A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was speeding down Main Street.

But officer, the man began, "I can explain."

Just be quiet, snapped the officer. "I'm going to let you cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back."

But, officer, I just wanted to say...

And I said to keep quiet! You're going to jail!

Don't count on it, answered the fellow in the cell . "I'm the groom."

笑話文化解讀

美國是世界上擁有汽車最多的國家，也是汽車法規(guī)最嚴(yán)苛的國家之一。在美國，高速公路的限速一般在60英里至75英里之間，多數(shù)州規(guī)定不能超過100英里。大多數(shù)州對(duì)第一次超速違章的司機(jī)會(huì)采取教育為主的方法。但如果再次違反交通規(guī)則，就逃不過懲罰。據(jù)美國國家公路交通安全管理局的統(tǒng)計(jì)，全美國對(duì)超速的平均罰金是200美元。在開車超速罰單最貴的10個(gè)州中，最高額的罰單可超過500美元，北卡羅來納州和喬治亞州的法官還有權(quán)增加入獄處罰。
