The Police IIEnzyme asks: Have you ever been arrested? Been thrown down the stairs by the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad, with hi-LAR-ious consequences? Or maybe you're a member of the police force with chortlesome anecdotes about particularly stupid people you've encountered.
Do tell.

Nevada's finestFew months ago I was in Vegas, just hired a car and was driving down Flamingo Road when I hit another car. Entirely my fault, we pulled into a car park to wait for the cops. The guy I hit was pretty relaxed about the whole thing, mistakes happen, that's what insurance is for. When the cops turn up, one took my version of the story, one took the other guys and then took his details before letting him on his way, then started taking mine. The cop who was giving me th ticket started taking my details from my New Zealand driving licence. He was entering them into his little computer when he looked up all confused and asked "is New Zealand a country?" His partner looked stunned and sarcastically replied "its in Germany" (an odd answer, but off the cuff so quite good). Cop number one shrugged and carried on. When he gave me my ticket my address was printed as
New Zealand
Germany.
I didn't bother paying it.

What was the fine for?Why did you call the cops?
Surely you just swap in-sewer-ants and go?

the police have to be called to the scene of an accident. The ticket was for 'Dangerous Lane Change'. No idea how much it would've been. If they want to send me the ticket to my German address I'll happily pay it. And the police have to be called to the scene of an accident.Still got the ticket he gave me. One of my favourite souvenirs
