Dustin gets pulled over again part 8: The Sobriety Checkpoint

So I'm driving home from the beach with my lady. We're less than 2 miles from home, as soon as we cross into my town it looks like an accident scene. Cops everywhere (at least a dozen), flood lights, police moble command center, cones, flares, everything. All that was missing was the helicopter flying overhead. I'm like **** must be some accident or a fatality or something.

I get to the cop that's directing traffic and he says "sobriety checkpoint go pull over there". I'm like great, this is gonna be an emissions checkpoint for me with my no cats and SLP loudmouths.

So this cop holding a clipboard comes over.
Cop: Good evening we're doing a sobriety checkpoint, where you coming from
me: the beach
cop: license and registration
me: here you go
cop: gonna ask the obvious question, anything to drink tonight?
me: nope
cop: follow this pen with your eyes
me: okay
cop: okay have a nice night

So I had the car turned off this whole time. I go to turn the key and push the button, there's a cop holding a clipboard RIGHT BEHIND MY CAR. I'm thinking this ain't gonna be pretty. So I'm wincing as I extend my finger out to push the start button, watching my rear view mirror. I press the button watching behind me, KA-POWWW my car nearly backfires as usual. The cop behind the car holding the clipboard jumps and nearly drops his clipboard. I can feel the blood draining out of my face like I'm going to faint. I look ahead of me and these 2 cops are RUNNING towards me with this like startled look on his face. I'm like oh great I'm screwed.

The 2 cops get to my window and one of em screams at me "THAT SOUNDS AWESOMEEEEE!!!!!". My fiancee starts hysterically laughing at me. Then the guy is like "is it supercharged?". I'm like nope, I have enough trouble staying away from you guys. Turns out this guy has a supercharged mustang. It was all good and I pulled away at the first chance I got.

YOU CAN'T TICKET MEEEEE!!!!!

Good story, glad you weren't drinking and driving but this definitely isn't a "pulled over" story. I have had to pull over a few times in Florida and NJ for these especially during the holidays, no biggie as long as you're sober.

I'm up to 5x pulled over without a ticket. I'll catch you yet. What I want to know is why they always ask me "Is this your car?" I don't exactly LOOK like a typical car theif.

Mine's so modified I can't bring it to work... something about the tint and no front plate. Sarge actually bought the Borla Stingers as being the same as original equipment... FRPP has Ford right in it so it must be factory equipment. It's gonna get real bad next year with Livernois heads/Comp cams/ARH LT's.
