A policeman stops a woman (obviously driving a Pagoda
) for excessive speeding.
- Good morning. Do you know what that is (showing a portable radar set)?
Good morning Sir. No, I don't. What's this? A hairdryer?
- No, ma'am. This is portable radar. And what have we here? Can you see these digits?
-140, I can see.
- Exactly. Your driver's license and car registration documents please...
- I have none of them.
- How come you have none of them?
- Well, because, you see, so it all happened quickly today ... and even this Pagoda is not mine.
- What do you mean it's not yours?
- Well, you see... I actually stole it. Because as I killed that man, I had to somehow get rid of the corpse, and I did not want to dirty my car. So I stole this stylish Pagoda and packed the body in the trunk. And now I was going so fast as I wanted to get rid of the body as soon as I could.
- Do you really mean what you just said, lady? You declare that there is a dead body in the trunk? Now, please put your hands on the hood and don’t move!
Then the policeman calls for backup:
- I've got a dead body in the trunk, stealing a car and speeding.
In no time, a whole team with all kind of weapons showed up. The commanding officer stepped up towards the women.
- Do you have any documents?
- Off course I do. But they are in the glove box. Can I give them to you?
Then she goes to the glove box, hands the driving license and vehicle registration to the officer. Everything looks perfect… spic and span
- As it is not a stolen car?
- No, of course not, that's my car.
- OK, so please open the trunk.
The woman opens the trunk, and again, everything is perfectly in place, including the warning triangle, spare wheel etc. The commanding officer becomes truly confused:
- Well... as we got the report about a stolen car with a dead man in the trunk…
- Oh, good Lord... and what else was he telling you, perhaps that I was overspeeding?
