A police officer pulls a guy over for speeding and has the following
exchange.
Officer:
May I see your driver's license?
Driver:
I don't have one. It was suspended when I got my 5th DUI.
Officer:
May I see the owner's card for this vehicle?
Driver:
It's not my car. I stole it.
Officer:
The car is stolen?
Driver:
That's right. But come to think of it, I think I saw the owner's card
in the glove box when I was putting my gun in there.
Officer:
There's a gun in the glove box?
Driver:
Yes, sir. That's where I put it after I shot and killed the woman who
owns this car and stuffed her in the trunk.
Officer:
There's a BODY in the TRUNK?!?!?
Driver:
Yes, sir.
Hearing this, the officer immediately calls his captain. The car is
quickly surrounded by police, and the captain approaches the driver to
handle the tense situation:
Captain:
Sir, may I see your license?
Driver:
Sure. Here it is.
It is valid.
Captain:
Who's car is this?
Driver:
It's mine, officer. Here's the registration.
Captain:
Could you slowly open your glove box so I can see if there's a gun in
it?
Driver:
Yes, sir, but there's no gun in it.
Sure enough, there is nothing in the glove box.
Captain:
Would you mind opening your trunk? I was told you said there's a body
in it.
Driver:
No problem.
Trunk is opened; no body.
Captain:
I don't understand it. The officer who stopped you said you told him
you didn't have a license, stole the car, had a gun in the glovebox,
and that there was a dead body in the trunk.
Driver:
Yeah, and I'll bet the lying s.o.b. told you that I was speeding, too.
Be seeing you,
- Ricky
