~Driving To Slow~(Plus: Today in History, Word for the Day, Today’s Horoscope, Maxine, and 6 differences.)

Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer 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 old ladies - two in front and three in the back.
The driver, obviously confused, said to him, "Officer, don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am," the officer replied, "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 said a bit proudly.

The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explained 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... Is everyone in this
car okay? These women seem awfully shaken and they haven't
muttered a single peep this whole time," the officer asked.

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