You're one lucky sumbich.

There's a lot of cops who get BS'd and stupid stories that insult their intelligence all day long. Best bet is to pull over, make them feel safe, windows down, interior lights on, etc, fess up and apologize, just admit you did something stupid.

If you plan on fighting the ticket (in the event officer plans on issuing citation anyway).... don't admit to anything. Be courteous and +1 on making them feel safe.

You going to the Mustang car show in Nashua at the Technical College this sunday? I'll be there
No, as much as I'd like to go, we'll be throwing a graduation party for my daughter. Sounds like a good time though. I've got some work for Rick too! Wish I had some semblance of mechanical ability but my motto is, when all else fails, read the directions.
I don't doubt Dustin's been pulled over 7 times with no ticket. Truth is, once the cops are face to face with him they probably can't pull away fast enough. I'm sure their last thought while shaking their head side to side is, "what was I thinking?" ROFL

Sorry Dustin... but I ain't buying it. You have enough car to downshift and pitch it sideways for 40 ft, but it only runs high 12s? Those two don't add up.

Exhibition of speed, they ticket for a lot more these days in Houston.

Sideways rear stride in 3rd proceeding onto a freeway ramp at 110 mph; - exciting but scary. The Officer's expression whilst seated in the passenger seat; - priceless. Was once and once only. Takes not a lot to get her sideways in a power gear with the TQ these cars have.

In realizing the danger, one can understand why they get strict though.

Greatness! You gotta be the luckiest guy around. Like others have said, don't try to baffle us with BS and most likely you will get a warning as long as everything else is in order. Alot of folks talk themselves into tickets that they weren't going to get initially.

Way to go Dustin. I just hope the lucky streak continues. You really need to buy some powerball tickets.

You are one lucky s.o.b., Dusty!!!

The one time I get screwy with my ride, get pulled over, am totally upfront and honest with the guy and he still gives me the ticket!

WTG Dustin!!!

SEVEN lucky SEVEN!!!

You'd never get away with that here in So Cal... the cops aren't impressed with your car and are generally a bunch of a$$holes. (there are, of course, exceptions)

I once got two tickets in two days, for BS 15 mph over the limit. You are the king!!!!
