So this past summer I was driving there and I got behind a Alfa Romeo 159 with the Italian license plates. He was doing 190 km/h (120 mph) and so was I behind him in my Golf (who knew a 1.9L diesel can go that fast).
And at one point a cop in a newer Golf diesel passed both of us, didn't even bother to pull over either one of us.
That was lucky.
It usually takes 8-9 hours of driving to get from Serbia to Croatia ... I got there in less than 6.

One time when I was still in high school, a cop pulled me over in the school parking lot to tell me that the the speed limit is 5 mph and that I was speeding because I was driving 15 mph.

It was a small town (Twin Falls, Idaho, population at that time 30,000), barely any crime, so cops would pull you over for every little thing.
Other than speeding at 15 mph, I got pull over for license plate cover being too dark (they're still for sale at Wal-Mart), no front license place (not required by law in Idaho), muffler being too loud (completely stock muffler), turning from the 2nd lane to the parking lot (instead of moving to the 1st lane first) ...
Ever since I moved to Wisconsin in 2002 I never even been pulled over.

one time I was involved in a high speed chase and actually lost the cops, But they found me because they had my plate and knew where I lived. LOL They showed up at my house about 10 minutes after I did. They were pretty cool and didn't smash my face into the gravel driveway.
reckless driving and eluding police. I was like I didn't elude you, your here right?

last night i passed a cop in daingerfield while i was doing about 55 in a 40. this peppy little nissan altima cut me off right before a red light, so soon as that sucker turned green and the altima got back into the right hand lane i punched it and got around the altima that pissed me off. after back on track i seen the cop in the lane going the opposite way luckily there was a center shoulder between us or he wouldve pulled a Uey on me. i rounded a corner into a gas station and parked my car at a very funky angle just long enough to get 10 bucks in gas and scout outta there!! i think that my luck is running very thin by now!!

There was a radio station in Georgia (I think) that had a contest called "cop or not". The deejay would call a donut shop at random and the contestant would have to guess whether or not a LEO was at the donut shop. The local police chief had to prohibit his officers from going to the donut shops because there was almost always one there whenever the deejay would phone.

Last year when I was selling my truck I was letting a cop take it for a test drive and we passed a state trooper and he goes "there's another cop eating donuts"
it wasn't until we got closer that we noticed the cop actually WAS eating donuts!!!

I hated that cop that pulled up behind my car as I was walking into my house. Made me come sit back in my car while he wrote a ticket. It was freezing and I had no heat in that POS Eclipse.

Hah, that happened to the same girl I talked about earlier in the thread (the one that popped her pups out and the cop let her go) A cop pulled up in her driveway and the proceded to write her a ticket. Luckily or unluckily as it may be, her dad lived just down the street and he came over and gave the cop so much hell, he just gave up and drove away.
