I have heard from a few people that Crown Victoria Police interceptors, used by the police...either top out at 130 MPH, or have a govenor of 130 MPH.
Does anyone know anything about this subject?
Because if thats true, when I'm on the highway at 11:00 PM doin' 95-100 MPH like i usually do and i see those blue lights come on, i'll just go over 130 MPH and have the po-po's all day.
(I have a Camaro Z28, and have gotten it up to 155 MPH before, just in case anyone doubted i could go that fast)
Plus I doubt they would risk a 130+ MPH chase reguardless of if the statement i first made about their top speed is true.
Yes, yes i know the have these things called radios, but for where i drive i'm never 30 miles away from my house, and can easily get off the next exit and lay-low for 1/2 hour. |

all they need to do is run your plates once, genius. there's also this thing called a helicopter, aside from the radios, and tire spike strips.
Honestly, if you're driving that wrecklessly, I hope they do take your license.. makes it safer for the rest of us on the roads. Leave the high speed driving for the track. Even if their cars aren't governed, most departments have rules about high speed chases.. they'd rather let you get ahead of them then chase you, causing you to try to outrun them and causing more danger to other drivers.

According to http://www.modernracer.com/features/fordcrownvictoriacop.html
they are "limited to 129 mph". but a GlassWolf says, they have many methods to find you. And don't forget there are more of them than you.

Man that was funny. Are you living in a fantasy land or something? Let's say you were breaking the law and a cop comes behind you. By the time you see the cop on your rear view mirror, it's too late. They would've seen your license plate, and since you're on a highway, you can't hide. The only choice you have is praying for an exit ramp.
If your plate was stolen/fake, how many times do you think you can get away? Twice the most before they track you down? For that you get to sleep with a 350lb guy named Mike for few years!
Not worth it. |

note also that the governing feature can be modified or bypassed entirely in about 10 minutes with a programmer, just as with most vehicles like diesel pickups.
the [police cars are limited in speed because they have no reason to go any faster. speeds higher than 130 endanger the lives of others as well as those of the officers and suspects in the pursuit.
They'd rather you get away or run into a road block ahead, or jsut follow you by air.
by the way, if you are caught going that fast, you realize that's a falony conviction you're facing.. which means not only are you going to do prison time, and probably never drive again, but you'll also never own a handgun or rifle, and you'll never vote, among other things like trying to get a job and having to list the conviction on a job application.. great future you're facing there, kid.

well around where I live they have no helicopters, i have never seen a spike strip, and as i said before, when ever i drive on the highway i'm never more than 10 exits from my own exit. and plus i'm talking about running at night so i have the advantage of darkness. I also put a clear coat paint or something like that (IDK what it is exactly called) to get rid of the reflectiveness of license plates. My theory is, and has worked a few times, is unless you think they have gotten your plate number, try to get away...
I would never run during the day. My car is heavily modified on the exterior, so it would be pretty obvious that if they saw my car agin they would know it was me.
If this was the case, could a cop pulled me over like 3 days later for speeding/ running away, based only on the fact it looks like the same car, and no definent proof such as the plate number?
and as i said before they would call off the chase if i was goin that fast, because like YOU said, they wouldn't risk it. |

this is a different example but....
my buddy was driving on a road at like 10:30 PM and the speed limit was around 35 MPH and he was goin like 50 MPH. We noticed that a cop was coming the other way, based on the look of his headlights. He kept going 50, and the cop went by us goin the other way.
Now it doesn't take a genius to realize that we were goin over the speed limit, based on how fast we past him goin the opposite way. So my friend looked in his rear view and saw that the cop had pulled down a side street and saw his back-up lights go on. As soon as he saw that he floored it and we were goin about 90 MPH down this road, passing cars on the left, etc. we look back about 1/2 mile later and we see the cops blue lights in the distance, we pulled down the next street, backed into a random driveway and turned the car off. the cop came into the neighborhood, at this point he turned his blue lights off, and went right past us, turned around at the end of the street, went past us again and left and went back the way he was goin.
Cops are so dumb, he thought he was gonna be all cool and when he first turned around to get us, he would just drive up behind us without his flashers on, then put them on when he was close to us and pull us over.
I know he thought that we didn't see him when we passed each other.
To bad my friend and I both know what cops headlights look like, and we are always watching for that.
Cops also NEVER have foglights, so as soon as you see foglights, or HID's coming at you, you know its not a cop. |

Here is the best advice I can give you: follow the speed limit at all times, and you will never have to worry about getting pulled over for speeding, or trying to outrun the cops when they catch you speeding. |

Enjoy it while you can. The new Dodge police cars are coming soon. The 6.1 liter Hemi is 425 horses for the public and I'm sure the police interceptor version will get a few more. With 50/50 weight distribution, all wheel drive and Charger's standard electronic stability program (ESP)* is designed to assist drivers in maintaining control by measuring the vehicle's steering angle, turning rate, and acceleration to detect spin (oversteer) or plow (understeer), and automatically applying the throttle and/or brakes when necessary. All that means to you is you are not just driving against a cop. You are going to be up againt a highly sophisticated computerized traffic intervention device. All the officer will have to do to catch you is point the car at you and hold on. Then when you bend into the next corner a little tap from behind and you are outta here!
Catching that bucket you're driving will not be an issue.
You still willing to risk your life like that? |

hey man, i'm pretty sure local police aren't going to go out and buy a brand new fleet of Dodge charger police cars. It would be way to expensive to do that and they would have no need to do that, where i live they have very little high speed chases, and even the state troopers aren't goin to get all new Dodger Chargers....and like i said before, if i'm goin 100 MPH and they are stopped, reguardless if they have the 425 HP charger, there is little chance they could catch me seeing how i would be .2 to .4 of a mile further down the road than him by the time he reached 100. Sure i have only 325 HP, but my car will easily be 500-800 pounds lighter than the Charger. But back to my main point, i can pretty much tell you that at most, the state troopers will have 2 or 3 of the New Chargers in their fleet. A cop, reguardless of the car he has, will not pursue me if i'm goin 120+ its to dangerous...like i stated before. and i'm not that willing to risk my life, its not like a get into a high speed chase everyday, thats retarted. I just like the fact that i could get away if i tried too. |

That is what a lot of bike riders used to think. They can go 0 to 60 in about 3.5 sec and reach top speed of 150mph+. Well do you know how many of them are in jail? You don't have enough fingers to count them. |

As someone who has been on both sides of high speed persuit and when I was younger eluded police in a city wide high speed persuit. Though I ditched the cruisers they recognized my car and just went to my house. None of our agencies will back off. We have had many persuits that have gone 145mph+. Usually sport bikes and usually fatal. Public roads are very unforgiving of mistakes at high speed. The deal is your getting a false sense of security that you can outrun a cruiser. When your at work, sleeping or going on living your life those troopers that you think your going to out run are out there cruising and responding to calls at a high rate of speed all day/night long. Point is they know the max corner speeds and braking points of all your exits by heart. Knowing the road is a huge advantage. I have a freind who is a CHP officer. He drives a Camaro 90+ mph 12 hours a day to cover his patrol area. I ask how in the heck do you catch anyone speeding when your going so fast. Easy, was his answer. They are the ones that pass him. His police Camaro comes with a 4 point rollbar and 5 way harness in it. It too will do over 155. It's suppossedly able to overtake any vehicle available to the public. His assignment is traffic enforcement specifically agressive drivers and high speed (90+ mph and over) crimes. It is felony wreckless driving. A felony conviction will change your life. Yes they will chase you for going over 120 mph. Reason is if you are that motivated to get away it is assumed you must have done something very bad. When felonies weather real or presumed and once the lights go on and you don't yeild then the felony is proven and the chase continues. Just like the guy in his own house with a gun. Once they start they will not just give up or go away because it's too dangerous.
And to answer your original question. Yes, the Police Crown Vic as issued comes with a speed governer set at 130 mph. A lot of agencies will have it disabled if their work involves traffic enforcement. The Crown Vic is not the one to mess with. Nothing like looking over your shoulder at over 100 mph to find one 3 feet off your back fender. Been there done that. The big SUV Ford Expedition police vehicles weak spot is their brakes. They have mondo power but after having to dog the brakes 2 or 3 times and then they have NO brakes! That's when they have to back down. A Crown Vic doesn't have that problem and even hobbled at 130 mph can easily keep you in sight for as long as it takes. Then other resources are brought to bear on you and off to jail you go. |

assuming you survive the multi-roll over accident at 90+MPH when you stop.
The real point here is you're endangering the lives of everyone on the raod around you by driving that fast. I don't believe that "speed kills" after having driven SCCA and NHRA cars myself, but what I do firmly and wholeheartedly believe is that differential speed kills. You hit anything at 90MPH when it's stopped, and you're as good as dead. You hit a 55MPH truck going 70+ and that 15+MPH difference is what screws you. In your case going 130+, you're talking a differential speed of more than a car at 55 hitting a brick wall. see the problem?
I'm not trying to bash ya here or make ya feel like an idiot. I'm trying to be reasonable and point out the real problems with going that fast in the US. Our roads just aren't made for it. we don't maintain them properly fir high speeds, and we have relatively thin asphault.. not like the autobahn where they have 27" of asphault and if the road shows a crack, they replace the whole section of road on the spot.. if you hit a pot hole at 100+ you can lose control of even a well tuned sportcar at night, and end up headlong into a semi.
Hey I love to drive fast too.. I just leave it on the strip or the track for the most part. I restrict my fun on the streets now to car shows, and the occasional humbling of a ricer at a stop light if it's a quiet day out and I'm not going to tick off a bunch of other drivers. Granted in my case, most of the kids around here with tuners know better already so they leave my car pretty much alone.

Is it a felony if you are going 100+ MPH, and the police put their lights on, and you pull over?
Glass, i agree with what you said about our roads, they aren't in the best of condition, and if you do hit a pothole at those speeds your f*cked, reguardless of the fact that I upgraded my shocks, struts, springs, and sway bars. Also another thing i noticed are the pieces of 18 wheeler's tires on the road, if you hit that, your gonna lose control also. I think between you, and Hired Gun, i have been pretty much convinced that its not worth the thrill of trying to get away and drive that fast. I talked to my uncle about it and he said this "Know you limits, don't be stupid and try to outrun the police, you will only get yourself killed. Getting away from them on city/town streets is one thing, but high speed chases are the wrong thing to do." And i will admit, I sometimes do feel invinceble when i'm behind the wheel of my camaro, probably because i did most of the work on it / modifying it etc. But I realized that when u crash at those speeds, you don't even realize it has happened becuz it will go THAT fast. Thats not something that i want to happen, not only because i spent all the money/time/effort into my car, but for my own well-being, and my family. Its a selfish move on my part to drive that fast, because if i crash and die, its unfair to my family, friends, and girlfriend who I love very much. I'm sure none of them want to be burying their son/grandson/brother/friend/boyfriend at 17 years old. |

What is P.I.T.? No it's not a felony if you pull right over. It's the attempted eluding a car with flashing lights that is the felony. High rate of speed speeding will get you arrested though. Just like driving under the influence or wreckless driving. Now if minors are in the car now that is a felony again.
Law enforcement will put tack strips in front of a car or motorcycle going at any speed. If they can get in front of you at 180 mph they will flatten your tires. If they come up behind you at that speed and the road is clear they will spin you out. If you approach a road block at high speed they will shoot you. Serveral car persuits in our city were ended when the speeder was simply shot in the head. It's no joke and people die from it. |

actually depending on the state you're in (50 states, not condition) going over 100MPH even if you stop, is considered an automatic attempted suicide, and having anyone else in the car is attempted homocide. (Virginia has this for example) so be very careful there.. and yes if you are endangering the lives of others by not stopping, and there's traffic, they'll do anything they can to stop you if they feel it's the best thing to do.. they will PIT you at those speeds. Just watch a ffew episodes of "wildest police chases" on Spike.. you'll see several examples.
cops won't shoot the driver of the car unless he's armed though and they feel a threat is preasent.

Virginia Doest play with speeding. I live in maryland and i go to VA alot. My brother was going like 115 one night heading to VA beach from maryland. He was on 95 south around fredericksburg area and the cop was following him and eventually pulled him over and had them get out of the car and check for alcohal and the cop is like "tell me one good reason why i shouldnt put you in jail" / He gave him a ticket and told him he had a court date and that they whould be watching him from the sky / highway imaging from the sky/helicopter maybe or satellite even all the way to va beach. So they had him on lock all the way down to the beach. He had to get a lawyer to get out of all this trouble. His license was suspended for a few weeks even. Not worth it. |

I may have done away with the fast driving, but i still believe in outsmarting the cops. Like if they are going the opposite way as you at night, and you see them start to turn around, just floor it around to the next corner, pull down a street, pull in someones driveway, and turn your car off. I have done this a few times and its worked everytime. No need to go terribly fast in this situation, just be smart. Its very hard to get an exact match on a car at night when its traveling the opposite way....and the cop doesn't realize that the person is speeding until they pass him... |

Yea, but remember, every dog has it's day. All it takes is some bad luck on your part, and you will get busted.
For example, lets say you pass a cop going the opposite way and decide to take the next exit. What do you think will happen if the cop radios for help and another patrol happens to be near your exit? Unless there's 5 cars that look exactly like yours trying to exit at the same time, it won't be that hard to spot you.
I've seen it happen. It's not matter of how smart you are, but how lucky/unlucky you are at that moment. |

"cops won't shoot the driver of the car unless he's armed though and they feel a threat is preasent."
That is very naïve thinking. They shoot unarmed people everyday. If you point your car at an officer and drive towards them you are going to die. If you endanger others with your car they will shoot you to stop you. Never tell someone a cop just won’t shoot you if you are not armed. That doesn’t matter and having a weapon is not a requirement of getting shot. It all about how the officer is interpreting the situation and he always gets the benefit of doubt by the DA.
A couple years ago a deputy in my town shot a man while attempting to elude him while driving one of those Volkswagen powered Manx buggies. The officer got out of his cruiser and commanded the driver to stop. The driver did not comply so he shot him with one single shot to the back of the head as he was speeding out of the Sizzler parking lot towards a busy intersection. The man was unarmed and he was known to the deputy who could have just went to his house and waited for him. He was endangering the public and it was ruled a good shooting as the deputy stopped a dangerous driver from taking the pursuit into a more dangerous situation.
The ducking into a driveway thing. If the officer has not turned his lights on yet, it is not legally eluding. Eventually the will get to know your car and if they see you break the law they will just go to your house and give you the ticket there or better yet where you work. You are not outsmarting anyone. Mission accomplished for the officer. They are probably laughing at you while you are ducking into the driveways with your lights out and then having to sneak home. Your not speeding anymore and now all they have to do when they see you is tap the brakes just before you go out of site the other way and they know you will go hiding and they don't even have to bother turning around to stop you. You are most likely going to end up the being the topic of amusement and they will all start doing it to you just for a laugh.
Consider this. If you want to drive fast either take your car to the track or if you are really so smart then go take the police exam and join up. Then you might get one of those new Dodges issued to you and all the free gas to drive it all day long. Then you can use your superior brain to outsmart punk kids who think they are smarter than you.
Where do you think cops come from? Traffic cops most likely are hot rodders who are using their tallent for driving for the good. If you doubt me I dare you to try to outdrive one. It's not like tv where they all spin out and run onto each other while the bad guy gets away. Like I said. You will think you are doing pretty good and when you turn to look that darn Crown Vic will be right there. They get formal high speed driving instruction and regular practice. You just speed on the highway a little from time to time. They do it everyday.

actually I outdrive cops at the track fairly often, but most people don't go to driving schools or drive at tracks or strips, so for the most part yes cops are better trained drivers.
As for shooting someone, they aren't going to shoot you simply for speeding. Like I said, unless they feel a threat is immenant they won't shoot you simply for speeding. If you're endangering lives, of course they'll shoot you, but they have to weigh the risks of shooting someone driving a 2 ton car at 100+MPH as well.. Onc the car loses control, they have to consider the other drivers around them.
use your head. it's common sense.
I've worked armed security/bodyguard service and been through the Virginia state police training for handgun, shotgun, and PR24 use (required to pass the range test for licensing to carry on the job) so I'm fairly familiar with what is and isn't legal or considered wise in the course of having to draw or use a weapon, along with the legal and civil liabilities that go along with that job.

Never said they would shoot you for speeding or at speed. That would be even more wreckless.
Just like you said, for endangering lives with emminate lethal danger The guy in the Sizzler partking lot was being stopped for driving while suspended and he was known to run so when he bolted the officer just shot him.
A PR24, the nightstick with wood, I have not seen one of those since the 80's. Most security and law enforcement are all sporting collapsable metal Asps now. Plus the new supercool electric fighting machine affectionatly known as the "Tazer." That thing rocks. My best friend/cop buddy uses his at least once a week. If the darn cartridges weren't so much I'd get one just to play around with. One of those would sure quiet the neighbor dog down. |

Has anyone tried that tazer on a pit bull? Those suckers don't die. A cop had to shoot it 6 times before it let go of the bite.

Sorry Kid, I am a State Trooper and I have never lost a chase. My crown vic does max out at 130mph, but you are not faster than motorola or a helicopter. The other people on this site are right your not gonna win. You may get away one day, but in the end I will be stuck picking you up off the pavement. Unfortuantly I will also be the same individual that has to notify your parents you will not be coming home. Your still young and your gonna make mistakes, I see it everyday. Nothing says you cant learn from your mistakes or anothers. In the end what do you prove? nothing don't endanger my life or the life of sombody else. SLOW DOWN! |

OK Mr. Jones just so you know the chase all depends on where you are the crown vic's where I am arent governed they reach 140 in the right conditions but we have other cars that will get 170 and no matter how dangerous we will chase till you wreck or we do once again it all depends on where you are but we have about 15 helios available within about 10 mins but belive it or not thats not public knowledge oh if they have a good enough description of you vehicle then yes they can hook you up the next day next week or even next year if they follow up on it now i dont know where you are and dont really care but just keep in mind not everything is public knowledge people dont know that where i am at most cops carry assult riffels and yes there are dumb cops just like there are dumb speeders so you may get away with it once or twice but one day you will run into the one that knows what he doing and you will be spending plenty of time in jail to think about it |

I had to get in on this,
My dads a Cop and pulling into a drive way is not "outsmarting" them, I'm pretty sure that cops have to graduate, so your grade 8 level isn't going to cut it.
Lets just hope that you have a low sperm count so we wont see posts like this in the future!
You dont need to brag about speeding, its like braging that your the best Russian Roulette player. |

"Heavily modified" --OMFG! If you're chopping ANYTHING, you're a moron. Body kits and such... It's just like lift kits and big tires, just a pen1s extension... A REAL man only cares about what's under the hood. And I'm not talking about crome. I don't have a spec of crome on any of my cars. It's about what's inside... And 155mph isn't that fast...
Oh, and speeding is stupid. That's how I lost my entire family... (I'm not in the mood to explain that one again) |
