<VV> Speed on Public Highways

[moonpie8n at comcast.net]

          105mph.  coming  out  of  Tappahannock,VA.  at  5:00am  , back  in  the '70s.  Goin  to  get  parts  a  Lauterbach's  shop. The  officer  was  not  very  understanding,when  I  told  him  I  was  in  a  hurry. Took  me  6  months  to  pay  the  fine [payment  plan].  MY  foot  lost  considerable  wieght  after  that  one.

Smitty can appreciate the distance in this story 

One cold winter morning, ( A Sunday @0520) after working all night in the 
Norfolk City Jail, I jumped into my 140 PG 65 monza (1/2 tank premium, 1/2 
tank 110LL Avgas) and STOMPED on it. By the time I got to the short bridge 
on I-264 the needle was approaching 100.  Nobody on the road. 

However, The Trooper told me I "SUCKED THE STICKERS" off the side of his car 
when I went by him.  He admitted he was dozing on the side of the road when 
I went past. 

Luckily for me, I had rolled multiple sets of fingerprints for all of the 
troopers, and I got away with a "never F'n do this again" from him.  I have 
driven from Norfolk to Petersburg (90 miles) in 60 minutes in a police 
car---but ONLY once.
