John and his wife Lisa were driving down the highway toward the beach and they came upon a sheriff's van who was in the left lane going exactly the speed limit.
People in other cars would pass them and then see the sheriff and sort of back off.
John said to Lisa "well I'll pass him, these other people are idiots, I'll just pass him slowly" Lisa explained you better be careful. John assured her he had everything under control.
He slowly eased his way past the sheriff in the right hand lane and as soon as he got past him - Wham! The officer pulled behind them and put his lights on. They declared "no way"
They pulled over and out hopped this short pudgy sheriff who came up to the window and said with arrogance "why did you go and do something stupid like passing me? I have the same authority that any other officer has" John humbly declared "yes sir" "sorry sir" The arrogant sheriff said "you better slow this car down, now have a nice day"
Before John and Lisa could say "shoo we got left off" As the sheriff turned to go back to his van his feet got tangled up and he fell down slamming to the pavement, "ooofff" his hat went flying and his shirt ripped. Lisa sunk in her seat to go unseen burst into laughter so loud that the sheriff over heard her, bounced up quickly and gave John a ticket stating "lets try this again - have a nice day young lady"
"Sorry John" "Oh no problem - he forgot to place our license number on the ticket"
