Reminds me of something stupid I said to a cop when I was young and got pulled over for speeding. He asked me "Do you know why I stopped you?" and Mouth here goes, "No........I thought YOU did!"
Well, it *was* a dumb question, but cops do NOT appreciate smart-a$$ kids, and this one proceeded to write me up not only for speeding, but for a license plate light that was out, a busted taillight, and half a dozen other petty charges. Most of 'em ended up being thrown out of court later, but he made his point. I never smarted off to a cop again.:imbar
Here's one that happened to a friend once (true story). She got pulled over for going to fast. Officer walks up to her car, she rolls down the window, and the cop says, "pardon me mam, but do you know why I stopped you?" She looks at him in a flirtatious manner and says, "love at first sight?" Took the officer a few minutes to put that one together, then burst out laughing. Let her off with just a warning. Good thing for her he had a good sense of humor.
Once, when I was still a teen, my mom and I went to a McDonald's for breakfast one day. They had quite a few lines and we happened to notice a cop standing in the line next to ours. My mother blurts out just about loud enough for the whole place to hear, "gee, I thought they just ate doughnuts". Should have seen the look he gave her while several people around us were snickering.

NEVER SAY TO A COP
1. I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer. (OK in Texas)
2. Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in.
3.Aren't you the guy from the Village People?
4. Hey, you must've been doin' about 125 mph to keep up with me. Good job!
5. Are You Andy or Barney?
6. I thought you had to be in relatively good physical condition to be a police officer.
7. You're not gonna check the trunk, are you?
8. I pay your salary!
9. Gee, Officer! That's terrific. The last officer only gave me a warning, too!
10. Do you know why you pulled me over? Okay, just so one of us does.
11. I was trying to keep up with traffic. Yes, I know there are no other
cars around. That's how far ahead of me they are.
12. When the Officer says "Gee Son....Your eyes look red, have you been
drinking?" You probably shouldn't respond with,"Gee Officer your eyeslook glazed, have you been eating doughnuts?"
Enjoy!
