So last night I was driving home from my sister in laws house pretty late, like around 11. I live in a rural area so there really were not many people on the road.
A car comes speeding up behind me with his bright lights on and slams on his breaks right behind me and then proceeds to tailgate me very closely. I couldn't even see the car because of the bright lights. I was freaked out but I knew I was coming up on a passing zone so I just held me speed (which was about 5 over the speed limit). Well, he didn't pass me at the passing zone so then I started getting really freaked out. I decided to increase my speed a little bit to see if he would get off my tail. That didn't work. He kept so close behind me I thought he would hit me.
At this point I was hysterical (I'm already a nervous driver), he was driving really agressively. So I decide to pick up my cell phone and call the police. While I was on the phone talking to the person describing my location the person behind me turns on his lights, and it is now apparent that it was a police officer. He pulls me over for speeding!
I was crying and hysterical when he came over to the car and still on the phone with the police explaining that it was the police that had royally scared the hell out of me. He didn't give me a ticket after going back to his car and I assume getting an ear full. he just told me that it was dangerous to speed!
I more annoyed now that I have had time to think about the whole situation. Was he trying to get me to speed? I'm not really sure, but the whole experiece was really scary.
