GRANNIES ON THE ROAD
A WV. State Trooper was patrolling State RT. 10 in
LoganCounty , when he notices a
car puttering along at 10 mph. He thinks to himself, 'this driver is as
dangerous as a speeder!'
So he turns on his
lights and pulls the driver over.
Approaching the car, he notices that there are five elderly
ladies - two in the front seat and three in the back, wide-eyed and white as
ghosts.
The driver, obviously confused, says to him, 'Officer, I
don't understand. I w as going the exact posted speed limit. What seems to be
the problem?'
The trooper, trying to contain a chuckle, explains to her
that 10 was the route number, not the speed limit.
A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer
for pointing out her error.
'But before you go, Ma'am, I have to ask, is everyone in
this car OK? These women seem awfully shaken.'
'Oh, they'll be all right in a minute, officer. We just got
off Route 119.'
