haha i think that story is funny,
i mean if the cops are on the other side of the road, what are the chances they would catch you. .....
i have thought about this before , i mean it isnt as if you held up a store and then you run from the cops..
like if you saw the cops doing a U turn to give chase, so what if you went down a few side streets and tryed to lose them, i mean there is more chance you would get let off if they caught you..
how can they prove you sped up to get away when they are all they way behind you on the other side of the road, they still have to find a way to get onto your lane, then catch up
no officer i didnt see you all the way back there ??
so its a little differant, yeah it was still dangerous.. but they didnt catch you

And you didn't "have control" of the situation, because if you did you wouldn't be speeding in the first place.

Eventhough I did say if I got pulled over again that I was going to ask the cop if he could smack me around a little and let me go, just didn't feels like it that day!!

at zdays there should be some sort of high speed simulator so people can see how differently a car loses countrol at high speed. dam that momentum. it is possible to recover form basicly any slide or such lose of control the real challenge is to do it in the space alotted. high ways especialy will cars have very very little room so there is not so much catch me road when you mess up. same goes with dirt bikeing in the woods, those trees are dam close and ive seen about three people almost kill them selves on a tree. one even hit two trees in the same crash and fell off a 8ft cliff. ( he was trying to keep up with me.) but i think destiny was totaly in control of the situation. only risk i see here is that some other stupid driver might hit her, but im sure she could avoid the clossion and then flick them off.

I hate peole that like to act all holier than thou when they dont know what actually happened.
I want to start an 'I drove 20 MPH over the speed limit' thread and see how many self righteous indignant morons reply with negative comments.
Then I can just put them all on my ignore list and enjoy the forums alot more!

techincally you dident really run from them in the felony sense of the term, if he had flipped his lights on and you had run, thats another story if you are in california thats strike one. however it seem you more evaded him so he never got a chance to turn his lights on. cool story though, ive run before too, but i dident do the dodge and weave like you did, he was on the other side and i had my detector on MUTE so i see him and im like "ooooh cops, haha i go to pat my passport and the damn thing is goint KA crazy (im doing about 90) the asshoel pops it into revers and does a burnout to go across the bridge so i just ran for the next ramp and exited then hid in a neighborhood... no weaving just exiting. =)

I had to use the weaving technique...if I exited I wasn't sure if I could find my way home...I would have to stop and ask a cop and he would be like hey you are the chick that was just running from me...cuff her!!

In Berkley Michigan I had a cop pull up next to me at a traffic light and ask me if I wanted to race.
I was driving a .060 bored-out 289 cid Mustang with 12.5/1 pistons, crane cam, and headers.
Raced him about 2 city blocks and beat him. I had to stop for a red......he kept going.

I hid from a cop once out on the 280, he was sitting in a blocked off lane that was under construction. Saw him begin to pull out, I was doing like 90, i only kicked it up to 95 and then got off at the next exit, waited 2 minutes and then got back on, oh yeah, mines brand new with 20% tint on all windows (ilegal) and then no plates even though its new, reason enough to pull me over, and it was only like day 2 of my tint, cop would definatly be suspicious of me opening the door on a new car like that hehe
