A Glasgow senior citizen drove his brand new BMW
convertible out of the car salesroom. Taking off down the
motorway, he floored it to 100mph, enjoying the wind
blowing through what little hair he had left.
'Amazing!' he thought as he flew along the M8,
enjoying pushing the pedal to the metal even more. Looking
in his rear view mirror, he saw a police car behind him,
blue lights flashing and siren blaring.
'I can get away from him - no problem!' thought
the elderly nutcase as he floored it to 120mph, then
130mph, then 140mph.
Suddenly, he thought, 'What on earth am I doing?
I'm too old for this nonsense!' So he pulled over
to the side of the road and waited 10 minutes for the
police car to catch up with him.
Pulling in behind him, the police officer walked up to
the driver's side of the BMW, looked at his watch and
said, 'Sir, my shift ends in 10 minutes. Today is
Friday and I'm taking off for the weekend. If you can
give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never
heard before, I'll let you go'
The man looked very seriously at the policeman, and
replied, 'Years ago, my wife ran off with a policeman.
I thought you were bringing her back.'
'Have a good day, Sir,' said the policeman.
