When a cop is beside you...what do you do?
I am just asking this question, cuz I want to know what other 'G' drivers do when you are in traffic or just at a light and all of a sudden a Cop/PIG pulls up next to you or right behind you.
The reason why I'm asking this question is b/c yesterday a mustang, spyder and myself were all going down 28 and we see this Cop and we all surround him at a light and he looks over at us and starts typing into his computer (checking plates)...Man did we drive slow and being my tint is below VA law, all my windows were down
So what do you do? Do you act like the model citizen or just look at him as another driver?

I look at him as another driver.....I actually go about 5-6 mph faster then posted limit, just to show him I have nothing to be scared of. Sometimes I will not fully gun it off the line, but I launch in a semi-aggressive fashion just to beat him off the line.

If it's the LAPD, I'm the model citizen. Hell I've been pulled over just for not having a front license plate and I don't have tinted windows.
On the freeways, if CHP is present, then I'm the model citizen of course. If LAPD or the Sheriff are on the freeways, then I act like their other drivers. I don't punch it or do anything stupid, but I'm not as concerned.
Sheriff's have never bothered me.

if a cop is beside me i whip out the desert eagle and put 2 in his noggin...
on a serious note, i dont know how some of you get away w/ going 5-10 over next to a cop...there are always those situations when a cop gets on a highway and sits in the slow/far right lane going EXACTLY the speed limit (55MPH)...he sits and waits for the first man/woman to nudge past him at 57-60mph....its an ego thing. as long as the laws going 55MPH nobody can pass him..and thats when you'll notice traffic backing up.
funny story a few years ago when i was in college a buddy of mine wanted to test this out. we made a bet while driving next to a cop on the highway (he was going EXACTLY the speed limit and nobody DARED to pass him or even nudge up to him...) that if you SLOOWLY nudge and pass that the cop wouldnt really care or bother pulling you over. well he slooowly nudged up and ever so slowly passed and had about 1/2 car length and he started chuckling cause he thought he had won the bet. As soon as he got 3/4 to a full car length on the po po...lights came on, swerved over 3 lanes and pulled him over....i had the last laugh...
cops dont need to clock you, they can set a pace and catch you as well..

I know I told some of you guys this story. I was going down 270 and a cop was in the front of a big pack. I put myself on cruise at 58!! 50 freakin 8. He gets on his loud speaker saying to slow down or else he'll give me a ticket. So gheeey. He's just chillin in the 2nd lane going 55. Who does that?
