One other story that happened to a couple friends and I... We just had our parents all take off to watch our sisters play basketball in Calgary, so we all thought it would be a good idea to get together and have a few beer now that the parental supervision had all gone. So my 2 buddies get together and drive over to my place, we were all 13 at the time, and we have a couple beers and start feeling pretty good. At the time, my parents didn't have satellite, so we decided to get into the vehicle and drive 15 mins back the other way to my friends house.
Feeling pretty decent, we make it to the only intersection along the way, pop over the hill and there are three cop cars and two fish and wildlife trucks sitting there. It was the first weekend of hunting, and the place was littered with lights of blue and reds.
We stopped on the hill and all of us just froze. We were maybe 200 yards from the intersection, and my buddy asks what should we do? I said turn around and lets get the hell outta here. We didn't make it even 180 degrees around and we have all 3 cop cars and 1 fish and wildlife truck surrounding us. Bah.
Cop asks my buddy to get out of the vehicle, and for license and registration, hell we didn't even have our learners licenses yet. Takes him outside of the truck, while me and the other guy sit inside the vehicle. Cop comes back to the truck, and asks why we turned around. I told him we forgot some CD's back at my place. Office says, you boys have a nice day and not to let him catch us on the road again.
Turned out my friend outside the truck told the officer we forgot some Cd's as well, whether or not that had anything to do with why he lets us go. I'm sure he could smell the booze and probably the bloodshot eyes of 3 13-year-old boys after two beers. Weird how he let us drive back though.... regardless, all three threw our underwear out as we hit our destination.
