> >Craig drove his brand new BMW Z3 convertible out of the car
salesroom.

>Taking off down the motorway, he floored it to 120kph,
enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left.
'Amazing!' he thought as he flew down the road,
enjoying pushing the pedal to the metal even more.

Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a police car behind him, blue lights flashing and siren
blaring.

'I can get away from him - no problem!' thought Craig as he floored it to 130kph, then 140, then 150kph.
Suddenly, he thought, 'What on earth am I doing? I'm too honest for this
nonsense!'

So he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the police car to
catch up with him.

Pulling in behind him, the police officer walked up to the driver's
side of the BMW, looked at his watch and said, 'Sir, my
shift ends in 10 minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking off for the
weekend. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never
heard before, I'll let you go.'

Craig looked very seriously at the policeman, and replied,
'Years ago, my wife ran off with a policeman. I thought you were
bringing her back.'

'Have a good day, sir,' said the policeman.
