To some extent he is, but he's also the guy I've watched run up on someone's ass at 90 and flash headlights and in one instance briefly flash his klaxons. I know he wasn't responding to a call because he'll calmly sit in line on the exit ramp afterward.

There aren't many perks for being a cop. This is one.

It's more than six months man. I believe I told the story of my Delaware State Trooper who stopped me and charged me with five offenses? Speeding, lane change without signal, following too close, aggressive driving, and a cumulative reckless driving for the first four charges?

I called up my cousin who is very high up in DSP and got it wiped at the courthouse. That trooper was livid and I felt fucking great. :D

My cousin said the dude does people like that all the time. Those five charges literally came from a douchebag pickup truck speeding up to block me from entering the road at an onramp so I snuck in about six inches behind him and then did a Cale Yarborough slingshot. It was AWESOME!

:lol: Did you have DE tags? Must have thought you were from NCC. I got pulled over once on 113 and I actually dropped where I worked at the time and he let me go.

Yep I remember Werth going to jail.

The best thing in your favor in VA is that there are so many damn people and so many bad drivers that it's hard to stick out.

No, I had Virginia plates at the time. That's another thing my cousin explained. Somehow they get extra federal funds by stopping out of state drivers. I don't remember the exact details. Delaware is a fucking revenue racket state. I don't deny it.

Besides being dicks to people and not worrying about them being able to defend themselves without you arresting them on some bullshit charges? If you have a power complex, being a cop is a natural position for some people (not all cops).

I'm pretty sure if the guys' supervisor knew he was using his blue lights to clear a path for him to get to work it wouldn't go over very well, but I'll defer to CID on that one.

Okay,
You got me...
Now I'm interested in the story om the bike

1) Did you purchase it out of country
2) Do you haul it form country to country
3) What exactly kind of bike is it

Can't wait until we're all riding in self-driving cars. Then we don't have to worry about this kind of stuff. We will be obeying all the motor vehicle laws.

I drove one and changed my mind. I like to put shit on the bike and Indian 1) doesn't have a lot of aftermarket shit I can bolt on myself and 2) feels like a Victory ( which it is, basically)

I just dropped 30k on a Street Glide Special (blacked the whole thing out and added a V&H exhaust system) and I'm picking it up in the next week or so. Gonna take it to SE Asia
