    Default true or false

    i was coming back from 11mile and my main bearing broke fan and all, only made it back thanks to a temporary fan belt made of paracord, then got pulled over just past woodland park, and was escorted back to the springs by an officer

    False. Bearing wouldn't break a fan, or all.

    A main bearing would seize the engine. Unless it was the idler bearing. Either way the LE would have called in a tow if you didn't have communication device with you.
    False(ish)

    False, the cop would have beaten you then arrested you for driving unsafe vehicle.

    Idler bearing seized causing the serpentine belt to break or main bearing?

    But if it was the muffler bearing he would be ok.

    But the cop would cite him for low blinker fluid.

    false, we know you only keep the cheap paracord and that stuff would have either melted or broke.

    and a cop would never escort anyone any more unless you were pregnant but now they if you are already stopped they have to call an ambulance.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.
