Elderly Drivers Sitting on the side of the road waiting to catch speeding drivers, a state
trooper saw a car puttering along at 22 mph. He thought to himself, 'This
driver is as dangerous as a speeder!' So he turned on his lights and pulled
the driver over.
Approaching the car, he noticed there were five elderly ladies - two in the
front seat and three in the back, wide - eyed and white as ghosts.
The driver, obviously confused, said to him, 'Officer, I do not
understand. I was going the exact speed limit. What seems to be the
problem?'
The trooper, trying to contain a chuckle, explained to her 22 was the route
number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the lady 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 ladies seem awfully shaken.'
'Oh, they will be fine in a minute, officer. We just got off Route 127.'
