TRUE STORYA senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. Amazing, he thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, What am I doing? I'm too old for this, and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the Corvette, looked at his watch, and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a state trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."
"Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper

MY son has a good friend state trooper and he rode with him one night.
The trooper pulled over, shut off his lights and turned on the radar on a 4 lane
going south.
They sat and talked for quite awhile but very little traffic.
After about an hour a guy went flying by doing about 90.
The trooper ran him down and told my son that he walked up to the drivers window
and said "I've been waiting for you all night". The speeder replied "I got here as fast as I could!"
Trooper said "Slow down and get outa here"
