the hi-way patrol
Sitting on the highway, waiting to catch speeders, a state trooper spotted a car crawling along at just 22 MPH.
He thought, “That’s just as dangerous as going too fast!” 😬
So he turned on his lights and pulled the car over.
Inside were six elderly ladies, all wide-eyed like they’d seen a ghost. 👀👻
The driver said, “Officer, I don’t understand. I wasn’t speeding. What’s the problem?”
He replied, “Ma’am, driving too slowly can be just as dangerous as speeding.” 🚗💨
The woman calmly said, “But I was going exactly 22 miles an hour!”
Trying not to laugh, the officer explained, “That’s not the speed limit, ma’am… that’s the route number.” 🤦♂🛣
Her face turned red. 😳 “Oh! Thank you, officer!” she said with a nervous laugh.
As he walked away, he looked back at the other ladies, still pale and silent, and asked, “Are they alright?”
She smiled and said,
“They’ll be fine in a minute… we just got off Route 142.” 🚙😱
