Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers,
a State Trooper sees a car puttering along at 22 mph. He thinks to
himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!" So he turns
on his lights and pulls the driver over.

Approaching the car, he notices that there are five elderly ladies in the
car, wide-eyed and white as ghosts. The driver, obviously confused
says to him, "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing the speed limit!
What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am," the officer replies, "you weren't speeding, but you should
know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to
other drivers."

"Slower than the speed limit? No sir, I was doing the speed limit
exactly twenty-two miles an hour!" the old woman says a bit proudly.

The State Trooper, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that 22
was the route number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the woman
grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error.

"But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask are the other ladies OK?
These women seem awfully shaken and they haven't muttered a single peep
this whole time," the officer asks.

"Oh, they'll probably be fine in a minute, officer. We just got off Route 119."
