Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer sees a car puttering along at 22 MPH.
He says to himself, “This driver is as dangerous as a Speeder!”
He turns on his lights and pulls the driver over.
Approaching the car, he realizes that there are five old ladies – two in the front seat and three in the back – eyes wide and white as ghosts.
The driver, obviously confused, says to him, “Officer, I don’t understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?”
“Ma’am,” the officer replies, “You weren’t speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers.”
“Slower than the speed limit?” She asked. No sir, I just kept the speed limit exactly… Twenty-two miles an hour! the old woman says a bit proudly.
The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that “22” was the route number, not the speed limit.
A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error.
“But before I let you go, Ma’am, I have to ask… Is everyone in this car ok?
These women seem awfully shaken and they haven’t muttered a single peep this whole time.” the officer asks.
“Oh, they’ll be alright in a minute officer. We just got off Route 119.”
LOL!!
Hope this funny story will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
An elderly woman named Margaret was pulled over by a police officer for speeding.
A police officer pulled over an elderly woman named Margaret for speeding. She rolled down her window and gave the young officer a sweet smile.
“Ma’am, do you know how fast you were going?” the officer asked.
Margaret squinted at him. “Oh, son, at my age, I don’t even bother looking at the speedometer anymore. I just try to keep up with traffic.”
The officer sighed. “Ma’am, there is no traffic.”
She grinned. “Well, then, I must be winning!”
The officer chuckled but remained professional. “License and registration, please.”
Margaret began rummaging through her purse, pulling out a pack of tissues, some hard candies, a sewing kit, and what looked like a 20-year-old coupon for prune juice.
“Oh dear,” she muttered. “I seem to have left my license at home.”
The officer raised an eyebrow. “Well, that’s a problem, ma’am.”
Margaret sighed. “Yes, I suppose it is. But to be fair, I don’t really need a license.”
The officer frowned. “Why not?”
She leaned in closer, lowering her voice like she was sharing a secret. “Because I don’t technically own this car.”
The officer immediately straightened up. “Wait… whose car is this?”
Margaret waved her hand dismissively. “Oh, I don’t know his name, but I’m pretty sure he was the guy I… um… borrowed it from at the gas station.”
The officer stepped back. “Ma’am… are you telling me you s.tole this car?”
Margaret gasped. “Well, if you put it that way, it sounds bad.”
The officer quickly called for backup. Within minutes, several police cars surrounded Margaret’s car. A senior officer approached and asked, “Ma’am, may I see some ID?”
Margaret smiled sweetly and handed him her driver’s license.
The officer blinked. “Ma’am, this is valid. And this is your car.”
Margaret patted the dashboard. “Of course it is! Been driving it for years.”
The first officer stammered, “B-but… you told me you s.tole it!”
Margaret grinned. “Oh, officer, you young folks don’t listen, do you? I also bet I never told you I was speeding either!”
The senior officer sighed, shook his head, and waved her off. “Have a nice day, ma’am.”
Margaret chuckled to herself as she drove away, muttering, “Works every time.”
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
