Default Trying to get arrested...

I don't know what got into me today. Lord have mercy.

My buddy got a 325 BMW from a relitive and had a transmission put in it. It was driving in limp mode and he thought the tranny was bad and asked me to check it out. I jumped in the car, drove it around 4 miles and told him that I thought it did not have a 1st and was starting in 2nd. I offered to scan the car because the dash was lit up like a christmas tree.

So I scan the car with my ScanGauge and it had a P0735 code. On Volvo's I think that is something like a speed sensor on the tranny, may be the same thing on the bimmer so I reset it. I jump back in the car and now 1st is working. Since I have some low end torque I decide to take it on the highway and try to get the code to return. I take off like I own the city, my drivers license in MY CAR, no plates on this car, I'm driving like I'm trying to drop the tranny on the ground, and I'm DWB. Didn't think nothing of any of it until I handed them the keys back.

Thank you Lord for not letting me get pulled over.

Driving While Black. In some areas it's more risky than driving drunk.

Ahahahaha so true got a great story for that one. I go to a private all boy highschool in Dallas and had a friend who was from Kenya, he is 6'7 and 300lbs and now plays linebacker for OU. Anyway he was driving his friends isF (friend in the car) in Highland park (extremely wealthy area) and got pulled over. The Cop tried basically tried to convince the owner of the car that his friend was trying to steal it, and BBG (Kenyan) still got the ticket.

That's funny. Reminds me of that scene in Men in Black II when J is showing K the new car, and theres a guy that pops out of the steering wheel to look like someones driving the car on autopilot. Will Smith says 'It came with a black dude, but he kept getting pulled over'
