"Smile For The Camera"
An off-duty police officer, familiar with radar guns,
drove through a school zone within the legal speed
limit when the flash of a camera went off, taking a
picture of his license plate.
The officer, thinking the radar was in error, drove
by again; even more slowly. Another flash. He
did it again for a third time, at an even slower
speed. Same result.
"This guy must have screwed up the settings,"
the off-duty officer thought.
A few weeks later, when he received the violations
in the mail, he discovered three traffic tickets:
each for not wearing a seat belt!

"Waiting For The?"
A rookie police officer was assigned to ride in a
cruiser with an experienced partner. A call came
over the car's radio telling them to disperse some
people who were loitering. The officers drove to
the street and observed a small crowd standing
on a corner.
The rookie rolled down his window and said, "Let's
get off the corner."
No one moved, so he barked again, "Let's get off
the corner!"
Intimidated, the group of people began to leave,
casting puzzled glances in his direction.
Proud of his first official act, the young policeman
turned to his partner and asked,
"Well, how did I do?"
"Pretty good," replied the veteran, "especially since
this is a bus stop."
