When a man was being tailgated by a stressed out woman on a
busy boulevard, the traffic light suddenly turned to yellow just in front of
him. He did the right thing and stopped, even though he could have beaten the
red light by accelerating through the intersection. The tailgating woman hit
the roof and the horn, screaming in frustration as she missed her chance to get
through the intersection. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her
window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer who ordered
her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where
she was searched, finger printed, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.
After several hours, a policeman opened the cell door, and escorted
her back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her
personal effects. He said, “I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled
up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in
front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. Then I noticed the ‘Choose Life’
license plate, the ‘What Would Jesus Do?’ bumper sticker, the ‘Follow Me to
Sunday-School’ bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on
the trunk. Naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car.”
