I got pulled over tonight doing 40 in a 25. The cop, a jolly young fellow and I appreciate that-pulled me over, asked the usual, license, reg, typical ****.
now my speedo isn't working at all, and I didnt bother to tell him as he might write up a citation and demand it fixed within a certain amount of time-which I don't have.
he goes back to his cruiser and I have a smoke while I'm waitin. He comes back to my window revealing a warning ticket.
"do you mind?"
"oh...sorry" (it was almost finished anyway.)
"you know...We don't know what you kids are up to, but the whole car tuning thing is gone way too far, however, if this keeps going on, you and the like, won't."
I didn't catch on at first.
"Beg your pardon?"
"spread the word to your friends. ****'s got a limit. you know?"
I couldn't say I'm not one of them, but I sorta am.
"The ones that you catch are the same ones that ruin the sport."
I guess he was offended...I don't know why. Maybe he took it that I meant that the kids that get caught need to be more careful not to get caught so as not to point out the others?
"Do the limit buddy."
and he was off to dunkin donuts.
It's like racial profiling now. If a cadillac deville goes by doing 50 in a 30 and a celica with chrome rims and a muffler tip trailing behind him doing 40 in a 30, who do you think gets pulled over?
