PA. STATE TROOPERS
1) Good:
An Erie, PA policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but
wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem. A twelve-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 money. (And
we kids used to just sell lemonade!)
2) Better:
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an
automated radar post in Pittsburgh , PA. 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.
3) Absolute Best:
A young woman was pulled over for speeding. As the Pennsylvania State
Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she
said, "I bet you're going to sell me a ticket to the State Troopers
Ball." He replied "Pennsylvania State Troopers 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 in his patrol car and
left. She was laughing too hard to start her car.......
