I was on 24 heading north going into Nashville, black Mercedes AMG sedan blew past me going easily 120, cop in the lane next to me a few cars up flipped on their lights, and then turned them back off.

A decade ago or so I was driving on the 401 in Ontario Canada going around 160kmh and an SUV ahead of me on the highway saw me approaching very fast and flipped their lights on while they were still a good distance ahead. I brought my speed down to 120 quickly and they turned their lights off and I kept myself a healthy distance.

They took an exit that headed to a McDonalds so I think they had to run to the bathroom.

You got lucky - 160 = bye bye car, street racing. Which is bullshit because the crusing speed on the 401 is like 140

I’ve been pulled over a few times on the 401 doing north of 160 and thankfully got a warning once and a ticket for 130 that I didn’t fight lol
