Yes, in fact it was big news where I was living.
When I was younger, I seemed to like speeding a little.... so much so that I lost my license 8 times and had 7 driving without a license offenses. (Ah to be young and stupid)
Short story, Cops knew me, they looked for me, My picture and my rides where on the wall in the station. So, one night I'm taking home a friend on my Honda v45 Magna (Heres a picture of what one looks like

And I get stopped. Mind you, I'm actually in one state (ND) but live in another (Minn). I have a bottle of whiskey opened in my bike's saddle bags so I know I'm beyond fucked this what with all my priors etc. My friend gets off the bike and as he's walking to the cop car I take off. This is the no shit part... They chased me for over 30 minutes and in the course wrecked a squad car and a squad blazer. When I saw that happen I knew I was going down if caught.
I was able to slip into a residential area, and hid behind a garage, was able to cut across a back yard and into the parking lot of a 7-11 where I saw one of the cop blazers go by... so I got behind him, figuring thats the last place they would look. I was able to follow him to the interstate where I got off and got home.
I ran in my place (I was having a party so there where about 25 people there) and yelled the cops are after me give me some cash now! Someone handed me a fist full of twenties and another guy handed me his leather jacket and helmet (So I looked different) I I headed back out and drove 300 miles away and stayed with another friend for a week.
They ran my face in the paper etc, it made all the news... they even parked a ND squad car and detective car PLUS a Minn squad car and detective car outside my place for 72 hours waiting for me to come home.
In the end they had to drop all charges since they have 72 hours to catch you or they can't do shit. (Odd but true law in ND) At least back then.
Anyways. I traded my bike for a car while I was gone and a friend brought me home where I kept my nose clean for a few months... All the cops where really on me then, they all knew it had been me but couldn't do anything about it. Well, the night finally happened where they got me on some bullshit charge, just enough to get me in front of a judge and thought the book at me... giving me the max 10k fine and 6 months. So in the end they won, and always do.
