Default The Ultimate Wave !!!

So I'm driving down 2 lane hwy 286 in Plum pa.
I see ahead a black Vette hauling ***, about 75 mph in a 45mph... As he is about to go by me, I was going south he was going north, I wave and he waves back!!!

Then he swerves to his right to pass the line of cars ahead of him. He is driving on the shoulder, ricks dirt and trash kicking up behind him! I thought wow wth?? Then I look up and see 2 Pennsylvania State Troopers, lights on flashing siren whaling in hot pursuit! Just like Roscoe P. Coltrain from Hazzard county!!

I look in my rear view mirror and the Vette disappears in the distance with the fuzz on his tail..

Thing is, he still waived !!

Despite the potential for disaster, I instantly smiled when I read this. I imagined myself in your car being waved at and, at the same time, I saw myself as a kid again in the driver's seat in the other car.

Wow!

That beats me. It is finally warm enough in Ohio for a lot of Vettes to emerge from slumber (although I drove mine through the winter). Today I was happy swapping waves with a silver C6 coupe across a four lane road at normal speeds.

A wave followed by two troopers beats me.

I live not far from the route you describe. My wife thinks I am crazy
because of how loud I laughed. I know the area well.

Kind of awesome....

Evading the fuzz (a term I haven't heard in years) and takes the time to wave. Amazing !!
