My friend hits his flashers and dialed 911 told the dispatch he didnt recognize the type cop trying to pull him over and he was afraid to pull over (hijack the load)
within minutes he had 3 state troopers there pulling over the local cop. My buddy kept driving till he found a safe place to get off the road, The state troopers followed with the local cop who eventually apologized for trying to pull over a placarded load in traffic. My buddy is a little nuts but I think I would have kept driving too, some places are just not safe to stop...wonderman

I've had one 4-wheeler do that to me on I-76 in CO. The cop was changing a tire for a woman, and I moved over to the left. As soon as I did, a 4-wheeler came out from behind me and started passing on the right. As we went by the cop and the woman, the 4-wheeler was about at my drives... And, the spare tire (or the flat one, I don't know which) rolled out into the right lane. The 4-wheeler hit it, lost control, went off the road into the weeds, and ended up on it's side.
When I stopped to see if they were ok, the cop smiled at me and said I could go. But when he was talking to the folks in the 4-wheeler, his face was bright red, and the veins in his neck were sticking out. I'd like to have been a fly nearby and know what he had to say.
