    I cannot tell a lie. I've never been caught in a pursuit. I have been stopped a few times otherwise.

    Once, I had a girlfriend that wouldn't get a icense becasue she was scared of the PD. I couldn't convince her they weren't all bad. Then, I saw a marked car up ahead and said to watch and learn. I passed the officer and we talked for a bit. She did too when I explained why I passed him. She got her license, I got a ticket.:dunno:

    LEO "Did you see that double yellow line?":dunno:
    Me "Yes Sir.":)
    LEO "Did you see me?":dunno:
    Me "Yes Sir, you were in that marked car with all the lights on top.":)
    LEO "And you passed me anyway????? Was there a reason for that?":dunno:

    We had a good chat after that part of the introduction was over. He ran the serial # of my firearm and handed it back when we were finished. She got her license later too. :rockwoot:

    If there was a "Badass of the Year" award, I would nominate you for it.

    BTW, pursuits aren't about outrunning the PD. They're about evasion. Done right, you only have to stretch the speed limit, not thoroughly abuse it.;)

    Why was he (you said Sir) in possession of your firearm?

    Exactly right!:) Back in the day, when I rode with my inlaws, we didn't have to worry too much about the radio. I come from a long line of NC and Va. 'shiners.

    Mmmmmmmmm, shine. Not like that **** sold at Sam's Club. I would love to have one of the old cars the moonshiners souped up to run from the law.

    If you had an honest explanation of why you passed me I would have an easier time of letting you go with a warning.

    He was going to do that, but had started the paperwork while mulling our initial conversation. He gave he one for improper passing and I just had to send $25. to the courts.


    Pursuits can be many things. While having a friendly race I was winning, I spotted the radar, so, I kept speeding, but started losing. The PD stayed behind me for a count of 20, then decided to get the one 'getting away'.

    (I retired from all this stuff 40 years ago, so don't get crazy!)

    Why was he (you said Sir) in possession of your firearm?
    Well, it was illegally concealed because it had shifted under the armrest. Open was OK. He saw the butt and asked if he could run it. I knew it was OK since it was from a closed case. I had gotten it from a judge.

    Lived across the street from the shop/junkyard where we were unlimited in what we could do.

    Ah ok, sorry I am not well versed in carry law in your state.

    OK, enough!:): This was about a legal carry and here I am illegal. Ooops, back to original thread.

    BTW, no FOID card here. NADA, unless you want to CCW.
