GOOD
A Bend , Oregon 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 also found the boy had an accomplice who was down the road with a sign reading 'TIPS' and a bucket full of money. (And we used to just sell lemonade!)
BETTER
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in Pendleton , Oregon . 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.
BEST
A young woman was pulled over for speeding. An Oregon 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 State Trooper's Ball."
He replied , “Oregon State Troopers don't have balls."
There was a moment of silence. He then closed his book , tipped his hat , got back in his patrol car and left..
