The police officer had just pulled over a yuppie on a new Harley for running a stop sign. "May I see your driver's license and registration please..." the officer asked.
"What's the problem, officer?" the yuppie replied.
"You just ran a stop sign." the officer said.
"Oh come on, pal, there wasn't a single car anywhere in sight."
"Nevertheless sir, you are required to come to a complete stop, look both ways, and only then proceed with caution."
"You've got to be kidding me!" the yuppie said.
"It's no joke sir." the officer said flatly, pulling out his citation book and preparing to write a ticket.
"Look I slowed down almost to a complete stop, saw no one, and proceeded with caution."
The officer sighed and slowly shook his head. "That's beside the point sir, you are supposed to come to a complete stop and you didn't. Now if I may see your license and..." the officer began.
"You sure do have a lot of time on your hands pal. What's the matter, all the doughnut shops closed this early?" the yuppie asked sneering.
"SIR!" The officer sighed. "I'll over look that last comment now 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 yuppie said, folding his arms across his chest.
A smile appeared on the officer's face. "Sir, I can do better than that." The police officer quickly jerked the rude yuppie off his Harley, and proceeded to methodically beat him over the head with his nightstick.
"Now sir, would you like for me to slow down or come to a complete stop?"

Oh my, I had a police officer tell me a similar story about stopping but he didn't really hit me. It really made an impression.
LOL. Like the cops told my brother when he was a teenager. That sign says STOP not slow down. Helen
Policemem have always the last word !
Ouch!

A good come back by the Yuppie on the donuts. I guess the policemen get tired of this one. We got a ticket long ago for not coming to a complete stop.
Didn't see this one coming!
I have a son who is a cop. I'll have to send this to him. Demonstrations are good at times, but maybe not on the head like that.
Have a good night, Patty.
Great! Serves him right!!
Sometimes it's just best to keep your mouth shut and accept your punishment.
