8. Don’t ride with a mad woman.
Some 50 years ago, Dad was stopped for a minor infraction, while Grandma was riding in the back seat with us. She started in with the “why aren’t you out catching criminals, instead of picking on innocent people, and escalated from there. Dad tried, couldn’t shut her up; instead she’d accuse him of having no backbone; to stand up for his rights; then she’d start in on the cop again.
Finally the cop told Dad, “I’m just going to give you a verbal warning; you already have enough troubles!”
Twenty miles later, Grandma was still asking, “what did he mean by that?!?”
I doubt the same scenario would go down the same way now days.
Lena an Ole were driving down the country road when a cop pulled them over.
Cop: “Sir you ran through that stop sign back there”
Ole: “No I didn’t I came to a complete stop.”
Cop: “Sir I witnessed you going through that stop without slowing down.”
Ole” “No! I came to a complete stop.”
Just then Lena leans over and says”
“Give it up officer. There’s just no arguing with him when he’s drunk”.
