Well good thing here is that in my area, cops only use chevy vehicules...except for maybe 1 or 3 out of 50 cop cars that are either beetles or an SUV which they ainly use for promo

watch out for DT(detective cars) these are never marked but arent that hard to spot. They always have window tints and are usually white or black. Most of the time they have a few antenas wich are a dead give away. The easiest way to tell is the license plate, here in NY they have K or L than the number or laters, and under everything they say official. These can be any kind of car and really fast ive seen a black GTP and a white Z28 here on Long Island as well as many others (including a taxi cab!!!).

Well where I live they past a law if you get caught street racing you go straight to jail, you get a ticket, and you get your car impounded. Well one night I was being stupid and I raced this other car from a stop light, after that I turned onto the same street as he did and chased him and I was weaving in and out of traffic at about 60 and the speed limit is 40. I pulled into the right lane to get behind him and I see this car swerve in right behind me and I see that its a cop so I'm like oh crap the cop flips on her lights and pulls me over. I'm thinking I'm going to jail she comes up to me and says WTF is your problem and took my license checked it came back and said if I ever catch you doing that again I will throw your ass in jail. So I think wow I'm gonna get off with just a ticket but no I got off without a ticket. Since then I have been terrified to race anybody, that experience has taught me a lesson that its not worth going to jail over.

possibly a the dumbest question ever...but exactly what is a police interceptor, i mean what do they do or what can they do???

[-Jayson-]

police interceptor is a cop car, got flash lights and loud siren. When then get behind you with those things on you need to pull over to the side of the road. usually means you were doing something illegal in your car. Most are Frod Crownvics.

Well, i wasn't in mph i was in km/h but i was caught doing 97 in a 50 zone blowing the doors off a 4 banger '86 Accord automatic.

The only ticket i was ever pulled over for, 254 bucks if i remember right. I was actually going faster then '97 when he pointed me out, good thing he didn't keep clocking me!

[Black Monte 95]

In wisconsin if you get caught doing 25 mph over the speed limit the cop takes your license on the spot and you get a ride home in the cop car. Not to mention the 170+ dollar fine. Most cops around here drive crown vic's, impallas, or intrepids.

[landyacht]

I should add i had 3 other people with me and still winning!

The result in Alberta (where i was when i got the ticket) is if you're doing double the speed limit or more and the fine is at the cop's discretion and your license is cut in half.

Then they tow your car, you have to re-take your driver's test, pay all the fines and you have 4 of 6 points on your license.

Me, i got away with 2 points and the fine.

The joys of being younger and a little more foolish!!

[streetrcr45]

wait...so police interceptors can pull you over???...i see them all of the time, with the little "police interceptor" badge in the bottom right of the trunk on their crown vic... i'm always speeding past them because i wasnt aware that they can pull me over. So they can pull you over if your speeding???

[Igovert500]

any cop can pull you over, even off-duty(I think) it doesn't matter what they are driving.
As far as racing, down here they ticket you for as many infractions as possible, fine the hell out of you, can suspend you license, and impound your car, and take you to jail. It is really up to the cops discretion. If you are at street races, they can do all the same punishments just for watching the races.

[drag1320neon]

when my car was impounded for street racing, they gave me a choice of 30 day impoundment, or reckless driving with intent to harm an officer. fuck that shit, charge me 900, and ill pick up my car next month

Yes an off-duty cop can pull u over. I think thats the reason why I didn't get a ticket or go to jail because the cop was off-duty. Lucky me
