I ended up in jail once just for asking a cop a question. You must have nice cops there. Now, lets hear more on how you talk your wife into going in to strip clubs? Talk S-L-O-W-L-Y <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Ivory:
Here is one for the record books. My co-pilot and I were on our way to one of the local gentlemen's club in WI Dells last night for a bit of late night fun when the laser detector went off. Bang! 1149 feet later when I passed the patrol car and after being followed for two blocks by the local law enforcement the lights go on! At this point I begin to remember the advice on the Viper board, I pull slowly to the right which takes about 3 blocks, coast to a stop another half block, wait for the officer to walk up and engage in my own round of questioning to the officer. Of course he ask how fast I was going, I replied "the posted speed limit" he asked "how fast is the posted speed limit" I replied "25" a lucky guess! He said I was going 49! He returned to his cruiser to write the ticket, check for wants, warrants, ownership and the other things officers do. I began my preparation, documenting his location, weather conditions, visibility, time of evening, and readying myself for the laborous act of reading the entire small print on the ticket while he waits for a signature. Well, when he returns, I immediately ask to inspect his laser equipment, ask when he tuned the equipment, how many cars did he see when he got me. He could not answer how many cars were in the area or when the equipment was last tuned or why he waited 2 blocks after I passed him to turn the lights on? I proceeded to explain the small town cop theory and the nice sports car in the crowd theory. He agreed...and responded with he gets stopped in his sports car also. I responded, "let me guess, a CAMARO". Dam*&^% I was right! Well, we talk about how cops do give violators with hot cars a bad break and how the system can be unfair. He did ask me to tell him how fast I was going. I told him that if I did that I would be self incriminating. He agreed! We chatted about social issues for about another half hour and agreed that each of us were stand up guys. Just as that happended the snow began to fall! Like magic he said "I'm going to cut you a break!" He tore up the ticket and said, give the next Cop a chance to be a nice guy. We both went on our way after about 45 minutes to conduct the stop. My co-pilot and I, who happens to be my wife, continued onto the local gentleman's club for late night fun. Oh, yes, snow, cold, wet weather. No not the Viper, was in or screaming yellow Audi TT Turbo, AWD winter rocket of which there are only 5 factory painted cars in the US sporting this color. Not quite as much fun as the Viper in dry conditions, but blows the Viper away in the snowy and wet weather. Thanks to all who contributed to the how to make the state loose money on a traffic stop.
Anyhow, we went on to see other Bizarre things that evening. Like the stippers unstripping the female guest at the club....
