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 flashing lights and pulls the driver over.
Approaching the car, he notices that 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 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 156.
