Traffic Police - You win some, lose some
A traffic police patrol officer pulls over a driver for speeding and has the following exchange:

Officer: May I see your driving licence ?

Driver: I don't have one. I'm disqualified for drinking and driving.

Officer: May I see the registration documents for this vehicle?

Driver: It's not my car. I stole it.

Officer: The car is stolen?

Driver: That's right. But come to think of it, I think I saw the registration documents in the glove box when I was putting my gun in there.

Officer: There's a gun in the glove box?

Driver: Yes sir. That's where I put it after I shot and killed the woman who owns this car and stuffed her in the boot.

Officer: There's a BODY in the boot ?

Driver: Yes, sir.

Hearing this, the officer immediately called his sergeant. The car was quickly surrounded by police, and the sergeant approached the driver to handle the tense situation:

Sergeant: Sir, can I see your licence ?

Driver: Sure. Here it is.

It was valid.

Sergeant: Who's car is this ?

Driver: It's mine, officer. Here's the registration.

Sergeant: Could you slowly open your glove box so I can see if there's a gun in it?

Driver: Yes, sir, but there's no gun in it.

Sure enough, there was nothing in the glove box.

Captain: Would you mind opening your boot ? I was told you said there's a body in it.

Driver: No problem.

Boot is opened; no body.

Sergeant I don't understand it. The officer who stopped you said you told him you didn't have a licence, stole the car, had a gun in the glove box, and that there was a dead body in the boot.

Driver: HA! Oh boy, that's a good one. I'll bet he told you I was speeding too !
