Loading ...GOOD: Wexford: Police Traffic Corps had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but weren’t getting many. Then they discovered the problem – a
12-year-old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which read ‘SPEED TRAP AHEAD’. The police also found the boy had an accomplice
who was down the road with a sign reading ‘TIPS’ and a bucket full of money.
BETTER: A motorist was mailed a photo of his car speeding through an automated speed check on the N4. A €80 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police a photo of €80. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
BEST: A Young woman was pulled over for speeding. A Traffic Corps policeman walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book. She said, ‘I
bet you are going to sell me a ticket to the Police Traffic Department Ball.’
He
replied, ‘The Police Traffic Department don’t have balls…..’
There was a moment of silence. He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left.
