Sure it sucks to get pulled over for speeding, but if you do, just be polite. Don’t admit guilt, but don’t ever get into a confrontation with the guy wearing a badge. You’re not going to win, and you may just piss him off enough to show up in court when you see the judge about your ticket.

Oh, and when the traffic stop is over, don’t put your car in reverse and floor the accelerator, either.

Who says that Ferrari 250 GTOs should be relegated to museums and stuffy rich collectors who’d never drive them on the street? Here’s one we all can enjoy.

I’m generally not a big fan of police pursuit videos, because I’ve seen about a million of them. Something about this one stands out. Maybe it’s the driver, who actually stops at one point to yell at police. I’m reasonably sure she’s insane, or tripping her face off. Or insane and tripping her face off.

Maybe it’s the car, because I sure as hell wouldn’t try to outrun anything in a Scion Xb. The driver does a fair job of it, though. Who knew a Scion Xb was so nimble?

Or it could just be that it’s Friday, and I was looking for any excuse to put off redesigning the cover sheet for my TPS report. The weekend’s here in a few hours, so enjoy the vid.

Remember the good old days, when Toyota built reliable but boring cars for the masses who simply wanted to get from point A to point B with as little fuss as possible? Remember the legendary reputation of their compact pickup trucks, so tough that not even TopGear could kill one?

Back in those days, it probably seemed like a good idea to emphasize the Toyota pickup’s nearly uncontrollable power. These days? I’m guessing Toyota would like a “do over” on the following Australian TV spot. Video after the jump.

Old Lady Terrified by Race Car Ride – Watch more Funny Videos

A sweet, innocent little old lady is terrorized by a barbarian race car driver. Don’t blame me, I’m just posting it – the ad was created by Seat. I don’t recognize the language (I think it’s a Spanish dialect), but I imagine it would be even more entertaining if you knew what she was saying.

Take one BMW S1000 RR, add tire spikes and haul it to the middle of a frozen lake. Much hoonage ensues.

The S1000 RR is BMW’s first attempt at building a world class superbike. Known for their conservative sport tourers, BMW built the S1000 RR to compete in World Superbike. How different is it from their usual fare? How about a 14,500 RPM redline and 193 horsepower in a bike that weighs in at 450 pounds wet? I’m guessing the terms “flying brick” and “Gummikuh” (rubber cow) no longer apply.

Let’s say you live on an island, about the size of Wyoming, situated in the North Atlantic. Let’s also say that the island is volcanic, and has hot springs, mud pools, geothermal vents and mountains covering the interior. What do you do for fun if you’re a gear head? Why, build a big honkin’ V8 powered Jeep for hillclimbing, mud surfing and all pupose hoonage, that’s what.

At RideLust, we love playing flash games. Especially ones with cars. Sure, we might lose productive work hours playing them but you know what… who the f*ck cares! Sometimes the simple games are the best. And unlike GRAND TURISMO 5, they aren’t in rare supply.

So here you go. Ten of our favorite automotive flash games. Enjoy!

1. Monster Trucks Nitro

If you like cars then you’ll love monster trucks. Monster Trucks Nitro puts you in the thick of the action by providing you with one hell of a physics engine for this flash game. Have fun jumping over obstacles and hitting the nitrous button when you partake in one of the best redneck pastimes ever developed.

Wow, just wow. Couldn’t pass up sharing this video from our friends at Hooniverse. Enjoy the gratuitous semi-nudity at the 21 second mark. Knowing Australians, it seems to me that they left out “beer”.

“I live my life one quarter mile at a time” – it’s the phrase that gave birth to one of the most profitable franchises in movie history, and guess what… they’re back… again… for the fifth time. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker have reportedly signed on to reprise their roles as Dominic Toretto and Brian O’Connor in the 5th installment of the “Fast and the Furious”. Now, supposedly the new film will be titled “Fast Five” – not overly clever I suppose, but I mean really, what else can they do at this point.
