So I'm an idiot, hit 155 mph today and got caught, car was impounded

[Hurley711]

I was driving to my cousins mountain home in Pennsylvania Poconos. For those of you who know I-476 is a 2 lane expressway and has some long stretches where cops have nowhere to hide, so I had planned to open her up on the way up. I hit 140+ 3 times before running into traffic and than finally I had a nice straightaway with no one in front so I let it rip. Ended up hitting the last line on the speedometer, 155 MPH, previous best was 150, when
I finally backed off. Man my heart was pounding and no sooner did I calm down do I see the lights flashing behind me. Fuck. Nailed by a state trooper who I still don't know where he came from. Had me at 137 when I went past him, had me immediately get out of the car and put me in cuffs and in the back of his car. He was PISSED. I had 2 courtesy police cards and he said that saved me from being locked up. My car was taken and impounded and he made me call my wife and had her drive 70+ miles to pick me up. Man I am fucked, calling lawyer tomorrow to discuss my options. I'm a fucking idiot

Sorry to hear about getting caught and the car impounded.

However, Every man that has a powerful car like that, will take an opportunity to open it up.

You may get lucky.

Good luck.

Dude that sucks. At that speed you should have kept on running

[Hurley711]

Worst part is I've hit 137, 140+ several times including 147 and 151. When I hit 151 I said that was it, then I go and do this shit

"police" and "courtesy" should not be in the same sentence

Actually, there are lots of cops out there that are cool and yet can still do the job.

Not all cops are bad.
