Speeding Ticket Stories
GOOD:
A policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but
wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem - a 10-year-old boy
was standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which read "RADAR TRAP
AHEAD". The officer then found a young accomplice down the road with a
sign reading "TIPS" and a bucket full of change. (And we used to just sell
lemonade.)
BETTER:
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through
an automated radar post. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute,
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. As the motorcycle
officer walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said,
"I bet you are going to sell me a ticket to the Highway Patrolmen's Ball.
"He replied, "Highway Patrolmen don't have balls." There was a moment
of silence while she smiled, and he realized what he'd just said. He then
closed his book, got back on his motorcycle and left. She was laughing
too hard to start her car for several minutes.
