ha! i took a short ride last night after fixing my brake and parking lights, you know, a test run... i have antique car tags so in VA it's supposed to be limited use. car is in race car mode (numbers still on body, trolling for police attention Bahia Red, supertrapp aka no muffler). so i was cruising in traffic in the right lane at a pleasant pace then look in the rear view mirror and see the front of one of fairfax counties finest ... start reviewing in my mind all my excuses and explanations for why i shouldn't walk home. still following me, no flashing lights to pull me over. then he pulls behind the mini-van driving next to me turns on the flashing lights to pull the mini-van over!
well, i did then take the back roads home....
