Quick cop!!
In most of the United States, there is a policy of checking on
any stalled vehicle on the highway when the temperatures drop
down to single digits or below.
About 3 AM, one very cold morning, Trooper Allan Nixon #658
responded to a call there was a car off the shoulder of the road
outside Shattuck . He located the car, stuck in deep snow, and with
the engine still running. Pulling in behind the car with his
emergency lights on, the Trooper walked to the driver's door to find an older man passed out behind the wheel with a nearly empty vodka
bottle on the seat beside him.
The driver came awake when the Trooper tapped on the window.
Seeing the rotating lights in his rearview mirror, and the State
Trooper standing next to his car, the man panicked.
He jerked the gearshift into 'drive' and hit the gas. The car's
speedometer was showing 20-30-40 and then 50 mph, but it was
still stuck in the snow, wheels spinning.
Trooper Nixon, having a sense of humor, began running in place
next to the speeding, but still stationary car. The driver was
totally freaked, thinking the Trooper was actually keeping up
with him. This goes on for about 30 seconds, then the Trooper yelled, "Pull over!"
The man obeyed, turned his wheel and stopped the engine. Needless to say, the man from Dumas, Texas was arrested, and is probably still shaking his head over the State Trooper in Oklahoma who could run 50 miles per hour.
Who says Trooper's don't have a sense of humor
Cheers,

They just have to put that in some movie or show on tv. It would make you remember what you watched for that alone
The driver of the car is probably watching unsolved mysteries to find out how the cop did it?
