Ok,so I'll start off.
So,I'm sitting here at 3:30 am in a Dennny's/shopping parking lot cleaning my windshield. All of a sudden two teens rev a suped up trans-am and start drifting in a open section up ahead of me. And these dudes are just smoking the parking lot up. And the whole time I'm thinking...."You two must want to go to jail"....sure enough there's a cop. So these two idiots,decide to do what little hip hoppers do...they park and take off. Now I have the worlds best point of view of everything ...and I'm watching them stroll along like they just happed to be out for a stroll in the park..and I'm LMAO because I see the cop start following and chase em down. 5 seconds later five other units show up in a what basically turns out to be a Cops episode,with pursuit,arrests and all. Ahhhh....the wee hours do hold their little surprises.
If there was a La Quinta close you should have streaked it while the cops were occupied Use to be one of my favorite things to do late night it is really fun if ya knock on doors and announce that you are streaking

So, the bottom line for the Cops....It was just a walk in the park.:muttley:

They could have easily gotten away. As the cops start chasing, throw donuts and run. Donuts for cops is like chaff for radar guided missiles. It distracts and confuses them. ...not to mention, makes them hungry!

Nice. What gear did you use?

I took this image over two different days. Oct. 16th, then the rest on Oct. 22nd 2017. It's a total of (24) five minute exposures using an SBIG STL-1100M monochrome camera using Badaar LRGB filters for color and fine details. The telescope was an F/5 Takahashi FSQ 106ED mounted on a Paramount ME mount.

That's a great picture. Great job!

Because my windows are tinted and when too much dirt piles up,I can’t see well out my back window. But I’m always cleaning rims,or something in odd places. Did my tires and rims once in front of the Hollywood Police station. I just don’t care...looool

Alright folks....I just got back from a week trip to Santa Barbara and Malibu. And what I like to do at night (or day) is burn and play a little game I call “GTA 5”. And I’ll use just my radio too,like a spanish station,or play songs from the stations in the game. So this time I did Brentwood,Bel Air and all of Laurel Canyon Rd. Found Franklins house too!!! (Oh no speeding tickets....but I did get a parking ticket to keep my sullied reputation in good standing) You know...I need formal sponsorship. Like a Go-Fund Me page for all the tickets I aquier,to keep my wacky excursions going.
