Police Warning Tickets...
Someone recently sent me a list of police comments that were reportedly were taken from actual police car videos around the country. Here are some of my favorites:
- "Relax; the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretch out after you wear them awhile."
- "If you run, you'll only go to jail tired."
- "Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? In case you didn't know, that is the average speed of a 9 mm bullet fired from my gun."
- "So you don't know how fast you were going. I guess that means I can write anything I want on the ticket, huh?"
- "Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I am the shift supervisor?"
- "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?"
- "No, sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to have quotas, but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we want."
- "I'm glad to hear the Police Commissioner is a good personal friend of yours. At least you know someone who can post your bail."
- "You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we don't. Sign here."
- "Warning? You want a warning? O.K., I'm warning you not to do that again or I'll give you another ticket."
