Deputy Devereaux was doing a shift on traffic duty. A primer red pickup truck with a burnt out taillight went by the deputy. When Deputy Devereaux pulled the truck over, he asked the redneck driver for his ID. So the redneck showed the deputy his belt buckle.
Later on Deputy Devereaux pulled over a redneck for speeding. Deputy Devereaux asked, "Got and ID?" and the redneck replied, "About what"?
Finally it was getting near the end of Deputy Devereaux's shift. A car slightly exceeding the speed limit went by the hidden Deputy Devereaux and the deputy pulled out on the road to flag down the speeder. Suddenly the car Deputy Devereaux was following started speeding up. Deputy Devereaux hit the accelerator and after about a mile finally got the car he was following to pull over.
After running the wants and warrants on the speeding car, Deputy Devereaux walked up to the vehicle and the driver rolled down the windown. After the usual request for and production of license, registration and proof of insurance a little more involved discussion started:
Deputy: "Sir, I eventually clocked you doing 30 miles over the posted speed limit. But nobody ended up in danger, it's almost the end of my shift and I really don't want to spend the time doing the paperwork. If you can give me a reason for speeding up like you did that I haven't heard before, I'll let you go."
Driver: "Well, Deputy, last week my wife ran off with another deputy sheriff. When you started chasing me I thought you were trying to bring her back."
Deputy: "Get out of here."
