NC sheriff's deputy uses Corvette to stop speeders

At least one sheriff's deputy in North Carolina won't have any trouble catching speeders.

So fugink what, you have any idea how many states confiscate cars in illegal activities and then use them for pig cars. But why a penis extension? I certainly wouldn’t want it if I were that traffic pig. Gimme’ some real American muscle, anything born before 1970.

Oh good grief, haha..and this will cut down on the number of speeders? Sounds more like a recipe for a drag race, varooom!

ALABAMA JAVELINS HIGHWAY PATROL HISTORY
In the early 1970s the state of Alabama, experiencing an economic crisis, found they could order budget-based patrol cars from AMC. Pony car Javelins equipped with 401 cubic-inch V8s were powerful enough to meet the Alabama Highway Patrols needs and cheap enough to keep the state happy. In 1971 the Alabama Department of Public Safety ordered 71 Javelins with 61 painted Quick Silver Metallic. The remaining 10 were for the investigative unit and varied in color. For 1972 AMC no longer offered a base Javelin, so the ADPS ordered 62 Javelin SSTs. All were painted Admiral Blue Metallic over Stardust Silver Metallic. All highway patrol Javelins were shifted by three-speed automatic transmissions. Borg-Warner had shifting duty in 1971. A Chrysler Torqueflight A727 was used for 1972.

I bet you won't be calling them pigs if you really need them.

Seems to me that only people with nothing to hide have a respect for cops.

what option do we have, pigs or not

[yernogood-]

I have nothing at all to hide and I can't think of a single reason to ever need a pig for anything. What's there to respect?

Your 0-60 time: 6 seconds
His: 3.5 seconds
You 1/4 mile time: 15 Seconds
His: 11.5 seconds

Not real close. In fact you stand just as good a chance of catching a Z06 on your bicycle as you do in an SC 430.

No matter how fast your car is, it is still slower than Motorola

I knew that Pixie was courageous!

Don't feel bad, cops around here are so worthless at driving, they hit people and total their own cars in pursuits. Sometimes they throw it into the ditch or hit an oncoming car just getting turned around.
