As he walked up to old lady’s car he noticed there were 3 other elderly folks looking very frightened and rigid.
He leaned down to the old lady’s window and noticed she was as calm as could be.
“Do you know why I pulled you over, Ma’am? ”
“No, I do not,” she replied sweetly.
“You were going 10mph on the highway that’s a serious hazard for other drivers. ”
The officer couldn’t help but glance at the three terrified passengers. The little old lady pointed at the sign nearby.
“Isn’t the speed limit 10? ”
The officer looked at the sign and laughed.
“ Ma’am, that’s the sign telling you which highway you’re on Interstate 10. ”
The little old lady burst out in a fit of giggles,
“Oh, I’m sorry! ”
The officer decided it was an honest mistake and was going to let her go. But curiosity got the better of him.
“Can I ask … “Can I ask why your passengers are so scared? ”
The little old lady laughed again.
“Probably because I just got off Interstate 175.”
