Today, while driving extremely fast on a road in the middle of nowhere, I started to go down a hill. Noticing a police car at the bottom, I slammed my brakes and blew a tire in the process. It turns out the police car was an old cutout used to trick people. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was speeding a little on the highway. I thought I saw a police car, so I slammed on my brakes, causing the person behind me to rear end me. The "police car" I saw was just a broken down car on the side of the road. FML
Today, I was driving a little over the speed limit, when I saw a cop car waiting to join the road ahead of me. I quickly hit the brakes so they wouldn't have a payday with me. I hit the brakes too hard, lost control and almost ended up on someone's lawn. FML
Today, I accidentally rear-ended an undercover police car. FML
Today, I crashed into a pole on purpose as a cop pulled me over for speeding. I figured the officer would feel bad for me and that the cost of fixing my car would be less than a ticket. He gave me one anyway. FML
Today, some aggressive asshole was tailgating me on my way home, bumping into me twice. I got scared and kicked my car into high gear and got out of there. Seconds later, a traffic cop came out of nowhere and pulled me over for speeding. FML
Today, while I was driving, a police officer jumped out from the sidewalk and into my lane. I slammed on the brakes so I wouldn't hit him. He then gave me a ticket for "obstructing traffic." FML
Today, while driving home, I saw a cop with a speed gun "hidden" by the side of the road. I went to slow down so the fuck-knob wouldn't be able to ticket me. I then had a brain-fart and floored the gas instead of hitting the brakes. Hello speeding ticket. FML
Today, while I was driving, there was a high speed car chase. The runaway managed to avoid my car but the police didn't. FML
Today, a cop almost rear-ended my car, slammed on the gas with no warning, swerved around me, flipped me the bird, then cut me off and then drove a full ten miles under the speed limit. When I changed lanes to overtake him, he pulled me over for road rage. FML
Today, I was driving with my grandma and she was going 30 over the speed limit. To slow her down, I said, "Hey look, the police". She slammed on the brakes so hard I hit my head on the dashboard. FML

a friend died last week because the driver was speeding. I hope next time it won't be a cutout.

seriously, driving extremely fast on a downward hill, you could of caused a serious accident with another car coming around the corner or you could of flipped your car if you have no respect for you're own life at least try and have respect for other people's lives.

At a starting speed of 150 km/h, a stationary tire (brakes locked) will lose 0.5 cm of rubber per second. If OP was going "extremely fast" as he says, and locked up his brakes for an extended period of time (at 150 it would take around 6 seconds to stop fully, OP was likely driving faster than that) he could very well have scrubbed a flat spot all the way through his tire.

Wow!! Who taught u to drive? U should never slam on ur breaks going down a hill. Very dangerous. Even if ur tire didn't blow, it's a lot easier to loose control on elevated or steep areas. Then ur looking at ur brakes locking up and other hazardous things. Sad.....very sad.

If you were going so fast that you blew out a tire, you need a ticket! You're going to kill some innocent persons driving like that! I hope you don't live in VA!

In Northern California they have a old black and white squad car with two dummies in it wearing state trooper uniforms at the bottom of a hill.
