Did you drift between two cars just before the intersection? That would have been sick breh.
That said, I had a similar experience in my Mom's (yes Mom's) 68 Firebird. I rebuilt the carb, and as payment she let me take the Mrs. Out on a date in it. The car is 100% restored, immaculate.
Anywho, a Cop was blocking an intersection and ended up BSing with us for about 20 minutes while the accident cleared.
Contrary to popular belief, Police are just normal people. If you don't do something to force their hand, they are usually pretty cool to talk to.

Whew! Saved by my e30
Not saved in the eternal life sense, saved from a highway patrol ticket.
I was headed back from a meeting today and took an on-ramp I know to be uninhabited, usually. So there really isn't any need for stop signs. Clear visibility in all directions, bright sunny dry road (I live in a flat desert) so why not make the stop signs optional and test my H&R sport springs. Normally an ok thought, today not so much. Motorcycle cop was waiting there. Apparently I'm not the only one that enjoys this section of road.
He just shakes his head, signals me to pull over and asks, "What are you doing?" Yea yea really embarrassing no reason to do that. He said he was writing up some notes on someone else, saw my car and wanted a reason to pull me over since he loves e30s so much. I gave him the reason
He spent 5 years in the army in Germany and had an e36, wish he had known about e30s at the time. He knew everything about the car, Didn't tell him anything and he rattled off the year and the is trim from the plastic bumpers and sport seats. He's driving a BMW motorcycle. Great guy. End of the story, no ticket and keep that car safe :tsk: (not me the car).
Keep your e30 looking good, admit to your wrong doings, and don't be stupid like me
