Published Jan 01, 1900
As he was driving home from work, a man in a rural community was stopped by a local police officer. The motorist, informed that he had failed to come to a full stop at a stop sign, was handed a ticket.
"Don't I get a warning?" he protested.
The officer replied, "Sure. Here's your warning: 'If you don't come to a complete stop next time, I'll give you another ticket.' "
