A man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy
boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him.
He did the right thing, stopping 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 -- and screamed
in frustration as she missed her chance to get through the
intersection on his tail.
She was still in mid-rant when she heard a tap on her window and
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, a jailer approached the cell and opened
the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the
arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.
"I'm very sorry for the mistake," he tells her. "You see, I pulled
up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the
guy off in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him."
"I noticed 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.
So naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car."
