I left my village going 40 in a 30 and passed a crotch rocket pig that was parked up. As you leave the village it opens into a 60 so I floored it. Unfortunately my courtenay panel filter and scorpion back box were not enough. In fact my corsa was so shit slow that I don't think the crotch rocket pig thought I was trying to escape

I did it when I was young and stupid in my old Nova GTE and again in my R5 Turbo when I vanished off down Bonis Hall mainly on 3 wheels. They couldn't get near that GTT, even with the clutch slipping.
Another time, whilst the GTE was in a police pound and the GTT was once again blown up, I was using my Mums car and went onto an industrial estate to rattle the Mrs. Anyway, I was spuds deep in her on the back seat when these blue lights came on behind, I jumped into the front and drove off like a man posessed. I missed my turn too, so ended up going straight on up some gravel track and almost hitting a gate before turning around. Lucky really, I hadn't put my seatbelt back on and the splitarse was still in the back, imagine crashing only to be found wearing a hardon and a pair of socks with a naked schoolie in the back!?!
I still don't know if that was police or site security but I bet they were pissing themselves to see the car rocking, my White arse jumping back in the front etc.

A lot of these storys don't really sound like evading the police! I would class like right behind you, pulled over then booring it as evading the police!
That's quite stupid, lets be honest

Yes Me and my mum when taking the Classic Mini down to Colin's mum and dads for storage. It was out of MOT and Tax. We'd had it parked on the street outside our house for a few days while we tried to arrange to get someone to take it to Colins for us. But we got woken in the middle of the night one night with the cops going round the car with a torch looking at the tax disc EEEEK! So we thought we'd get it moved pronto the next day. We waited till it was dark, opened the front door .... omg there they were the cops were sitting in their van directly behind the mini but when they saw us at the door they reversed and disappeared along the road. We waited about 10 mins and decided it was safe to go  We got half way along our street and the b*stards were sitting in a cul-de-sac with there lights out. Mum floored it down the street, round a bend and swung in behind some garages and put the lights off. We were shitting ourselves, we could see there headlights going up and down the street. We waited till they disappeared and chanced our luck . They never got us but I was shaking for about an hour afterwards

LOL We did think it was a bit strange that they drove off instead of confronting us when they saw us

If they saw you come out of your house and get in the car, why didn't they just come back and knock your door

Yes I went past a traffic bmw 5series at about 90mph and saw in the rear view them turning round with the blues on, so I roasted it into some small town with lots of back roads coming out of it (luckely they were really close to a big truck in front of them so no way could have been caught on camera).
Another time went about 100mph past a car sitting at the side of the road eating their lunch or something then saw them zooming after me with the blues on, thought they have a diesel focus estate and I have a 2.5L BMW, chances were good so floored it away and on the bit of road I was on it turnes a long left corner so you could see the road you were just on across the sea and I saw them go half way and turn back again to a back road turn off

Was with a mate a couple of years back in a 1.6 mk4 Astra, did some bad overtaking through a set of traffic lights only to spot a new BMW traffic car coming the other way, he bricked it so floored it down the road, by this time I spotted him turning around behind us with the blue's flashing.
We turned into a Junction on a corner so he couldn't see us turn off and we ended up parked up in an abandoned industrial estate for around 20 minutes, and managed to see the traffic car drive past twice, both times we where bricking it, same mate ended up being banned for 2 years with a 2 year suspended sentence for a different incident with the police.

Once, and a close call.
Ended up turning my lights off, going up a slip road, running a red light, and could see ontop of the bridge that they carried on on the motorway. Thinking back, I could of killed somebody, fucking stupid at the time.
Other time was when I had just got a redtop corsa and thought I was the fastest thing in the west, was racing a bmw 323, car was off the clocks, i had to pull off, and the beemer carried on, police shot down the slip road after him, thank god I pulled off.
Just to confim, both these happened on Grand Theft Auto the game

When I was in college one of the lads turned up in his mums Fiesta ZS and he give me a go, I had no licence or nothin, police car behind us turned its lights on to pull us turned out he had robbed a handbag with the keys in it from an office building and told me not to stop so took chase, drove up onto a field between two bollards probably wrote the car off with the damage drove across the field and jumped a fence at the end, the police car stopped at the bollards, never spoke to the lad again, and never done it again although I must admit it was a proper rush at the time, but I have done the odd, put me foot down and take side streets to get away when the police have done a bouncer to come after me.

What kind of ban did you get for that?
Only six months and a £400 fine
The court went easy on me due to the actions of police. Would of been looking at a custodial sentence if the police did everything by
tthe book.

Not really run away but got away with getting pulled over, deff 3 points were coming my way, I'd just pulled out on a 50 road to overtake some coffin dodgers in a Corsa D on the way to my ex's. I'd committed to the move, 3rd gear, diesel engine a-roaring, speedo flying towards 70-75MPH mark when I see some oink oink pointing a hairdryer at me.
Bollocks.
Didn't even stop to think, flew over the roundabout into a hosungi estate, pulled into a close and saw a Focus with blues and twos go flying past thew road. I was shaking like a leaf
Got my missus at the time to come and pick me up and decided it was safe to go and collect my car about 5 hours later
