Yeah, but this one really happened:
A guy I knew in highschool had a late model Ford and he managed to bend the driveshaft by driving over a large rock. There was a 4 way stop at one corner of the school and a wheat field on the opposite corner where the cops used to park at lunch to try and catch kids running the stopsigns. Word was put out to behave untill the signal was given, and the guy stole the driveshaft from the copcar. He dragged it through the wheat to his car, then gave a wave and drove off. I had the '35 Ford at the time, and Another guy who had a near identical '36 coupe and I burned through the intersection and rounded a bend a block down at about 60. Cop got really upset when he tried to follow.
Our town policing was contracted out to the county sheriff at that time, so there wasn't any backup nearby that he could call. Danny and I walked to school the next few days and the deputy was moved to an even worse area as punishment, so nobody got into trouble.
