State: Tennessee

Story: I'll make it a short story.

I was heading up to Pittsburgh for the Thanksgiving holiday and while driving through Tennessee I was in the slow lane with a car passing me on the left. That car pulled in front of me and only passed me doing a couple of miles per hour faster than me. Another car was following that car and was about to pass me when a patrol car came towards us from the other side of the highway. We were all in the slow lane with me going the slowest. My detector went off and the patrolman hit me with the gun. He put the lights on and turned onto the grass and came after us. By the time he caught up to us we were pretty close to each other and the car that was behind me had to drop back a little to let the patrolman get in behind me. I pulled over and apologized for not pulling over sooner but I didn't know if he wanted me or the car that passed me or the one that was ready to pass me. All he said was that he wanted me and then asked for my information. Now, why did he want me? It's because I drive a Porsche 911 and I'm willing to bet I was targeted as some person who was to much money and not enough time to fight a ticket. I'll see him in court and give it a shot.
