Okay, so. Those that are interested in hearing something that has one in a million odds, listen up. Those that aren't, hit that little back arrow up top, okay?
I was heading home in my white work van (E250) and all day long my alternator had been flaking, floating at lower speeds. It hadn't been charging in a LONG while now, so I pulled off the 2-lane highway to see if I could tap it with a wrench or something to get it charging enough to make it the rest of the hour and half home.
I pulled off the highway, and went down the road I pulled on to about 1/10 of a mile, to the first little opening/dirt area I could find. I fixed the alternator (temporarily) and got back in the van, started to pull out and all of a sudden a cop comes sliding in front of me, face to face, blocking my van.
I was startled, and rolled the window down, to which I was asked to exit the van. I exited and he asked me why I was where I was. I explained the alternator situation, and he looked in my cab, saw the battery guage full (charging, now that I tapped it) and said.. "yup.. another lie."
I then proceeded to tell me that I had just passed him doing 85 in a 55 construction zone, SAW him turn on his lights, and then SPED UP to EVADE him. I then turned in to this neighborhood and HID from him?? I was SO confused. He told me a was playinghim for a fool to say that I didn't do those things.
He asked me what the odds were of a white van passing him, then he finds me, and I WAS originally headed the same direction. I told him the odds would be low, but I DIDN'T do it.
He then tells me I am getting a ticket for it, and I am lucky not to go to jail for evasion. Not two minutes later, a WHITE VAN comes out from the VERY ROAD I was pulled off at, creeps forward and starts to leave the neighborhood entrance.
I was like.. WTF? NO WAY! WHAT
ARE the odds.
I was and am still really in awe at what happened.. I got the license number and decription of the suspect van that WAS evading him, but I don't know what good it will do, NOW.
Anyway.. what are the odds, huh?
