Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a police officer saw a car driving along at 22 miles per hour.
He thought to himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a 1!" So he turned on his lights and pulled the driver over.
Getting closer to the car, he noticed that there were 2 old ladies, two in the front seat and three in the back wide eyed and pale faced.
The driver, who knew 3 about what happened, said to him, "Officer, I don't understand. I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the 4?"
"Ma'am," the officer replied, "you weren't speeding, but you should know that driving 5 than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers. The same as a speeder."
"No, sir. I was doing the speed limit—exactly twenty-two miles an hour!'' The old woman said in a 6 voice. The officer, almost unable to control his chuckle, explained to her that "22" was the route 7, not the speed limit.
A bit embarrassed, the woman smiled widely and thanked the officer for 8 her misunderstanding.
"But 9 I let you go, ma'am, I have to ask... Is everyone in this car OK? These women seem to be 10 badly and they haven't made a single sound this whole time," the officer asked.
"Oh, they'll be all right in a minute. We just got off Route 119."
