Cop said thanks for stopping and wrote him for 10 over. I had a similar experience as a young and dumb kid. Was racing on the open highway late at night, passed a hidden trooper going around 145. I immediately pulled over, the other guy ran. As I was on the side of the road getting a thorough ass chewing and a ticket for going 14mph over, I heard his radio crackle "yeah, we just got him...". The other guy got to take a ride, I got a minor moving violation for my honesty and not making them chase me. |

Quoted:
You could always put it on YouTube. 
A seven-minute video shot by a speeding motorcyclist as he eluded police could end up costing the rider up to six years in prison when he is sentenced Friday.
Hamza Ali Ben Ali was accused of trying to goad a Westmont officer into a high speed chase while Ali shot video from a camera affixed to his Honda CBR 1000. Ali might have gotten away, if the video hadn’t been uploaded onto YouTube. “It’s almost like it was a game to him – look at how fast I can go,” said State’s Attorney Robert Berlin, who said his office will seek a prison sentence. Ali, 31, of Plainfield was found guilty last month in DuPage County of aggravated fleeing and eluding police and driving with a suspended license. Authorities say the Westmont officer tried to stop the speeding motorcyclist on Oct. 21, 2012, along Cass Avenue. The YouTube video shows a police car, lights flashing, following the cycle into a gas station before the cyclist zooms away. The officer broke off the pursuit but eventually caught up to the cyclist on I-55 before the motorcycle again sped away. There was no license plate on the bike, but the officer saw the rear-mounted video camera. Police suspected footage might get posted on YouTube and, sure enough, video showed up there about two weeks later, which led to Ali’s arrest, authorities said.Tribune  https://youtu.be/FOYYUOFEYF8Needed moar spike strips and grease spots. He got a four yr sentence for this. Granted he had prior convictions. I bet he regrets uploading that video to youtube. Idiot. |

I have been involved in several motorcycle chases over the years. The idiots usually get caught or wreck out and then get caught [ if they live] . A few might get away if they know the area but it's not worth it.

Quoted:
Well, it takes a Dodge Charger srt8 392 approx 30 seconds to go from 0 to 150 (0-60 in 4.2). Police chargers with the regular hemi are significantly slower but let's just say they have a srt8 392 high speed pursuit car for kicks. If bike is already doing 150mph then he is covering 2.5 miles per minute. By my math, by the time the police gets to 150mph, the bike has already put 1.25 miles between himself and the cop car, and this is just if the bike did not accelerate to faster speed. Cop has no chance unless bike stays on same road and cop radio ahead. All considering clear highway as stated in OP. So with that in consideration, if you are on a bike going 150, count to 30 and then turn off, cop won't ever see you. Especially since the cop won't have a srt8 392.... what about the cop coming from the next town down the road? or the trooper who is at the next overpass? or the county deputies approaching from the off ramps? They've got 30 seconds to be in the right place... Around here there is 1 trooper about every 8-15 miles. Towns are spread minimally 5 miles apart. Deputies already on the off ramps have same chance as the original officer. Good luck. I'm not advocating running from the cops but around here, if you're an experienced rider, the cops don't have much of a chance at all. Too many back roads and curves. Plus the no chase policy. |

So... you decide to stretch out your 1000cc superbike out on the freeway, traffic is very sparse, your you're in full riding gear, and you pass a cop doing 150 mph. You see his flashers come one. What would you do? Grab faith and sixth gear? I dunno... At that speed, you are going 20mph faster than their cars go with several miles of clean, clear road. If you could put a few miles of clear road beat when you, you could get away easily, but these days they have traffic cameras tel tell where you got off of the freeway and they will know who you are. They haven't used them to prosecute traffic crimes are undo here, but soon enough they will use them like they do for more serious crimes where they need to track someone. |

Back in 2005 or so a Illinois state trooper tried to get me to admit to running from him when I was parked in a mcds drive thru
I may or may have not been speeding on i74 heading back to Indiana, pulled off the interstate in this small shitdick country town to get some food. The trooper comes flying in behind me while I'm ordering , Put me in the front seat of his car then tried to get me to admit to a bunch of bullshit charges. Only thing he had me on was speeding.

While stationed in Hampton, VA my roommate had a police scanner. One evening we hear it crackle and a voice came on saying. "Dispatch ________, I just clocked somebody going 160 miles an hour." In that slow monotone dispatchers voice the reply came, "Please give license and description." After a pause the officer came back and said, "It was red and it was fast." We laughed for an hour after that.

I went to jail. 145 in a 55 zone driving a Dodge Challenger back in 1979. You can't outrun a Motorola. About $800.00 in fines, after I made bail. The only reason the judge didn't yank my DL was that he found out I was a former Eagle scout and I had some friends that were bad influences.

I tried it as a teen. Spent 4 days in jail over my Christmas holiday.
Out running the first cop was easy, the 4th,5th, and 6th not so much. I tried the get out of sight and say it wasn't me strategy. They arrested me anyway. The first cop had seen where I pulled out of, which happened to be where I worked. They went in and asked if they knew who had just left a blue motorcycle, as there had been an accident. They named me, so I was screwed. I look back on it as a good learning experience, and a funny 'guess what I did when I was young and dumb' story. Spending 4 nights in jail sure wasn't funny at the time though. I don't recommend it. |

triple digits in Oregon =
A new Oregon speeding ticket law stiffened penalties for drivers cited at speeds 100 mph and faster. A conviction carries a mandatory minimum 30 to 90 day suspension in addition to a $1,103.00 fine. This same law also suspends a driver’s license for up to 30 days for motorists convicted of driving more than 30 mph faster than the speed limit. You may receive the harsher fine and suspension due to being caught going over 100 mph. Excessive speed is a factor in about one-third of Oregon traffic deaths and is why the law was passed, to try and slow drivers down with the threat of severe speeding ticket penalties. 1) I don't do +100...never have and sold my bikes that could...

If I'm sitting still and clock you at 150 on a bike, I'm going back to watching Netflix. If you're not a good rider, I'll be along to help EMS scrape you off the blacktop in a few miles. It's risk vs. reward, its going to be more unsafe to the public if I try and catch you at that speed than just letting you go if a traffic violation is all I have on you. If you just robbed a bank or are a suspect in a homicide, you can outrun me - but you can't outrun the radio. Or the Kiowa.

Have you ever seen the tall skinny white State Trooper next to Nick Saban on a Saturday?
I listened to him chase a bike all the way to Montgomery one night. Guy would take off put much distance between the Trooper and himself, he then slows down, the Trooper catches up and away he goes again. MPD would not come out to help, chase called off. |

When he got home, at about 2am, there was a cruiser waiting in front of his house, but facing the opposite direction. He gunned it and sped down the block at about 90 and headed for the next town over. The cops never came back and never messed with trying to pull him over in the future.

To the original question, I wouldn't stop.
Before I tell the following story, let it be known, I was young and stupid. And it is all true! One night out with the fellas, on a state hwy, we were going easily doing 100+. Parked State Trooper took pursuit, we ran. Air unit was on us after about 5 minutes, must have been in the area. Air unit started using its spotlight, we started to stretch our distance from each other and the air unit kept moving the spotlight from one bike to another. I dropped back a bit and killed my lights. (Yes, I did have an ALL OFF switch for my lights.) Found a trailer park, parked my bike next to central air unit. Walked to the playground in the park and started calling my friends. Called my brother, he went to my house and got my truck and trailer. Spent the next 6hrs picking up my friends at various locations. None of us got caught. Again, I was young and dumb. |

He said he lost a cop one time, then pulled over on the side of the road and waived as the cop passed. I always thought this was bs, and don't ride. Can anyone confirm? My brother was a state trooper. He said if you had the tag number you still had to prove who was driving. That would probably be easy if the dumbass pulled over on the side of the road. His car topped out at 130 or 140 something. He was always amazed at the number of people on bikes or faster cars that did not run.

I met a state patrol once while i was running about 130-135ish.
I figured i was fucked any ways but I went ahead and pulled over and waited for him to get turned around and get to me. He cussed me out for a few minutes, went to his car and came back with a ticket for running 29 mph over in a 65 zone so no jail. He cut me a break for not trying to run, told me to enjoy the rest of my ride in a sane manner.
The worse part was I kept thinking he looked familiar so when I got home I looked through my collection of old tickets and found that the same hp had given me a speeding ticket almost 6 months earlier to the day and probably within 100 yards but I was in my car that time.

This is the second time I've seen this in this thread. Fleeing/evading/eluding, which ever one is the least (I guess?), I got when I was 17. No illegal activity prior to, just on private , yet unposted/ungated/very readily accessible public property. A licensed law enforcement officer said halt and my two friends took off. LEO chased them, I stood there for a bit, then started walking back to my truck wondering what the hell was happening. Got "pinched" before making it to the vehicle. Spent the rest of what was left of the night in jail with the fat friend that couldn't climb a fence. Time served the next morning with the knowledge that there are people that are crazy, yet funny in the orange jumpsuit room and some with spiderweb elbow tattoos that will hike their leg and fart real loud when the judge say come to order, and that will make all the orange jump suits laugh. What is this felony for fleeing/evading/eluding some keep speaking of? Should I turn in my CHL? Quote HistoryQuoted:

In my state there is fleeing and attempting to elude (misdemeanor) and aggravated fleeing and attempting to elude (felony). High speeds and willful and wanton disregard for the safety of persons and property will get you the felony. |

I've only been pulled over on my bike once (FZ1). State trooper coming the other direction hit the lights and flipped a bitch after I passed him doing around 75 in a 50 on a 2 lane highway. I immediately pulled over and took my helmet off. He came up and thanked me for not running, and said he was gonna write me a warning, and to slow the fuck down
. I went home after that, figured I used up all of my luck.
Oh, once I was out riding, and some guy on a harley pulled out in front of me and started rowing through his gears, while constantly looking back at me in his mirrors, being a douche. I waited until he got going about 70 and dropped a couple of gears and blew by him, and also a sheriff deputy that I didn't see a few car lengths ahead . Oops. I glanced at my speedo, and it was somewhere around 105 before I rolled off the throttle. I looked over at him, and he was laughing at me, so I took the next right. He didn't follow me, so I went straight home that time too.

CCW/Security clearance/military contractor in California...All of that comes to a screeching halt were I to do some stupid shit like that.
If I suddenly found myself in that situation for whatever ridiculous reason, I guess I pull over as quickly as possible and hope for the best. Quoted:
I'd stop, and offer to suck his dick to get out of the ticket, and if that doesn't work, cry. Huh. More tools in the toolbox...thanks, Swing! |

Turn the lights off. Know how I know you haven't had a street bike since the 70's? |

The bounds of my job end at something we call "probable cause". There's other people out there who deal in "beyond a reasonable doubt". You're still going to jail. Maybe, just maybe I'll let you finish your Hardees. Quote HistoryQuoted:

That, Sir, was an awesome post. |
