Well, it starts with me driving on 294 N going back home after dropping off a friend. I'm driving on the left lane with the music blaring and driving around 85 mph. Now if you've ever been in the car with me on the highway.... I'm a crazy lane changer but don't normally speed significantly. Just enough to not get caught. Well I'm blazing by all the cars right now and in my own little world. After glancing in my rear view mirror, I noticed a cop lane hopping about 3-4 cars behind me. I really didn't think twice of it, IDK I think the music blocks your thinking, but whatever. So I'm still flying past everyone and all of a sudden, I glance behind me and there the cop....slowly catching up to me. At this point, I'm like OK cut it out and slow the hell down. So I drop to like 65-75 cant remember exactly. The cop just kept getting closer....and closer... and closer.... until he was literally on my bumper. I'm like WTF? So I try and look at his face and hes doing all sorts of Yoga movements in the car and acrobatics.. Apparently hes trying to signal something to me. So at this point I'm completely confused... and just at this point realized that I'm getting pulled over for speeding.... Wow...

So apparently at this point I could tell he was frowning from the curved lines appearing on his forehead (possibly slightly pissed off?) So he eventually turns on his lights and siren and I think to myself.... Wow... This guy must be a rookie... He finally found the button for the siren! So I pull over to the right shoulder with him hopping with me. So we stop and he stays in the car or whatever for like 5 minutes and then finally gets out. The funny thing is... that little flashlight they have on their side of the car, he turned it on... When the sun was outside and the thing was pointlessly lit. I'm almost laughing at this point. So he comes up to my window and I decided to play stupid. Might as well enjoy getting my first REAL speeding ticket..(The others I totally think I shouldn't have gotten... they were just racist cuz I'm a brown guy in a white car) He knocks on my window and I pretend like I just noticed him.
me: "Hi Officer"
Officer: "License and registration"
Pulled them out and handed them to him.
me: "Something wrong Officer?" (So original =P)
Officer: "Do you have any idea why I pulled you over?"
me: "Uhhh.... O have no idea Officer, I've never really been pulled over before in 3 years" (Lie...)
Officer: "You see that thing right there?" ( points at speedometer)
me: " Yes sir, Thats called the speedometer, tells you your speed"
Officer: "Very funny, how old are you?"
me: "I believe it says it on my license in your hand but I believe I'm 18"
Officer: "Well Mr. --- ---, would you care to enlighten me on which lane you were driving on?"
me: "Left lane Sir, which is the reason I think we have this misunderstanding."
Officer: "No, I don't believe there is any misunderstanding here"
me: "Then what's the problem officer?"
He tilts his head and I swear, He tossed my license and insurance card into my car.
Officer: "The problem is that, when you drive in the left lane on a highway, DRIVE f**k FASTER!!!"
He walks back, gets into his car, slams the door, peels out leaving me in a ball of smoke, turns on his siren, and blows through traffic.
I'm sitting there for 5 minutes going W........T........F....
