Transportation, Cars and Pranks: Old school prank

Old school prank

By Anonymous - 09/07/2009 01:34 - United States

Today, my cousin told me that the stop signs outlined with a white line were optional. Later, a cop pulled me over, when I asked why he said, "You ran that stop sign back there." I explained what my cousin had told me and he looked at me funny and replied, "All stop signs have a white outline." FML

Dad jokes

Today, my dad was teaching me how to drive. He told me that stop signs with white outlines are "optional." I ran through the next one I saw and got pulled over by a cop. My dad is making me pay the ticket for being "that stupid." Thanks dad. FML

Today, a cop pulled me over because there was a sign hidden behind a tree that said "No left turn". As I was getting my ticket, I watched as three cars turned left. The cop saw them, laughed, and said, "I guess you're the unlucky one." FML

STOP!

Today, I accidentally ran a stop sign. It wouldn't have been so bad if the stop sign hadn't been in a traffic cop's hands. FML

Concerning

Today, a cop pulled me over and asked if I knew why. I panicked and blurted out, "Because I just killed someone?" He just stared at me in disbelief and said, "No, because your taillight's out. Should I be concerned?" FML

Today, I was driving home from work when I saw a cop come up behind me. Nervous about my expired license, I kept checking in my rear view mirror. In turn since I wasn't paying attention, I ran a stop sign. Needless to say the cop pulled me over and gave me 2 tickets. FML

Today, I was pulled over. The cop stated that he "couldn't see" me because I had "blended in with the dark car background", and that it looked like no one was driving. I was literally pulled over for being black. FML

One stop cop shop

Today, I learned that making an illegal U-turn right after you see a cop doing one will not stop said cop from ticketing you. FML

High performance, high risk quipping

By Anonymous - 29/04/2024 08:00 - United Kingdom

Today, a police officer pulled me over while I was riding my high performance motorbike. He asked if I knew why he'd pulled me over. It was too tempting to resist at the time, but in hindsight telling him ,“Because I let you?” was not the best idea I’ve ever had. Cops have no sense of humour. FML

Today, I was stopped by a cop while walking down the street. He was slowly trailing me before pulling along side of me and asking how my night was going. He then said, "You know I can't let you do this. Know those new jeans you bought? The sticker is still on the leg" and drove off. FML

Today, I was pulled over for going the wrong way on a closed highway. The construction signs pointed me in that direction, and the cop agreed that they should be fixed. Did it stop him from giving me a ticket anyway? Nope. FML

You deserved getting pulled over for actually believing that BS. Why would they put a traffic sign up if you didn't have to obey it? Sounds a bit stupid to me.

A friend tried pulling this joke on me 20 years ago. I can't believe people still fall for this. Hope the cop just laughed and didn't ticket you.

No it doesn't... but if you say "gopher" very slowly it does. And besides, gullible's not even a word any more. Did you hear that they removed it from the dictionary?

Hahaha, I fell for the gopher one. Wowwww I'm lame :). Oh, and by the way, OP, do the world a favor and jump off a cliff. I have never thought YDI so much as this RETARDED fml. Seriously, not only is that the gullible act of a COMPLETE dumbass the age of 2, you could have seriously hurt someone.

Uh... can anyone say duh? If the sign says stop, the sign says stop. THe only reason you shouldn't heed what a street sign says is if it says to get out of your car, strip naked, and do the Dirty dance on top of it. Sorry, but you deserved it for being a dumbass.
