I'm almost 33 years old and a high school teacher. My most recent act of automotive stupidity was this -

I took the Monte to work last week, and a bunch of students were outside at the end of the school day. They were egging me on, telling me to rev it up, do a burnout, etc. I took off around the corner very gently, then hammered it from a 10mph roll and broke the tires loose, ran it right up to 5K rpms, then shifted nicely into 2nd. Of course, I didn't see the cop parked right across the street. DOH! He came flying up behind me, lights flashing, and pulled me over like 100 ft. from the school. As the students are walking by, I'm thinking "Damn, I'm such an asshat!" Exhibition of speed in a school zone is not a good idea.

The cop was very pissed, but he let me go. I'm guessing he thought it was a 17-y/o student, and not one of the teachers!

too many close calls and too embarrassed of most of them to tell them

[NJSPEEDER]

i got a few, spun my 91rs on rt95 in the snow without hitting anything or getting hit, talked my way out of 53 in a 25 less than a month after i got my license, got caught in a hard rain on rt29 riding on slicks and skinnies(i swear the car got to 90 degrees before i caught it without hitting anything), getting into a screaming match with a cop after he asked how much my car(registered and insured in my name) cost my mom, doing burnouts and holeshots in someone's S10 and getting the tickets reduced to blocking traffic *cough -bill's truck- *cough.........the list goes on and on.
i also am the current record holder for getting all the way across ewing township when i blew by a cop at about 75 in a construction zone (35 over + double points/fines for the work zone) and decided to run instead of trying to say i was sorry.

My story is Philly-related as well. I'll give the longer version:

Back in college some friends and I decided to go out and blow off some steam after the last day of finals. My buddy Phil brought one of his friends along, who is a big car guy (can't remember his name). They pull up in his orange '69 GTO (455 4 speed) and we head to the Chili's on City Ave. We had a few beers and were talking about car stuff, and the guy was saying how he's getting pinging when he's up in the RPM range, so we decide to go out and adjust his timing. We get out the light and such, and after we are done we decide to take a couple short blasts along the back of the Acme to see if the pinging is gone. All seems good, so we head back towards the Chili's to park the car. At this point, 3 cop cars come flying in, one at each nearby entrance to the shopping center. They surround us, two marked, one unmarked. One of the cops gets on the loudspeaker and tells us to get out of the car and keep our hands where they can see them. We have nothing to hide, so we get out and stand there. The cops come forward and search us first, and then the car. We had to empty the trunk, pull the seats up, the whole 9. They hassled us about the tools in the trunk but that was about it. Once they were satisfied, they tell us that they got a call that an armed robbery was going on at the City Line Acme. After a few nervous laughs we tell them that we are just college kids, adjusting the timing on the GTO. They tell us that everything is cool, and we walk back into Chili's and sit down. The other people we were with didn't see any of this so they asked us why we have a glazed look over our eyes. So we tell them, and they all laugh at us and call BS, etc. But in a display of perfect timing, the cops all leave the same way, past the side windows of the Chili's, after which a big display of middle fingers and F-U's came out.

Edit: My nickname was "Dillinger" for a little while after.

Got pulled over doing 140 on the parkway going down to wildwood last year... could have ran sicne it took the cop 2 min to catch up to me parked on the side of the road, but I chose to take my medicine. He gave me a warning thankfully, and i'll never go that fast on a highway again haha.

Too much stupidity, not enough bandwidth. Mine will remain urban (South Florida) legends.

I enjoyed the Mitsubishi Starion, even if it was a Mitsu.

[BonzoHansen]

There have been too many to list, but here is a 5 minute review. Luckily they occur much less often these days. In fact, none of these occurred in the past 3 or so years.
1. A number of O-turns – rain, ice, dry, you name it
2. 130 MPH on tires with steel belts sticking out (found out about the belts 3 days later)
3. Rear wheel cylinders blowing out when coming to a stop for a major road (Bloomfield Ave).
4. Too drunk…nuff said
5. Being pulled over for suspected robbery (bad guy also had red Camaro)
6. 140 MPH for no reason on GSP
7. Throttle sticking wide open – at least twice
8. Outrunning at least 2 officers of the law.
9. Not knowing the guy tailgating at 65 me on the GSP was a cop, so I nailed it and left him in the dust, then got a very dirty stare (lucky for me there was a car stuck in the median)
10. Sleeping while driving on the way to Hunter on the NYSTW at 530 AM. Very lucky the roaod was very straight.
