This low-life drugs-pusher thought he could mess with State Trooper Frank Sincera, but Sincera had other ideas. Sincera executes a perfect California stop, and sends this renegade back where he belongs, IN JAIL
Sounds like an episode of "Sheriff hugh white teeth!"

I too have the same issue (120mph in Florida), but cannot find a US embassy contact who can help anywhere. Who should you ask?
Call Florida and settle it with them; then ask them to update any shared database so entry into the country won't be a problem. Remember, the state handles those issues, not the national government.

OK; what county did this occur in? BTW, I did pick up on the dry British humor of your remark, before you all start harping!

Got caught on one of the toll highways travelling between Orlando and Miami. Proper smokey and the bandit job, the patrol officer did a u-turn on the opposite highway bouncing across the grass in clouds of dust and everything… Humour I have no idea what you mean…

was on the way back from the Burning Man event, north of Reno. apparently it's the cops' biggest time of the year for nailing speeders and anyone else who gives them the slightest cause for a pullover...
my trooper popped over the hill in the travelling in the opposite direction and i just caught a glimpse of his brake lights going as i disappeared over the same hill... so down to the limit and there he came, lights a blazin' godamn.... spent ages takin' the details and told me after showing my UK license that it's normally mean a trip to the magistrates straight away... but i guess he needed to bump his wage so i bought a ticket for $140. asked him how he knew my speed? he had a car mounted speed gun scanning the road ahead, which deducted his vehicles speed from the closing speed of the cars.
next visit will most certainly be on the eastern seaboard so hopefully no airport problems
