I thought this was hilarious, hopefully others will too.

"Was pulled over last night by a copper who'd followed me for a couple
of miles and breathalysed. Bearing in mind I could barely stand it was
no surprise to find I was massively over the limit.
This was particularly disgraceful as I had the missus and kiddie with me in
the car. I was arrested and read my rights. It was all a very salutary
experience, especially when the copper got shirty because I found the
whole business side-splittingly funny.
His mate, whilst the arrest took place, went and had a good look round the
car, came back and started whispering to the other copper. They are
whispering frantically at each other and neither of them look very pleased.
Copper turns to me and starts accusing me of wasting police time, he calls
me a tw*t.
I point out he's just sworn at a member of the public, in front of an 18
month old child and that I'll report him for conduct unbecoming.
Plods got back in their car and drove off, with the copper who'd had a
look round my
car laughing his head off.
And the moral of the story for the police is........................
Always check whether a car is left or right hand drive before
breathalysing the guy in the right hand seat"
