ghost car

At night, police cars will sometimes be parked in 'hidden areas', such as behind a billboard or in a parking lot, and will be facing traffic looking for speeders or DWI cases. They may also be parked alongside the road or in the breakdown lane on the highway.

Ghost cars will always have their head lights off, but sometimes the day-running lights will remain on, giving the headlights a light 'ghostly' appearance. It is also sometimes used to refer to any ordinary car driving at night with no headlights or just their dayrunners on, but usually the title is reserved for police vehicles.
I passed under the bridge when I noticed two ghost cars hiding next to it, on the median, each facing a different direction.

driving

The Murphy's Law of Driving

1) The car infront of you is always slower.

2) The car in back of you always wants to go faster.

3) There is never traffic until you start to back out of your driveway.

4) There is never traffic until you reach the stop sign.

5) When you are in a hurry, everyone is on a joy ride.

6) When you are looking for an address, everyone is in a hurry.

7) Bugs, salt, and other grime on the windshield are attracted to the area directly infront of your line of sight.

8) If a car in the other lane is hovering between you and the car infront of you, he wants to switch, even though...

9) Turn signals (blinkas) are never used.

10) Your exit is 3 lanes to the right, and about 200 feet away.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

whity

Sometimes spelled whitie, a whity is used in urban areas to describe a white person with no distinct nationality from the suburbs. They usually sport blowout haircuts, and expensive clothing which they wear with little essence of styling other than what they saw on the manicines in Abercombie and Fitch.

They only come to urban parties for two reasons... drugs (usually cocaine or oxycontin) or girls. Because they rarely know anyone else at the party, you'll observe that more often than not they'll mess with the people nobody fucks with, including drug dealers, and the gang banging type.
Some high-class girls came to our party, and naturally, some whity kids followed. Bringing drugs around here is bad enough, but then they started getting in the faces of some pretty dangerous people, and ended up with liquor bottles over their heads.

speed team

Not to be confused with the lightning rod, and usually involving more than one other car, a speed team is a group of drivers who speed on the left lane of the highway during long road trips. Usually hardened road warriors will know that the more cars that are speeding together, the less likely a state police car will pull them over, as long as they are going at a reasonable speed (80 on a 65 posted).

Called a 'team' because, if a slower float is in the left lane, they'll often all pass it on the right together. Speed teammates rarely even know each other, and more often than not the team will eventually break up when one leaves the highway.
I was speed teaming from Boston to Providence and I got there 30 minutes earlier than I expected.

Blinka

A car's turning signal. Cars sold in New England may as well have these as optional instead of standard, because few people use them.
That guy decided to turn on his left blinka after he had been sitting in the middle of the road while the traffic behind him stood dumbfounded for about half a minute.
