I thought smugglers were supposed to avoid cops.
What heroic things were the trafficked heroines doing?
Audi RS7. Nice car.
That story doesn’t give much detail, but it sounds like he hit 187 during the chase; that wasn’t the reason they initially tried to pull him over. I’m assuming they tried to pull him for a more routine traffic violation, he fled, and did 187 while running from the cops.
I was expecting a Maserati, but I guess those only do 185.
Suzuki Hayabusa bike does 185 and costs around $14k. Lots more bang for your buck
Not a good choice for volume drug smuggling, tho.
Pet Peeve of mine is when people mis-use the expression, “Drive it like you stole it!” to indicate beat the hell out something or tear it up.
It means the opposite. Don’t ask me how I know this.
I bet he loses his license.
at least we know how he afforded the car
There was a retired guy who ran drugs up to Midwest in a pickup. He did it for 10 years before he was caught at 87. Clint Eastwood made a movie of the story,
On the other end of the spectrum:
With any luck it will be the police, sheriff, highway patrol or the DEA’s nice car now.
I think what they’re referring to is joyriding - stealing a car, driving it really fast, and then ditching it.
I do 187 mph on my way to work.
If it’s pronounced “high abuser”, maybe he thought that would give the game away.
Then he won’t drive.
Yeah, that’s the point. Exactly what you do not want to do in a stolen car.
reminds me of the joy ride in Ferris Bueller’s day off
The guy is lucky it wasn’t a Delorean.
a guy in LA had a really bad wreck in a $1 mil Ferrari. Driver had only minor injuries. One cop said I guess for a million bucks you get a great safety system
