anyone get caught for streetracing goin 100 mph+?

[publicenemy137]

If so how much was the fine and did you get thrown in jail for a day? i heard if you go above wreckless and a certain point they charge you by the mile per hour, not sure. Also did they restrict/suspend your license after that?? Street racing is fun but I'm so paranoid that when I am going to go over 90 mph the cops will catch me and I will be in a deep shithole

I think it depends on the speedlimit. In my area( not sure about others) if you double the speedlimit, its a felony and you go to jail... now if you get on the interstate and get caught doing 115 in a 70, I think its just a hefty fine, but there wouldn't be any jailtime involved.

I was pulled over by a motor cycle cop for doing 90 in a 35 on the street. First thing he asked me while walking up to the car was "Do you want to go to jail, boy!?". He was ... uhm... slightly pissed. I said "No sir!" and he said "If you tell the truth and don't bullshit me I'll let you go, how fast were you going?" "90", "What was the speed limit back there?!" "35", "Have a good day, beautiful car, don't speed like that ever again!"

WHEW

I get off of every pull-over because of the car... old cops in their mid-life crises get off on old muscle cars.

I've been pulled over 4 times in the last year... not one ticket.

1st time - 55 in a 50 (he just wanted to talk about the car I'm pretty sure)

2nd time - 75 in a 45 on the street. He gave me a warning and again, complimented the car

3rd time - motorcycle cop. Thought I was gonna get time, ended up with a compliment

4th time - "Pulled over" by an undercover cop in a white taurus. He saw me showing off my new "unofficial 0-60 time" infront of my girlfriend. Asked me why I would "do such a stupid thing". I responded with "'Cause I'm stupid?" Wasn't a good response... but I laughed anyway. He proceeded to ask me if him calling out a cop car would make my day. I just shrugged. Stupid... would turn into a word against mine type of thing.

cops seem to hate imports more than domestics (most of em are white males who are discriminatory). So far all of my friends who drive imports have gotten tickets and the cops have shown no slack whatever and try to book em for the maximum amount of infractions they can. (case in point my friend who was drivin a 240 got pulled over for a loud exhaust and gutted cats, another one b/c he was going 33 in a 25, sis went 70 in a 55). While my friend in his firebird speeds to try to make a right, oversteers and goes over the damn curb, gets nothing. Cop let him off, he said "I know how fast these things can be, I had an older V8 stang" then my friend was like "uh, i got a V6..." Cop still let him off.


All I know is it seems like domestic owners get off a lot easier than import owners, and cops seem to be meaner towards import (or persons of another race) and try to get all the offenses they can

Dunno... I didn't think it was a domestic thing overall... 'cause some of my friends have been ticketed in newer domestics. Also known import guys who have been let off or ticketed.

Not pointing fingers or insulting imports... (just the owners) but I see more rice (as in, actual slow rice with huuuuuge wings) swerving in and out of traffic and being asses 'cause they've just seen 2 fast 2 furious than I do guys in old muscle cars or domestics driving like lunatics. I'm sure they're out there... but I see more rice being stupid than anything else.

Clean imports that I've seen around here don't mess around though... and hence don't get into trouble. The crummy ricemobiles just give everyone a bad rep. It's a shame.

Imma agree on that. I always see that idiotic Cavalier with the exhaust that tries to win size over the wing getting pulled over after trying to do a stunt in f&f or 2f2f.

I was doing 110 on 880 once heading towards Oakland when I came up on this White Camaro. So I was thinking, "Hmm, maybe he'll give chase and we'll have some fun!" Well, I changed lanes and just as I was about to blow past him goin 40+ over the speed limit, I saw what appeared to be a thin ski rack with pretty red and blue lights on it! Once It clicked that I was about to be buried knee-deep in shit if I didn't slow down, I got on my brakes pretty hard. And as I sloooowly pulled past the camaro, that cop gave me the dirtiest look ever.

After that, I stopped speeding for about two days....

So yea, don't blow the doors off of cars on the freeway. Not good.

On a side note, Police in my area have started using Corvettes, Camaros, and Dodge Intrepids(?) as Interceptors. You Gotta watch out for multiple shapes now when speeding.
