[ColdCamaroSS]

Well, finally got stopped in the Camaro. I was leaving a friendly poker game and 3 people who I didn't really know wanted a ride to the bar since they had been drinking and I hadn't. The bar was on the way home so I had no problem being a DD.

So I'm driving pretty conservative and everyone likes the car asking me pretty typical questions like, "Does it transform?", "When is it going to talk to us?", "Where is the center seat belt?" and of course "What's the fastest I've been?". Lol...anyways, about 100 yards from the bar, I decide to do a downshift to second and punch her, giving my newly acquainted passengers a nice little thrill ride before turning into the bar.

Just as I slowed down to make the turn, I see blue and red in the rearview mirror. Doh, busted. So I put the hazards on, turnoff the car and turn the dome light on. Then wait.

Now, North Pole police have a reputation of being "thorough" with their duties as police officers. I'm thinking great, way too show off and get a ticket or worse. I was expecting the "book" to be thrown at me.

The officer walks up, asks why I was being stopped. I answered him with complete respect and explained about being a designated driver and basically showing off for the passengers before dropping them off. Asks if I had been drinking , told him no, not a drop. Then the all important question, "Do you know how fast you were going?"
I could give him a logical guess but I wasn't looking at the speedo, so that was the answer I gave him. Tells me to sit tight as he goes back to his car (it was one of their new hemi chargers all black)

Comes back only moments later and asks me one more time, "how much did I have to drink tonight", "nothing Sir" I replied, he said ok, "have a good night and be a little more prudent on the road."

Whew! Very fortunate but kinda of embarrassing. I'm sure he could have written a number of different citations but he might have just heard my exhaust (loud enough to wake the dead) but wasn't able to lock onto my speed in time. I also think a more important call came in and since I wasn't drunk, cut me a break.

So, I wanted to thank the police (yes I said it) and maybe I'll be a little more prudent on road.
