A Terre Haute, IN, policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but
wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem - a 12-year-old boy was
standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which read "RADAR TRAP
AHEAD." The officer then found a young accomplice down the road with a sign
reading "TIPS" and a bucket full of money.
(And we used to just sell lemonade!)
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated
radar post in Indianapolis, IN. A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being
cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40. The police responded
with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
A young woman was pulled over for speeding. As an Indiana State Trooper
walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said, "I bet
you are going to sell me a ticket to the Indiana State Police Ball." He
replied, "Indiana State Police don't have balls." There was a moment of
silence while she smiled, and he realized what he'd just said. He then
closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left. She was laughing too
hard to start her car.
