Thumbs down Guys beware on LIE 495

So i was driving from LIE 495 couple days ago in the afternoon going West from LIE, when I reached around the Utopia Parkway Exit a white town car (I thought it was a cab at first) drove right behind me and tailgated me for like 2-3 mins... I didn't wanted to rev up because my girl was right next to me. So after 2-3 mins the guy tried to cut me from behind, well he did pass me and was so close of hitting my front then I saw his 5 O lights at the rear windshield, What a fucking flying POS pig. Dude was trying to make me race him or something... And almost caused an accident. Freaking brainless pigs...

sometimes I think they cause more damage then they do good.

I saw a cop yesterday pull a U-ey right infront of a no U turn sign while on the cellphone

Gotta watch out for those DT's driving cabbies... I believe there's at least 5-10 of them that patrol the Manhattan area.
One way to spot them is the compare the Cab tag number and the plate number, both should match, if not

thats nothing bro. i once saw an undercover tailgate a porsche cayenne. when the cayenne moved out of the way to let him pass, the cop pulled him over for not signaling.

I wouldnt say they (pigs) are retards, they are just using some extremely thorough tactic because there are people out there who would go along with his teasing and start a race. Perfect way to catch these people and make sure it doesnt happen again.

I would have to agree. If i really wanted to pull people over i would buy an evo,make it fully catless,put limo tint all around and just pace other boy racer types and rev in a high gear until they take off then pull em over for speeding.

Cause cmon whos not ganna race a loud blacked out evo.

I had a very similar experience when I was younger. I had an Audi TT dropped with big wheels/tires/exhaust. I was 3 blocks from my house and the roads are pretty windy so its fun to drive on them. As soon as I get ont he road there is a car on my bumper. I speed up so that im at a safer distance from him but he keeps on coming. I am so worried that this guy is going to smash into me when I make the turn onto my road that i slow down and stare at my rearview mirror while I turn. He pulls infront of my, turns his lights on and gets me for not signaling when I turned. I was turning ON MY ROAD and the reason I didnt signal is because I was making sure the Jackass didnt hit me because he was trying to ride my bumper to get me to go faster.

Turns out he was a retired captain and couldnt do anything so he called another copper over and the new guy gave me a ticket.

They do way worse than that. I was tailgated by a cop for about a mile once (middle lane) and when I switched to the right lane to let him go by (I hate having cops behind me), he pulled me over for pacing traffic 68 in a 55. I had my cruise control set at 58 the entire time, so it was a bullshit claim. Ended up talking myself out of that one, luckily, but it's still a load of shit when they pull you over and flat out lie to you.
