It's been a number of years, but one weekend I was driving that same stretch of road about 2AM coming back from my home town of Monroe. That stretch of road between Apex and Sanford is pretty rural, with few exits. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw blue lights in the distance. The blue lights rapidly gained on me, and some type of foreign sports car blew by me at high speed, followed by three police cars that were in close pursuit with a couple more lagging behind. The road has some gradual turns, so the convoy disappeared and I never saw any of them again. I expected to see something in the news the next morning about a high speed chase that resulted in an accident, but nothing was reported. I still wonder if the driver managed to get away.
