SPEEDING:
GOOD
Madison, WI policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem, a 12 year old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign which read, 'RADAR TRAP AHEAD.' The officer also found the boy had an accomplice who was a bit further down the road from him, with a sign reading, 'TIPS' and a bucket full of money. (And we used to just sell lemonade!)
BETTER
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in La Crosse, WI. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being a smart ass, he sent the police department a picture of $40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
BEST
A Young woman was pulled over for speeding. A State Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said, 'I bet you are going to
sell me a ticket to the State Trooper's Ball. He replied, 'Wisconsin State Troopers don't have balls.' There was a moment of silence. He then closed
his book, got back in his patrol car and left.
PRICELESS
A Florida senior citizen drove his brand new Lexus convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying
the wind blowing through what little hair he had left. "Amazing," he thought, as he flew down I-75, pushing the pedal even more. Looking in his rear view
mirror, he saw the highway patrol behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought,
"What am I doing? I'm too old for this," and pulled over to await the Trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the Trooper walked up to the Lexus, looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes and today is Friday. If you
can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused and said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a Florida State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."
"Have a good day, Sir," replied the Trooper.
