Ha I have routinely driven over 155 MPH....

On the Autobahn In 6 years I have been flashed one time for going 6 mph over the speed limit on the country road, but never got a ticket.

Geez cops here pull you over and give you a ticket for going 75, I can't imagine not getting a ticket for going 142.

I was on that road a few weeks ago traveling from Chicago to ND with my dad. That road just begs to be driven hard on. Unfortunately we were in a rented Taurus.

Exactly... WTF? It sounds like he's going to get off with a stern warning from mom and dad.

I don't condone this in any way. Just saying haha.
thats what i was thinking, not so much that he should keep going, but how did the cop even get him to stop, i meen he would have had tog et behind him and turn his lights on, but at that speed it would have been a LONGGGG time before the cop ever caught up to him IF he ever did, can those crown vics even go 140? not to mention that i doubt the cop would be able to see his license plate going that speed, and im pretty sure the dash cams are activated by the lgihts soo....

the current car i drive is limited to about 120, and i ping off that a lot on the highway, im worried about getting a 335 thats limited to 150 because i dont know if i have the self control to not go that fast O_o

You were just lucky. If a cop had pulled the same thing with you, it would be YOU we would be talking about in this thread....
