Sitting on the side of the road waiting to catch speeding drivers, a state trooper sees a
car puttering along at 22 mph. He thinks to himself, "This driver is
as dangerous as a speeder!"
So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over. Approaching
he car, he notices that there are five elderly ladies - two in the front seat
and three in the back, wide-eyed and white as ghosts. The driver, obviously
confused, says to him, "Officer, I don't understand. I was going the exact
speed limit. What seems to be the problem?" the trooper trying to
contain a chuckle, explains to her that 22 was the route number, not the
speed limit.
A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for
pointing out her error. "But before you go, Ma'am, I have to ask, is
everyone in this car OK? "These women seem awfully shaken."
"Oh, they'll be all right in a minute, officer.
We just got off Route 127."
