Things that Pop into my Head
One of the funniest stories I read this week. Chris Evans pulled over a cop car on the A40 which had its blue lights flashing. On his way home from work, Chris Evans was following a marked police car which had its blue lights flashing, but didn't appear to be responding to any emergency or be involved in police business of any kind. His blog entry reads:
\"Anyway, guess what I did last night on the way home? I pulled a police car over. What a laugh. \"I was behind him for about two miles, for the duration of which his flashing lights were on but he was doing 40 miles an hour and didn't seem to be in the middle of any sort of 'police' action, other than just driving his car. \"'I don't think he knows his lights are on,' I thought to me-self. \"So, gingerly (of course), I edged up alongside him, opened my window and mouthed that he might want to pull over. \"Looking more than a little surprised, to say the least, he did so and duly thanked me, for his lights were indeed a-flashing by mistake. \"I'm still laughing about it now.\" Chris's Interesting Car History
Evans, who is famously passionate about fast cars, was once banned from driving. In 2001 he was fined £600 and banned from the road for 56 days for doing 105 miles per hour on the A3 in Esher, Surrey. His silver Ferrari Maranello was stopped by Surrey Police and Evans admitted the charge at Staines Magistrates Court. In May last year, the disc jockey spent more than £5 million on a Ferrari. The car, a 1961 250 GT SWB California Spyder, was once owned by Hollywood actor James Coburn. Evans paid twice the estimated price for the car, which was sold at auction in Italy.
