Yesterday's WTF

So I'm sitting at a light in traffic on the way home from work yesterday when a cop in a marked Charger pulls up next to me. I'm just sitting there listening to my music when all of a sudden he starts revving his engine. He proceeds to do it like 5 times next to me. I can see the car surging forward while he's doing it, so I know he was doing on purpose. I can only assume he was trying to get me to rev my engine, which I never did. I just ignored him and kept going on my way. WTF. Since when to cops in marked cars, while in uniform rev their engines at people?

image is a photo I took at the High Museum.

Maybe he's trying to tempt you into street racing. (I know I know, it's a marked Charger)

Should you fall for it though...

SUE FOR ENTRAPMENT, A LA DELOREAN STYLE.

It was one of the crazier things to happen to me, that is for sure.

What were you driving? Maybe he just wanted to hear you rev. I don't know why he wouldn't have just lowered the window and asked, but maybe

Then maybe he wanted to nail you for excessive noise. :o

Don't trust traffic police. They are sneaky.

big reason I didn't rev it, and took off slow.
