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 was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration as she missed
her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and
makeup.
As she was
still in mid-rant, 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, finger
printed, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.
After a couple of
hours, a policeman 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.
He said, ‘I’m very sorry for this mistake. You see,
I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the
guy in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him.
I noticed the
‘What Would Jesus Do’ bumper sticker, the ‘Choose Life’ License plate holder,
the ‘Follow Me to Sunday-School’ bumper Sticker, And the chrome-plated Christian
fish emblem on the trunk, Naturally…I assumed you had stolen the car.’
