Im a 17 year old driver with 4 months under my belt with my license. I own a 92, 3.9, 5sp. 4wd dak. I live in the suburbs of upstate ny. Around here there are alot of ricers that just piss me off. I have raced numerous ones and have been sucessfull on several occasions. Not bad for a stock dak. Although, I found out racing can be a bad thing.

The other day I was driving home from my technical school on one of our fun twisty roads with my frined in his 4 bang saturn following me. He began to ride my ass a bit, so i decided to show him up a bit.

So I caught up quick to a blue taurus on a double yellow, I checked the opposite lane and flew by him from 3rd to 4th. I thought hah, and thought nothing of it. Next I looked in my rear view and my friend in his saturn decided to pass the taurus too. Well he just made it by almost clipping a van coming from the opposite direction. I was like, "phew, that was close," then I looked back again and saw flashing lights and my friend in his saturn gettin pulled over by an undercover cop!!!!

I had no idea undercover cops drove taurus' with lights in em. So sure enough I got the hell out of there.

I talked to my friend the next day and he didnt get a ticket, but he did get a huge surprise and a good lecture. I still cant believe how close i was to getting pulled over myself. Passing a cop over a double yellow...sheesh

My friend got 6 tickets that night, and his liscened provocted. Oh and the guy in the F150, he decided to go and follow the cop, and the cop ended up flaging him down and giving him 2 tickets dont knwo why he went down there but ohwell sucks for him... Ive decided to go stricktly show with my truck now and not drive like that anymore scared the crap out of me, and if I do race, Ill keep it on the track. You guys were extremely lucky, I was extremely lucky Thankfully it didnt take something more serious to happen to make me change my driving.

Im sorry that I did seem to upset some of the members. I now relize what a dangerous move that really was. Even though my lane was fine with no signs of others coming, I still endangered the lives of my friends and others on the roads. I was just provocted with showing this kid up but now I know that doing stuff like that could kill me or any innocent victim on the road...

sorry again...

How old do you have to be to learn COMMON SENSE, and then, have the WISDOM to practice it? 17 should be old enough. Even at 17, I knew that I could die. Slow down, use your head, and live a long life.
