EXIT Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 This was a bit odd: Was driving home last night at 1am along Albany Hwy (60 zone) doing 75 when I noticed a car coming up behind me in the right lane. Didn't think much of it, and kept going. After a while, the car changed into the left lane, came up beside me and that's when I realised it was a copper! Doh! I was still going 75 and was waiting for him to pull me over, but he just slowly accelerated and drove off... Phew! (guess he just couldn't be bothered or maybe he was on his way home) Weird how sometimes you get nailed for just doing 6 over and other times (eg. 120-something on Old Coast Road!) they do nothing! Anyone else been let off the hook ? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostzor Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 Yeh that has happened a few times to me. Just when u think their gonna pull u over they dont. Trick is to slow down easy when they pull up behind u they are usually speed checkin so if u stomp the brakes they will know easy. BTW: he coulda got u for riding the right lane:rolleyes: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/#findComment-93594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
summoner Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 right lane law only applies to roads 90kmh and over. Copper gave me warning for it once after pulling me over to compliment me on my exhaust haha Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/#findComment-93608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostzor Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 How this for a funny but close one. I was going through winthrop av/ stirling hwy near UWA and the light turns orange so i think waht the hey and go it. Drive down stirling and onto the freeway and turn off on canning then start going down kintail road and WHAM look in the rear view and low and behold a pig car right there. Apparently he had to chase me all the way from UWA. All i can say is what a moron i wasnt goin that fast and it was an EB for gods sake. Thought that was worth a tell seeing as i laughed all the way home and dam near in his face.:lol: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/#findComment-93868 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozzle Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 dont stomp on the brake - obviously they will see the brake light bring up the hand brake gently Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/#findComment-93870 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSIKO Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 if you wanna rig up a switch, connect it to your rear numberplate light, hope they haven't seen the plates already, and they can watch as the back of your car dips and you screech off into the yonder hmm...maybe not you might end up on that polair program on access my h/brake doesn't work properly so I always pull that up to slow (unless of course full brakes are needed) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6235-lucky-escape/#findComment-93919 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyDragon Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Bizzare incident i remember was when i was in my old R30 a couple of years back. coming down ranford rd near canningvale, a dark green vt pulled up beside me with pursuit rims, i looked over at him when he went past (sure enough he was a cop). He then looked at my car and floored it! so as a joke i did aswell! he then kept booting it until we reached a set of lights where he turned right, when i went passed him (by this time i had slowed to the speed limit), he just looked at me with a smirk on his face! i thought to myself - draggin' a cop! wtf!!?
