Tailgating
A man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard.
Suddenly the light turned yellow. Just in front of him was a crosswalk,
so he did the right thing-he stopped at the crosswalk even though he
could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.The tailgating woman hit the roof and the horn. She screamed because
she had missed her chance to get through the intersection. As she was
still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window. She looked up into
the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to
exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station
where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a cell.After a couple of hours, however, a policeman approached the cell door
and opened it. He escorted her back to the booking desk where the
arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects. As he handed
her possessions to her, he said, “I’m very sorry for this mistake. You
see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn,
flipping off the guy in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him.
I noted the ‘Choose Life’ license plate holder, the ‘What Would Jesus
Do’ bumper sticker, the ‘Follow Me to Sunday School’ bumper sticker and
the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk. Naturally I assumed
you had stolen the car.”
