A Massachusetts State Trooper sees a car
Puttering along the interstate highway at 38 MPH,
So he turns on his lights and pulls them over.
There are four old ladies ~
Two in the front seat and two in the back ~
And except for the driver,
Eyes wide and faces white as ghosts.
The three sat silently, staring straight ahead.
The driver, obviously confused, says to him,
“Officer, I don't understand,
I was doing exactly the speed limit: 38 MPH!
What seems to be the problem?'
The trooper, trying to contain a chuckle,
Explains to her that "38" is the route number,
Not the speed limit.
The 83-year-old woman sheepishly grinned
And thanked him for pointing out her error.
“But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask:
Is everyone in this car ok?
The other ladies seem awfully shaken
And they haven't muttered
A single peep this whole time."
"Oh, they'll be okay in a minute,” says the driver.
“We just got off of Route 128."
