Police Interactions

GOOD:
A policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting
too many. Then, he discovered the problem. A 10-year old boy was standing
up the road from him with a hand-painted sign which read, "RADAR TRAP
AHEAD". The officer then found a younger accomplice down the road with
a sign reading "TIPS" and a bucket full of change.

BETTER:
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated
radar. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police
department a picture of the $40. The police department 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're 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 silently closed his book, got back on his motorcycle and left. She was
laughing too hard to start her car for several minutes.

Don't trust his words, trust his actions.
