I can't wait to hear your reaction to the Tail of the Dragon. I was there last year and was totally blown away by the road. Don't even try running from a cop there, I've heard they use helicopters and a car's top speed averages around 45 MPH. Don't worry too much, though, on TOTD the big thing they bust you for is crossing the yellow line; way dangerous when you're sharing an extremely twisty road with motorcycles and Winnebagos.
So I guess any young black girl is liable to hear "Are you Destiny??" at ZDayZ this year
See ya!

That's it: I'm packing my bags and moving to Italy to be a Polizia! Cops in America are really getting riped off!

Also, you're not required to pull over the moment a police car is behind you. All you are required to do is acknowledge that you know the officer is behind you, and that you intend to pull over. So, if you turn on your signal and acknowledge him/her then you can drive to the next exit and pull into a gas station if you feel safer doing that. With all the rapes and murders from fake police officers lately then it will be justified.

if the cops call off the chase all the better. isnt that why i ran...to get away?

Ban me from the forums if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly sure that he meant you're never going to outrun a police radio. If the officer stays with you, you won't... ever.

i have a feeling you are a little younger and posibly think very highly of police officers because you thought they were cool when you went threw the dare progam. is this a posiblity.

the cop must go quicker than you to catch up, they cant even match my speed. ive been drive stuff sence i was three. and always been pushing the limits of the vehicles that i drive. one thing very important to fast driving in the country is to drive 2 notches below your limit. that way there is plently room for mistake. im shure their are much better drivers out there than me, but if your limit is hirer than most then you can drive above others limits. i personaly dont think im that good of a driver i can always be better, but right now i do know that i can out run a cop.

The statement "You can't outrun a helicopter" does not mean that you won't get out of the helicopter's site, but once the helicopter is chasing you you're also tagged with video surveillance. Unless you consider yourself a very lucky individual, if a helicopter is above you and you don't pull over chances are you'll be arrested in the days to follow.
Regardless, running is childish and 'not the cool thing to do'. I have seen one too many chases end in death or serious injury (many years with the fire department) and in the long run it's not worth it. Having fun on the curves is fine, but putting someone else's life in danger is an entirely different level.
To make an analogy of the situation; you're the abortionist and I'm the bomber. We'll agree to disagree.

On a curvy road, the helicopter is going to be keeping up with you just fine, and two steps ahead of you if need be.

and to get out of a helocopters sight can be easy. vallyes with lots of towers and wires running along them are very dangours to fly low in a place like that.

I know I'm new to this forum, but this kid is giving people from Ohio a bad name with his idiocy. I live in Columbus and know quite a few members of the Columbus Police force from riding motorcycles. You will not get away from a Police helicopter in a car. Even on a bike it is very difficult. On a motorcycle you need toggles for the lights and in a car, you aren't going to get away...that's the bottom line. I also find it completely irresponsible of you if you are actually running from the cops. You are putting me, my family and the people I care about in danger with your stupidity.

oh and by the way i think im turning a new leaf over the past year ive been doing more resurch on legal stuff than running. im finding that it is easyier to fight it in court. you still have to pay court fees though but i think its a better bet. but when i do run it very very rair and only under sertain sercumstances that i do the classic sytle run. and even in the worst case senerio they only last at most 30 seconds and im gone. but most of the time its just like. uto that cops coming for me. *turn on side street floor it turn again and park, get out of car and walk in to building*

The cop had been circling up and down the road and he saw me pull out and pulled me over. He let me off without a ticket though
