Same here today. Was just giving my car a bit of a workout, was up to about 140mph and a dumb police car moved into my lane without looking and he was only doing about 100mph even though he had his flashing blue lights on. I guess he wasn't expecting to be overtaken. Once he moved over he was soon enough a tiny spot in my rear view mirror

My Ride: 2010 BMW 530i E61, alpine white, cream-beige interior, sports-auto-transmission and a lot more-
Well, talking about Autobahn in Germany:
One time I was driving home from IKEA and suddenly a german Highway police E61 passed me with about 160km/h.
I thought, OK, let's follow them and see if they show some respect for my wagon .
Well, at some point they started to get slower, drive all the way to the right and switched the lights on. I thought, shit, now they want my ass.
After about 20 seconds they didn't seem to stop me and I passed them.
after about 1000m I saw why they acted like this.
At the middle lane there was a huge red spot where somebody hit a wild boar or a deer.
Right after this I managed to know why they suddenly stopped - Just to slow down all the traffic and to remove the leftover on the middel lane.
It could have been worse..
What do we learn ? - Never overtake a police car when the flashes are on - they could save your car from hitting the leftover of an animal.
