Chris, I don't mean murder or anything. I mean just some stupid teenage thing that they would arrest you at that moment but wouldn't bother pursuing you.
Answer
Every once in a while you have to get lucky. But it's getting harder and harder everyday.
There have been several times that I've gotten back to my house before the cops could get there and then it was just a matter of not answering the door, pretending not to be home, and so on. But the ONE time that was really cool, in my opinion, was when this "goody-two-shoes" woman in a Lexus thought that I was driving too fast, 70 in a 65. So she got behind me and started flashing her lights and stuff. Which made me speed up to get out of her way but when I pulled to the right lane to let her by she dropped in behind me and kept it up. I looked WAY back in the rear view and saw a tiny red light in the distance behind me. So I punched it and took the next exit. It was a tight twisty road that I had driven on all my life and used to race on it in my younger years so I was pretty much at home. I was doing well at staying ahead but she was doing better than expected so I realized that I was going to have to "lose her" one way or another. So as I skidded around the next turn I saw a driveway to the right. I jammed on the brakes and went up the driveway and looked for a place to duck in where I wouldn't be seen from the road. She raced by so I dropped back to the road and went in the opposite direction at a normal, legal speed, in case the cops were backing her up. I saw no one so I took a turn that took me in a totally different direction than what I was when she first started chasing me and I ended up in another town and I took a side road home and stayed away from the freeway. I had no further problems and never heard about it again. That time I was in a car.
The times when I was on my motorcycle I would go up the same street that was a dead end, whenever I picked up a tail.
There was this ONE driveway that had a path that went thru a hedge and if you angled to the LEFT as you passed thru the hedge you would come out on a side street that was just behind my house. (If you went just to the right you would hit a 4x4 post ... not good). From there I would race to the house and open the gate and put the bike in the yard, out of sight. After a while the cops got smart and they stopped following me up the dead end street but would take the road that wrapped around to my house and try to get there before me, but they were always late. But they did get really close a couple of times. I barely got the gate closed when I heard the skid marks out front. My mom would ask what all the noise was about and I told her that some friends were trying to beat me to the house but I won. Fortunately she never looked outside to see who was there. Whew! And the cops were good sports about it and never made a big deal of it, which they could have if they wanted. It got to be a game but I eventually stopped doing it so that they would not have to go to the "next level".
I also took an off ramp once and hid out under an overpass. When the cops went by with lights and sirens on the freeway, I pulled back out and went the opposite direction.
And one time on my motorcycle I ducked into a side street and removed my jacket and put my helmet on the back of the seat (no helmet law back then) and rode home in the cold. The cop was running lights and siren and passed me going the opposite way but never recognized me because my shirt was a different color than my jacket and I had no helmet like I did before. (I got lucky).
But, to keep the police happy, I MUST state that nowadays you should NEVER do this. Just pull over and take your lumps and tell the truth. I have had the police let me go just because I told them the truth.
Fortunately I NOW live in an area where everyone drives 90 - 100 mph on the freeway and the cops really don't care. In town the speed limits are usually around 50 - 60 on most major streets and everyone drives at 70 - 80. The police are cool about it because everyone's doing it and the police have a lot of stuff to do and don't have time to worry about trying to get everyone to slow down. Amazingly we have very few accidents caused by speeding, and those are usually the snowbirds and out-of-towners who can't handle the fast pace. When I first moved here I was amazed that everyone was "racing around" b/c the average age here is 77, believe it or not.

What should I take to basic training?
Dracy
I'm going to basic at Ft. Sill Oklahoma and I keep hearing different things to take with me and what to leave home. My good friend is in the military and basically told me to bring the clothes on my back, debit card, cell phone and charger, and cut your hair the day before you ship out. Anyone got any other helpful advice I sure would appreciate it. Oh and my recruiter doesn't know how to pick up a phone when ever I call. Thanks
