A London lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a Glasgow copper. He thinks that he is smarter than the cop because he is a lawyer from London and is certain that he's had a better education than any Jock cop.
He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the Glasgow cops expense!!
Copper says: "Licence and registration, please."
Lawyer says: "What for?"
Copper: "Ye didnae come tae a complete stop at the stop sign."
Lawyer: "I slowed down, and no one was coming."
Cop: "Ye still didnae come tae a complete stop. Licence and registration, please."
Lawyer: "What's the difference?"
Cop: "The difference is, ye huv tae come tae a complete stop, that's the law, Licence and registration, please!"
Lawyer: "If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I'll give you my licence and registration, and you give me a ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me a ticket."
Cop says: "OK, soonds fair, exit your vehicle please sir."
The Lawyer exits his vehicle. The Glasgow cop takes out his baton and starts beating the lawyer...
"Now, dae ye want me tae stop, or just slow doon sir?"
