ok, serioulsy I don't get it. For the past year, I've been getting tailed by cops. Not for speeding, or drunk driving or reckless driving or anything. just for driving. yeah, i'm not kidding. It doens't happen often but enough for me to notice and know when it's gonna happen. I'm a pretty good driver, I don't speed that much, I have never gotten a ticket, I just drive to school and back.

What happens is I'd be driving like normal going speed limit and all the sudden a cop would be behind me. I know they're looking at my car. I can see them in my mirror. DUH! so they're on their computer looking up my history already, and then they'd follow me around for at least three or four blocks trying to pull me over for something. the first time, the cop got lucky cuz my license plate lamp was out. but, seriously he followed me for like a mile trying to find something wrong like, huge exhaust or neon lights or something, anything. and when he couldn't he just pulled me over for that.

this has happened at least four or five other times this past year, just they couldn't stop me for anything so they'd back off.
Jump to TONIGHT. I have a project due tomorrow and working late at school with the girly. I take her back to her apartment, then head on home. I stop at a stop light in front of the Police Department. All the sudden I see headlights turn on and a cop cars comes out the parking lot and comes behind me. I see him check his computer and then continue to follow me. I make a turn and stay in the middle lane. I need to get to the right lane but he's there and he won't let me pass. He wants me to overtake him BUT! to do that, i'd have to do at least 35 in a 25, enough to get pulled over. I"m smarter than that so i go 30 and he's head to head with me.... WTF! so i slow down get right behind him and since he can't do nothing, he turns off and goes another way. then i head home pissed off.

So, are our 6th gens REALLY cop magnets? or does someone just have it out for me? I mean, if you look at my pics in my profile, it's basically stock! only thing that is flashy would be the TOM's lip and roof spoiler. and those are OEM/JDM parts!!! I mean I'm no ricer, so WTF.
