A mile or so down the road is a Louisanna State patrol SUV waiting for me with all the his police lights on. Needless to say I was thinking of who to call when I got to jail.
The statie got me stopped then the lexus pulled up and a uniformed officer got out. Quietly wrote me a ticket for 90/65 and dismissed me with no other comment.
Still have no idea why they didn't pin me for fleeing but they got $700 out my wallet.

Lucky you. You could've got reckless driving as well which might've landed you in jail.
My $25 fine was nothing compared to your $700 ticket and it could've ended up so much worse for me. Well, I took that as a serious warning and promised myself I would never drink and drive again. That was more than 50 years ago and I kept my promise. I could've killed myself and my best friend, or killed someone else.
