Texas State Troopers
GOOD
In Richardson, Texas, State Trooper was running radar. He had a perfect
spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting any. Then he discovered
the problem.
A 12 year old boy was standing up the road with a hand
painted sign that read "RADAR TRAP AHEAD!" The officer later found a young
accomplice down the road 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 Plano, Texas. A $140 speeding ticket
was included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of
$140. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
BEST
A young woman was pulled over in Austin, Texas for speeding. As the TX
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 Texas State
Police Ball." He replied, "Texas 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.
