"Uh, yeah.....uhhhh....I'm, uhhhhh (OK right here I'm already pissed) behind a uhhhhhhhh big truck. You know, like a uhhhhhh 18 wheeler?"
"mmm hmmm."
"It's uhhhh, a FedEx truck."
"mmm hmmm. "
"And uhhhhhh it's headed East on I-10 uhhhhh you know, right before the bridge? And it's got an expired tag."
"mmm hmmm......sir, what's wrong with this truck?"
"I just told you, it's got a expired tag."
"An expired tag."
"Yeah"
"Is it driving erratically or otherwise being unsafe?"
"Nope...but I uhhhhh did notice that his rear door is uhhhhhh being held down by a bungee cord."
"mmm hmmm. Sir, you dialed 9-1-1 to report an expired tag on a vehicle that's otherwise obeying the law?"
"Yeah. It's been out of date since December 2005, you know? I mean, uhhhhhh, it's FedEx, man. They can afford a tag, you know?"
"mmm hmmm.....stay on the line for the Florida Highway Patrol."
God, I love my job. If there were no stupid people, there would be no smart people, we'd all be exactly the same. It's all relative. Believe it or not, we need these dumbasses.
