but tonight was different. in fact, it was awesome!
as we were heading back in our beloved housing van, and heading back into the interstate 75/85 back to tech, this old buick wizzed past us at such speed, i was surprised. we werent even in the interstate yet, we were just about to connect into it. so my initial reaction was that maybe he was pissed that we could have been driving too slow, i mean, its a housing van afterall. just about 2 seconds later, we see two cop cars wizzing past us with lights flashing, and we immediately knew that the buick was speeding away from them. i never encountered that right infront of my eyes, so i was excited.
what do you know, few seconds later, we see a stream of cop cars wizzing past us. this wasnt just a normal chase, this was serious. everynow and then, there were 2 cop cars driving past us in full speed. i was counting, there must have been like 16 or 18 cars we came across.
instead of heading back to tech, we all encouraged scott to keep driving, hoping that the chase will end sometime soon and we witness the cops beating the shit out of that dumbass driver. we ended up driving for 10-15 minutes further away, and our hopes of witnessing the end was dashing, until we came across a flash of bright lights. guess what, they fishtailed the bugger.
interstate 75/85 is a major highway, with 5, 6 lanes heading to each direction. i always wanted to take a picture of the interstate from the tech square bridge, i guess i will do that over the weekend. and that swarm of cops surrounding the fishtailed buick took up like 3, 4 lanes, that we had to maneuver around it to get past the traffic. they had the guy up in cuffs and up against one of the cars.
it was a neat surprise night out for the 9 of us in the van, and provided great entertainment. sad to say, this must be the single exciting event that took place this semester... ive been studying way too much. but this probably wont happen anytime soon.
