Radar
A snippet spotted in Pilot Magazine and entered in Bike Magazine:
The article was entitled "In a hurry are we, sir?" ( British Police
Wit).
Two members of the Lothian and Borders traffic police were out on the
Berwickshire
moors with a radar gun recently, happily engaged in apprehending
speeding motorists,
when their equipment suddenly locked-up completely with an unexpected
reading of well
over 300 mph.
The mystery was explained seconds later as a low flying Harrier hurtled
over their heads.
The boys in blue, upset at the damage to their radar gun, put in a
complaint to the RAF,
but were somewhat chastened when the RAF pointed out that the damage
might well
have been more severe. The Harrier's target-seeker had locked on to
the'enemy' radar and
triggered an automatic retaliatory air-to-surface missile attack.
Luckily(?) the Harrier was
operating unarmed.
Gee Officer, sorry about your patrol car........

~I have the right to be picked up by a man in uniform.
Excuses?
A police officer pulls over this guy who's been weaving
in and out of the lanes. He goes up to the guy's window
and says, "Sir, I need you to blow into this breath-a-
lyzer tube."
The man says, "Sorry, officer, I can't do that. I am an
asthmatic. If I do that, I'll have a really bad asthma
attack."
"Okay, fine. I need you to come down to the station to
give a blood sample."
"I can't do that either. I am a hemophiliac. If I do
that, I'll bleed to death."
"Well, then, we need a urine sample."
"I'm sorry, officer, I can't do that either. I am also
a diabetic. If I do that, I'll get really low blood
sugar."
"All right, then I need you to come out here and walk
this white line."
"I can't do that, officer."
"Why not?"
"Because I'm drunk."
