Either I met the nicest Z loving cop on Earth or I'm just that slick :-)

Hehe, I'm sure the joke helped a lot

I got clocked at 130mph(in my 350Z) late one night on the 15 when I used to live in Vegas. I was also a little buzzed. Anyway I saw a car on the side of the freeway waaay ahead of me with its lights on. So I dropped down to 70 mph way before I got up to it, just in case it was a cop - and it was. My heart dropped to my stomach as soon as I could clearly see it was a patrol car. Seconds later, his lights flash, and he was on my ***. I kid you not, I have never prayed to God like I did that night. I was drunk going 130 mph, I knew I was going to jail and getting slapped with a DUI, life was over. To make a long story short it went down like this...

(Me sitting in the car desperately praying to God if he got me out of this one, I would never speed again)
Cop: Do you know how fast you were going?
Me: About 70 mph.
Cop: No, way back there.
Me: (I knew I was busted so I said) Over 100 mph officer.
Cop: I clocked you at 130mph
Me: Really? you can clock me way back there?
Cop: Yep. How fast have you taken this thing?
Me: (That caught me off guard, so I was confused, but I didn't want to incriminate myself anymore)Umm...officer I know I'm in trouble and I don't want to get myself in anymore trouble.
Cop: No, seriously how fast? you won't get in trouble.
Me: (I was even more confused now so I just told him) I've taken it up to 150.
Cop: Wow, that's fast. Where do you live?
Me: Next exit.
Cop: OK, I'm going to give you the max speeding ticket without paying additional fines (I think that's 10mph over the limit) and go straight home.

I swear when that cop walked away I heard the Hallelujah song playing! And I stuck that ticket on the back of my door so I would see it everyday I walk out.

I unknowingly led a Highway Patrol officer on a high speed chase for 10 miles. The report straight up says that the only reason he ever caught me was because I slowed down to 75 when I finally came to a point where I wasn't the only car around. It says something along the lines of "Maintaining speeds of over 140 MPH, I was not able to close the gap between myself and the suspect". Once I got to a point where I was coming up to traffic, I slowed down.

He finally caught up to me, and hit the lights. He asked me to get out of the car, and I thought I was going to jail for sure... He asks if I've ever been pulled over, and I told him yes. I had 1 criminal speeding ticket (20 MPH over). I rarely drove this car, so I didn't have my proof of insurance with me, and the registration was expired by like 4 days. He runs my ID, and gives me a reckless driving ticket. He said that he could have done either a criminal speeding or reckless driving, but going back in front of a judge for the same exact thing looks pretty bad, so he gave me the reckless driving. No tickets for the insurance or registration. He technically should have taken me to jail, but he didn't. I haven't had a ticket in 5ish years.

Oh, and it was a Civic.
