A motorcycle police officer stops a driver for shooting through a red
light. The driver is a real bastard, steps out of his car and comes
striding toward the officer, demanding to know why he is being
harassed by the Gestapo!
So the officer calmly tells him of the red light violation. The
motorist instantly goes on a tirade, questioning the officer's
ancestry, sexual orientation, etc. in rather explicit offensive terms.
The tirade goes on without the officer saying anything.
When the officer finishes writing the ticket he puts an "AH" in the
lower right corner of the narrative portion of the ticket. He then
hands it to the 'violator' for his signature. The bloke signs the
ticket angrily, and when presented with his copy points to the "AH"
and demands to know what it stands for.
The officer says, "That's so when we go to court, I'll remember that
you're an Ass Hole!"
Two months later they're in court. The 'violator' has a bad driving
record with a high number of points and is in danger of losing his
license, so he hired a big gun lawyer to represent him.
On the stand the officer testifies to seeing the man run through the red light.
Under cross examination the defense attorney asks; "Officer is this a
reasonable facsimile of the ticket that you issued to my client?"
Officer responds, "Yes, sir, that is the defendant's copy, his
signature and mine, same number at the top."
Lawyer: "Officer, is there any particular marking or notation on this
ticket you don't normally make?"
"Yes, sir, in the lower right corner of the narrative there is an "AH"
underlined."
"What does the "AH" stand for, officer?"
"Aggressive and Hostile, Sir."
"Aggressive and Hostile?"
"Yes, Sir.
"Officer, are you sure it doesn't stand for Ass Hole?"
"Well, sir, you know your client better than I do."

Me too. For some strange reason I wrote far more citations to AH's than to people who treated me in a civil manner.
