No s2ks in my story sorry... actually just two shitty cars but its got a good ending (for me)

I was out for a drive and keeping a steady 75 down a fairly empty road - 4lanes... i passed a car and returned to the slow lane, about as soon as i did I see this guys headlights coming up quick... they shift to the other lane and he is on it. I have only a 4cyl... ahem.. i mean a family sedan 4cyl , so I don't street race but I sped up a bit to keep up with him, and now we're aproaching 95 and he's getting pretty far ahead and we're coming up on traffic... a car in the slow lanes starts to switch lanes and he has to nail the brakes to keep from hitting him. I gradually slow down to about 60 and still a few carlengths behind everyone... once the car gets out of the way he's off again but considering how close this was I just let him go hoping he'll take it easy. About a mile down the road some flashing lights come up in the rear view and I think "well shit, we're both screwed" and I promptly get in the slow lane and prepair to beg. To my amazement the cop passes me right up and nabs the other guy whos probably a quarter mile ahead of me by now. They both pull into a gas station at an intersection and I get stopped by the light at the intersection... both guys in this car are just eyeing me with rage as the cop walks up to give them some "justice"...

I have been crazy lucky quite a few times in my day but this is luckiest I've been in quite a while.
