A lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a sheriff's deputy in
Kentucky. He thinks that he is smarter than the deputy because he is a
lawyer from New York and is certain that he has a better education then
any cop from Kentucky so he decides to prove this to himself and have
some fun at the Kentucky deputy's expense!!

The Deputy says," License and registration, please."

The Lawyer asks, "What for?"

The Deputy says, "You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign."

The Lawyer says, "I slowed down, and no one was coming."

The Deputy says, "You still didn't come to a complete stop. License and
registration, please."

The Lawyer says, "What's the difference?"

The Deputy says, "The difference is, you have to come to complete stop,
that's the law. License and registration, please!"

The 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."

Deputy says, "Sounds fair. Exit your vehicle, sir."

The deputy takes out his nightstick and starts beating the ever-loving
crap out of the lawyer and says, "Do you want me to stop, or just slow
down?"
