    36 excuses for not wearing a seat belt

    Berlingske Tidende has a story on how police often have a good laugh when they pull people over for not wearing a seat belt. They cite www.sikkertrafik.dk as their source, and while not every excuse or comment included is all that funny, I've translated them all anyway.

    - It's not my car!

    - But.. I just got a parking ticket.

    - That's beacuse I'm exempt from wearing a crash helmet.

    - It's because I'm too chubby.

    - No way I'm getting a ticket for that, I got one last week for the same thing, and I didn't even pay that one yet.

    - I'm not usually the one who's driving!

    - My wife is about to give birth. (Man alone in the car)

    - Who.. me?

    - Darn it. And I forgot my driver's license too.

    - It's because it's so tight.. and I have to pee.

    - My aunt was just admitted to hospital!

    - No, I'll turn 79 next time, so I'm not sure there's much use to it.

    - WHERE does it say so?

    - But.. I live right over there.

    - Really? I had it on when I left home.

    - I'm terribly claustrophobic.

    - Goddammit! That's the second time this month.

    - My wife turned me in, right?

    - My doctor won't let me.

    - There wasn't time for it.

    - I'm from a time when cars didn't have seat belts. (Older gentleman)

    - But.. that's because the hormones are racing around inside of me.

    - There's a nickel that got stuck in the seat belt lock.

    - It's because the phone just rang...

    - I was just on my way home from the convenience store.

    - It's not working.

    - I don't have a driver's licence, and you know it's not my car.

    - What are you doing tonight...?

    - Come on, you can't get a ticket for that!?

    - There are no seat belts in my car.

    - My uncle is pregnant, I don't have to wear one.

    - I couldn't be bothered. It's too tight.

    - I know your boss.

    - Are you in the same precinct as Simon?

    And finally, the clincher..:

    - But.. my t!ts are too big..

    I almost hope there's a translation error in that one...

        Maybe the cop has to give a physical examination to find out .

          "- There's a nickel that got stuck in the seat belt lock."

          that actually happened to me once.

          so I just duct-taped myself to the seat instead

            No, this case has to go to court so we can weigh the evidence.

                  Maybe it after all was a good thing that we lost you

                  With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

                      This is my favourite. He's surrendered to the facts, but you can just picture how she's been bugging him for years and years about it.
