A lawyer on a motorcycle runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a Local Police officer. He thinks that he is smarter than the cop because he is a lawyer from Osgoode Hall and is certain that he has a better education than any cop from Wawa, Ontario. He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the Officer's expense.
Officer says," License and registration, please."
Lawyer says, "What for?"
Officer says, " You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign."
Lawyer says, "I slowed down, and no one was coming."
Officer says, "You still didn't come to a complete stop. License and registration, please."
Lawyer says, "What's the difference?"
Officer says, "The difference is, you have to come to a complete stop, that's the law. License and registration, please!"
Lawyer says, "If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I'll give you my license and registration; and you give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket."
Officer says, "Sounds fair. Park and Climb off your vehicle, sir."
At this point, the Officer takes out his nightstick and starts beating the ever-loving s--t out of the lawyer and says, "Do you want me to stop, or just slow down?"
