Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
I was sitting on "The Knoll" checking northbound when I tagged a silver car heading northbound on Mopac going 84mph. I was just about to pounce when I saw, coming up behind it, anonther car going about the same speed. I tagged him, a two tone dodge charger, at 83mph.
I came off the hill and into traffic. As I raced to catch up I noticed that the silver car, turned out to me a Mazda two door, had slowed and moved into the middle lane. As I passed I motioned to the Mazda to "follow me" and proceeded to catch up to the charger. I got them BOTH pulled over, a two-fer, and after dealing with the mazda, he "wasn't paying attention", I went to make contact with the Charger. On his dash sat a Cobra Radar/laser detector. I asked him if it alerted and he stated that it didn't. I told him that he needed to let his rabbit get a little further ahead of him. He started laughing at that stating that I was a good shot not to have alerted his detector.
I mentioned the websight and he stated that he was suprised that I would be knowlegable about that. He stated that he even knew Radar Rob.
He was a nice enough guy and I hope he signs on.
Yes, he got a citation(come on....really)

Good evening Fritter nice to hear from you. I must ask the obvious - did Mr. "I wasnt paying attention" but no RD going 1MPH faster get a signed receipt also? Be safe. Thanks!

I once bagged a girl as ugly as a duck. Not much to look at, but boy, could she swim!
Re: Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
Now that you're reporting RDs by make the Cobra Fail list is starting to fill up. Still, even with a premium detector he would probably have no warning, just an alert to start pulling over. Congratz on your two-fer although I don't personally approve of the practice. ;-)
By the way, be on the lookout for a Li equipped Audi S5 tooling around Austin the weekend of September 11th. That's my friend DaveNDallas and although hilarious he's a real ahole and gving me a ton of crap about my new *****.
On second thought, nevermind that would be abuse of power.
Re: Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
Fritter, you ever been "bagged" when off duty?
Personally, I'm bag proof....mainly cause I drive like granny (in the car).
LEO's aren't interested in vehicles doing 65 in a 70.
I refuuuuuze to feed the monster (govt)
So why an RD ? It was for the bike. And just for the fun of it while traveling.

Re: Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
we need to create a master thread of all Fritter's loot. Counting all the RDs and CM set ups. No surprise cobra would be leading, but he is using laser.

That's how I type BEFORE my second drink, lol.
The double pullover trick amazes me. Does this ever fail (you try it and one gets away)? This seems tricky do pull off successfully.

Re: Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
Does anyone have proof Fritter is actually a cop ?
Telling people where checkpoints and such are to be is not exactly insider info.
I hear it all the time on my scanner.
Just wondering if he could be a fake or cop wannabe.
Seems a bit odd that a LEO would come on a public forum like this one and brag of "kills".

k
thx
The only cops that ever impressed me were the ones who lectured me but gave me a break.
Those few left me with a lasting respect for LEO's
Those few seemed more interested in my well being rather than feeding their own egos.
I've had friends who were / are cops and many need to be reminded now and then that God resides in the sky, NOT in a patrol vehicle.

If you know about the forum, and even know someone in IRL from the forum, and you're still using a COBRA, and you DRIVE IN AUSTIN, you DESERVE THAT CITATION =)
Re: Bagged a Cobra today. Interesting stop.
Honestly, my Cobra has saved me more than a few times..
