appreciation.
73 in a 65 Southbound. Even though I knew I could fight it since I was going northbound at the time. It would be the same hooded judge in the same office as before. I did show up to pay so that it wouldn't go on my record.
Lesson learned... never ever drive a "modified" car through Newberry County.... EVER!

Duh!!!
BTW.. I was pulled over later that trip 1 mile before leaving South Carolina to North Carolina for doing 68 in a 65. This time the trooper was up-front and honest. He wanted to pull me over to check out the car and of course to see if I was transporting drugs. No ticket.
Jeff, I'll bring plenty of Stones for you, Proctor, and anyone else interested. :lol:Quote:
