VIDEO: Three Reckless Michigan Drivers Fought The Law And The Law Won
I’ll admit when I get behind the wheel I tend to have a lead foot. When I turned 16 I found myself being pulled over by the Michigan state police for going way faster than the posted speed limit.
I might have been a young and dumb teenager but I can’t help but wonder what these guys were thinking when they started doing burnouts right in front of a Michigan police station.

“When this happened, I was in my office and I could hear the sounds, and so were some of my other members of the department.
