I grew up on a farm, i go back every year at harvest time to operate the header and help my olds out. Anyways i was driving the header down a small laneway at about 40, ute was in front as a lead car, now a few weeks before a new highway johnny had hit town, didn't know all the roads all that well. Coming up a junction the lead car waited and took of as i came over the hill, all of a sudden just as i came to the junction this purple SS comes flying around the corner straight at me. I don't know about you guys but a 15 tonne header does not stop all that fast and i had no where to go. The johnny managed to stop the SS about half a CM from the comb mountings (kinda spear like hooks), i've never seen someone look so white. Had a good chat and a bit of a laugh about it with him.
when i first got my p's i had an auto vl commodore n/a auto,thought it was fast, as we all do(registered in my mums name to save rego/insurances cost) went around a roundabout sideways in a school zone,which had a copper there waiting for people to speed,sure enough he pulled me over and said, why are you driving your mums car like a f**king idiot,do you want me to impound it you w**ker!! now f**k off and don't do it again. i bet p'platers now days wouldn't get away with that? LOL and this is a true story i had 2 people off this forum in the car. happened about 8years ago in blacktown nsw,good old days. BOTH MATES STILL CANT BELIEVE IT STILL TO THIS DAY,THEY BOTH HAVE LOST THERE LICENCE SEVERAL TIMES,I HAVEN'T TOUCH WOOD.
was doing fully sick burnouts in the sea front oval in my old 6 banger, about 4 years ago. cops pulled me and my mate up, cops said they have had some complaints about burnouts down on the oval, and of course being young and dumb the rear was covered in grass and dirt..and the cop let us go because he thought my commy was a 4WD and the front didn't have any signs of grass or anything lol.
haha This guy almost has the same name as me… lol… got defected for having a L67 CAI and his stupid ####ing excuse was its a defect because its induction??? WTF hahahaha all cars have induction just not cold air induction :banstick: << felt like doing this to him haha
Green p plater. VS V6. Driving home from work. As allways the cops do laps to try and pick on people (dont say they dont, Caloundra has the worst cops for this). Driving along, lights go on. For some reason they didnt run my plate before they went to pull me over. Pulled up in the carpark of woolies. They did a breath test and wanted to search the car. Passed, search reveiled i need to clean the rubbish out of the car. I was then asked to "pop the hood". I did, the cop looks at it and points to the plenum. "Is the a supercharger?" I replied "Sorry can you please repeat the question." I was lost for words. Cop: "Is that a super charger?" To which i reply "Nah mate, its a plenum, its all stock". Its not, has some MACE goodies. He then walks over to his partner was just got into the cop car and was running my plates finally. He then says to her "Nah wasnt a V8". She then replys, "it sounded just like a V8". He then replys "Nah i knew it was just a stock standard V6 commodore". I was trying not to laugh, it was bloody tough. I was then let go. Some JC members know what my car sounds like, nothing like a V8 (how can it, its a V6). Happened near the start of last month. I just cant beleive i drive a Supercharged V6V8. You jelly?
lol i was pulled over into one of them rbt things anyway, the fella is like mate, your car is burning oil mate, running hot and not idleling to well, now what he failed to realised is i have a big cam hahaha, what he could smell was my toxic exhaust and heat pumping out from the headers under neath and the idle well thats cus of the cam, not the brightest spark i must say
She was in the car, door opened. He was standing talking to her. I was standing on the drivers side. Their car was parked next to min on the passenger side (1 car park between us). 10pm at night. I could even hear was was said over this CBs.
Fair enough, whenever I"ve been in a car that's been pulled over by cops they have always parked behind...must"ve thought you were gonna try n do a runner or something lol.
Being the main road, i turned into the woolies carpark, parked nose first to a wall. I wouldnt be escaping to fast lol. By the time they parked, car was off as well.
They park behind you and further out onto the road than your car, that way any incoming cars will hit the police car and hopefully miss you and the cop if they are at your drivers window.
I pulled into the woolies car park. Proceded to park in a car park, not on the road, in a car park.... Dont ask why the parked the next one over. But hey, if you need more descriptions, i can do a better pic.... Following?
My old man told me in the early 80s when he got pulled over. "why were you speeding son?" "I need to pee" "have you been drinking?" "yes that's why I need to pee" "where do you live?" "just round the corner" "ok go there and don't let me catch you driving again tonight"
I had not long had my license, and I was on my way home from a mates house. Driving my N13 Pulsar hatch (what a weapon LOL). Cops pulled me up 1 street away from home. I had a backpack with Slayer and Metallica and Lamb of God written all over it (as most dumbarse high school kids do) He proceeds to check my license, blow in the bag etc, then he spots my bag and we go on to have a 20 minute conversation about heavy metal. Coolest copper ever
I know that it is not the intent of this thread, but I have to say something about this comment. I have been the president of a small local soccer club in a rural locality. We have one oval on which our kids can play sport. Generally the idiots who dig up the playing surface during burnouts just cause great inconvenience and some rectification cost. However, we had one incident when the field was wet and not played on for a while after a incident of such vandalism. The long grass was then cut without noticing the damage and the ruts filled with grass clippings. First training night after the field opened, we had a young lad break his ankle because of the unseen rut. Sir, I find your comments anything but humourous. There is no excuse for vandalism of areas of public access.
My story; On my P's driving a VR commodore full of people around 11pm( very wet night ) I'll keep the speed to myself but I was cruising along a road, got over the hill then pulled over on the side of the road to drop a Friend off when a car pulled up behind me. The rain was very heavy so all I could see were headlights so I thought I was a mate until the red'n'blues came on. Officer walked to my window and I thought I was going to be done for speeding and god knows what else so I was really stressing. I got RBT'd then the cop said "well, cops don't get wet. Cya" Not much of a story but I found it funny that night.
Do not drink drive! With that said, my mate was drink driving back home, got pulled over for a random breath test at Orange Grove near the maccas, he had just put down his beer and looked up and the girl signalled him to put over. The girl copper asked for his licence he said he didnt have it, so he spelt his name in the NATO alphabet she tested him, negative. Even though he just dropped his beer on the floor. Lucky bastard! Again, dont drink and drive..
If you ever get a chance ask some old fellas if they have any stories about encounters with cops. Was a completely different world then... pre drink driving laws etc. Heard this story. Early 1960's. The boys headed out of town on the highway late one night in a couple of cars to a local swimming hole for a few ales and a swim. Too many beers later it seemed like a good idea to smash the weatherboards off the ladies old dressing shed for a laugh. They were spotted and reported, and early next morning on the outskirts of town the local sergeant was parked on the side of the highway waiting for them . He was a giant and he was mad. Put the fear of God up em. No charges, but they had to pay for and completely rebuild and repaint the changing rooms over the next two weekends to better than new. All the time while the old serge sat in the shade with a cold beer watching.
