Look out
I was on the way to mom and dad's home after the Corvette club get together. To my not so shock a mass of car was a head of me. I'm sure we all know who was leading the pack. A JSO (jacksonville cop) will it was me and the cop in his v6 car going down the exit ramp. Mind you I am like 6 car length behind him when we get to the turn part I notice something. He is not slowing down for the turn. The cop nearly spin out in front if me but some how saved it. We both are stop at the light I'm in the turn lane the cop is going straight when I look over at the cop car trying not to laugh my butt off I see the meanest look ever. The cop is glaring me down thud his dark tinted window.
Will at that point my temp to not laugh failed. The cop rolled down his window and said. "I was looking at how nice your Corvette I forgot there was a turn coming.". I thank him for the comment and the green light turn for his lane and he left.

He was probably looking to see if you had a front plate. lol
I would report him for inattentive driving, because he'd be more than happy to take that opportunity on anyone else.

Two things;
1. Don't use OC's name in vain.
2. Don't throw down a challenge
