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
which 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 $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 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.
