Texas Ranger
Texas Ranger
A Texas Ranger pulled over a red Porsche (inhabited by a Yankee) after it
had run a stop sign. He walked up to the car door and said, "Sir, may I see
your driver's license and registration, please?"
The Yankee said, "What's the problem, officer?"
"You just ran the stop sign back there at the last intersection."
"Oh, come on, pal, there wasn't a car within miles of me!"
"Nevertheless sir, you are required to come to a complete stop, look both
ways, and proceed with caution."
"You gotta be kidding me!"
"It's no joke, sir."
"Look, I slowed down almost to a complete stop, saw no one within twenty
miles, and proceeded, with caution."
"You are supposed to come to a complete stop. Now if I may see your license
and..."
"You must have a lot of time on your hands, PAL! What's the matter, all the
doughnut shops closed?"
"Let me see your license and registration immediately!"
"I will, if you can tell me the difference between slowing down and coming
to a complete stop."
The old Ranger had had enough and said to the driver, "Sir, I can do better than
that."
He opened the car door, dragged the obnoxious motorist out, and began to
methodically beat the living crap out of the driver with his nightstick. As
he continued to pound the driver, the Ranger asked, "Now, sir, would you like
me to slow down or come to a complete stop?"
Teaching by example is not a lost art in Texas.
