that cop over on CF with all the black cars is an excellent example
Thats WAY over the top for me, but I don't make the payments on those things, he does. If he likes the personal plates, thats his business.

He does have quite the collection on a cops wages though. Holy shit.

My late dad was retired AF Intelligence. I had mentioned getting one when I got my first nice car and he asked why I wanted to draw extra attention to myself.

that's my point.
My mom's been hit twice while stopped at a light in the last 14 months. Both times the pos backed up and ran. Neither was caught. The first backed to the next street behind them, then turned and ran. The last one backed up and went around. A witness got the tag number, but it wasn't registered to the car involved.
She's 68 and has been driving for almost fifty years. This was the first times it happened to her.
Don't hold your breath. It happens.
