"Making A Right Turn"
A Ft Lauderdale Florida motorcycle cop was on patrol
one bright sunny December afternoon when he came
upon a line of cars stopped at a light with horns blasting.
He stopped behind the last car in line. Then he noticed the
reason for the noise. The light directing that lane of traffic
was green. He pulled out of line and stopped alongside of
the first car in line to see what the problem was.
The car was a big brown Cadillac with New York plates
driven by an elderly woman. He motioned her to roll down
her window, which she promptly did. He then asked her
why she was stopped when the light was green.
She said, "Oh, because I'm on my way to my sister's
house which is that way." and she pointed to the right.
The motorcycle cop said, "Well go ahead! The light is
green."
The elderly woman responded with, "Yes I know, but
the sign under the light says 'RIGHT TURN ON RED.'

"Red Light"
Two elderly women were out driving in a large
car-both could barely see over the dashboard.
As they were cruising along they came to an
intersection. The stoplight was red but they
just went on through. The woman in the
passenger seat thought to herself, "I must be
losing it, I could have sworn we just went
through a red light."
After a few more minutes, they came to
another intersection. The light was red again,
and again they went right though. This time
the woman in the passenger seat was almost
sure that the light had been red but was really
concerned that she was losing it. She was
getting nervous and decided to pay very close
attention to the road and the next intersection
to see what was going on.
At the next intersection, sure enough, the light
was definitely red, and they went right through.
So, she turned to the other woman and said,
"Mildred! Did you know we just ran through
three red lights in a row! You could have killed us!"
Mildred turned to her and said "Oh, am I driving?"
