Talked my way out of a ticket
Man I feel so lucky. Got behind a tractor-trailer hauling garbage. Liquid was leaking, out I could feel it hitting my face. I rolled on and passed him wide open about 85 then slowed back down. When I was slowing down a cop came around the curve ahead. Clocked me doing 77 in a 55. He asked if I knew my exhaust and high bars were illegal. Crap! I told him the law about the bars was a little gray and the pipes are not that loud.Then I apologized for the speed and told him about the leaky trash truck and said don't you smell this crap all over me that leaked out. He just laughed andwalks back to the car with my DL and insurance. A few minutes later he is walks up and tells me to take it easy on the gas and next time just stay way behind the trucks.
Damn, I feel lucky today although I had to have the wife bring a change of clothes to work. F-ing trash haulers!

No sniff test. You really could smell anything, but I said it to hoping he would think it. The trucks haul trash from Atlanta to our backwoods county so no telling what the hell was leaking out of it. Felt greasy...hopefully just some old fast food grease and nothing worse.

GB...pretty nasty stuff sounds like. The wife and I were in our car years ago. Got stuck behind a septic truck. Yup ~ had to run the car through the wash on the way home. Saw one of those the other day so I pulled over and waited a few minutes before I continued.

I came up behind a semi carrying a load of hogs last summer. I could smell it for 2 miles before I caught up with him. There were hills and curves and no way go get around it. The truck finally turned off on a different highway. Nasty.
