i would also say to pull over, you may here cool stories of other guys beating the cops, but it's just a matter of time until they are caught.

You'll never get away, not in a car chase but it would be fun

Running would not be a good option. For one you are putting your life in danger for a little bit of money and trouble, two) you can always outrun the cops but it is impossible to outrun their radios. Just dont do it.......its never worth it

lol... I happened to see a Police Interceptor in action yesterday on my way to Fla to pick up a restrictor plate motor we are working on. I was doing my usual 5 over.... saw him pull out and thought ...... " o0h no... "... he pulled up right next to me and pulled the gentleman to the right of me over....... Was nice to see a non-vic cruiser though

i out smarted a cop once. it was at night and i was on the high i was going about 110 when i pulled up behind a sherrif. he slowed down and so did i, i stayed be hind him and noticed he had a radar facing the back. we slowed down to 50 so i picked it up to 60 because the speed limit was 65. when i passed him luckily a car got behind me, cuz he put his lights on. well after he got behind me i started to try to pull over. well what he didn't see was that there was a car that a was abandoned a little bit up. so i made it seeem like i was about to pul over and got back in the lane. well he couldn;t do that cuz he got stuck behind the abandoned car. he was trying to get back in but there was to much traffic. by the time he got back in hte lane i was already exiting and he never caught me. oh yeah don't run away i did it once from a state trooper going to one of my other jobs but i lucked out cuz i exited the free way and he couldn't, this was like 6 yrs ago though.
