Route 22

Recommended Posts

A Police Officer was waiting along the side of a highway waiting to catch speeding drivers. There weren't as many violations this day as usual. The State Police Officer sees an old car puttering along at 22 mph. he thinks to himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder" , so he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over, Approaching the car, he notices there are five elderly ladies - two in the front, 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 doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am<" the officer replies, "you weren't speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers" "Slower thatn the speed limit? No Isr, I was doing the speed limit exactly ... twenty-two miles an hour!" the old woman says a bit proudly.

The State Police Officer, 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 thatnked the officer for pointing out her error. "But before I let you go, ma'am, I have to ask... is everyone in the car OK? These women seem shaken, and they haven't muttered a s ingle peep this whole time," the officer asks with concern.

"Oh, they'll be all right in a minute, officer. We just got off Route 215."

You told it fine. I think these jokes do the rounds by e-mail; I know that my hubby gets a lot sent to his office from all over the world, which are then passed on by e-mail. Some of them are good, some are so rude they'd make even my toes curl! LOL A lot of them are sexist and generally rude about women, but that is because he is an engineer and it is mainly a men thing. He does say when he brings something like that home...... "You're not going to like this one...!" Some of the sexist ones are still funny, though, Depends on your sense of humour, I suppose. Men's and women's are very different I think, as a rule.
