What a ****. I hate cops that think they are your friend because they have a gun and a badge and are driving a squad car.
Nice Vipers though.

Yep nice cars...but doesn't a cop need some reason to pull you over?
Or were you guys speeding a bit and just didn't get a ticket?

I was in traffic once and a motorcycle cop pulled up next to me and asked if I had a moment to pull over. I said that I guess I didn't have a choice. He said, "oh, yeah, you do. I just want to check out the car if you have time." He turned out to be a nice guy and we chatted cars for ten minutes.
A friend of mine who is a cop always sneaks up on me and lights me up.
One night I came up on a cop car going down the freeway and it was him and his new partner. His partner turned uot to be a big fan of the Viper so they gave me the signal to "GO" and we blasted down the freeway together, I showed him what a Gen IV Viper could do , for a short stretch of course, good stuff!

A lot of cops become cops so they can drive fast and pretty much do as they please so not a bad idea to get to know them if they just want to see your car. Get his name and commit it to memory... You could always try dropping the name the next time you're pulled over.... Like... Oh Yeah... Officer Donuts is a cool guy... I was talking to him a little ways back...bla bla bla This works about once every three times...

They don't work that way around these parts. They approach the vehicle, ask for your ID and ins. card, tell you why you were pulled over and then walk away to return with a ticket. In the rare instance there is actually any conversation between me and the cop, I make it a point to let him know he's not my friend.
Oh, and I think cops like that don't just want to drive fast, it's how impotent men that still live at home with their parents carry out their fantasy of having their way with you.

Hmmm.... yellow car in the front....
Hope there were no tickets issued!
Thats because the slow yellow need a push from the powerfull fast RED Viper and behind the Red viper there are tow straps to help the others along.

I got stopped one early evening on my way back to Michigan from South Bend, IN and the initial reason was 80 mph in a 70 zone. I knew the officer wasn't going to give me a ticket pretty early, he just wanted to make sure I had all my paperwork in place and that it wasn't stolen. We chatted for about 30 minutes, opened up the hood for him, told him tons about Gen II vs Gen III & IV Vipers and we shook hands and I left.
I know if there ever was an "iffy" call where I might or might not get a ticket, I helped my cause by sharing my love of this car with someone else.
I also asked if that officer was involved in any charity work, hoping that if he was I could make an appearance in the car as another way to do something that helps rather than hurts my case for occaisionally driving over the speed limit. This officer didn't have any Police Benevolency League or charity work, but someday one officer will. Maybe the "duck a ticket; give you a warning" won't actually be for me, but one of my other VCA members.

Hopefully it was just a nice photo shoot.

Dear Lundqvist,
You'll be surprised to hear this, but I've had officers tell me about their charity work twice during a roadside stop and I've made arrangements to show up and answer questions about my car. Coincidentally, I didn't receive a ticket either time.
Regards,
Aaron

No speeding tickets with Yellow in front.......
come on guys, you gotta admit. Lundqvist's comment is hilarious.
On the other hand - now I know why us mere "enthusiasts" get no respect on this site.

Hey Rizzo- You better be careful. That car only ever got one ticket. I left the other two that came with the car (just like all other vipers) in the glove box for you, so you could get those tickets punched.
I was headed for Vegas VOI and had just started into Oregon. I got nailed for 85 in a 55!
Be careful out there!!

No tickets that night. Im still good. In fact the last ticket I got was in my Vette about 5 years ago. I came home on Saturday with the top down, 500 miles in under 5 hours and 1 gas stop. I was impressed. Gotta love living in the prairies in Canada. 500 miles of near straight 4 lane highways and no traffic and not 1 cop in site.

Agree with you 100% on this one. Well said. And maybe the four cops in New Orleans will get the "death penalty" too as quoted in the news last week for their actions during Katrina. I was just notified from the DAs office that the detective that messed up my stolen Viper case two years ago got fired.

The irony of this is that we all know it to be true, yet they act like they are total professionals with no wiggle room. Its "all business" and they "had to give you a ticket" or act like they are "doing you a favor writing it for 19 over instead of 20+". What BS. We all know there's lots of leeway, they just regular guys who get to act cool behind a badge giveng them some authority, and they are just in it for your money anyway.
