There is a small town called Addeston, Ohio. It is well known for being a speed trap. Outside the town, it is 40 MPH and then it drops to 15 MPH when you hit the town limit.
One day, my uncle Harry was going to work and got pull over. He refused to sign the ticket. Now, the cop threatened him and said you will sign it or I will arrest you
.
Unfortunately for him, my uncle was a very smart man and replied “Go ahead. If you arrest me, you need to take me to the Hamilton County jail. I know for a fact that it cost $300/day to house a prisoner. Your town will have to foot the bill. I will wait a week and then admit to speeding in court and pay your $25 fine”.
The cop let him go.
