You Just can't Fix Stupid!

I was driving, when I saw the flash of a traffic camera.
I figured that my picture had been taken for exceeding
the speed limit even though I knew I was not speeding.
Just to be sure, I went around the block and passed the
same spot, driving even more slowly, but again the camera flashed.
Now I began to think, this is quite funny, so I drove even
slower as I passed the area once more, but the traffic camera again flashed.

I tried a fourth and fifth time with the same results and
was now laughing as I rolled past at a snail's pace.
Two weeks later, I got five tickets in the mail for driving without a seat belt.

You know, you just can't fix stupid!

that may sound very funny but that is exactly what happened to my brother-in-law many years ago but he actually stopped and asked why the camera had flashed him and he was told that he didn't have a seat-belt on

Lol how dum con you get Hahaha
 
A belt joke, but for a change it's not a below the belt joke which get a bit offensive with their crude humour.
It always amuses me that people would read or see the crude before and then comment detrimentally on it, I wonder what that says about their minds. A joke like the limerick packs laughs anatomical Into space that is quite economical. But the good ones I've seen So seldom are clean - And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

This is absolutely TRUE ... In mid-February 2003, I was driving from Parklands Qld into Nambour (Southerly direction).. When suddenly I noticed a Flash of Light. as I was passing thruough the 40K area in front of the Nambour High School. Thinking I had been hit for doing over 40Kph .. I was thinking here comes a speeding ticket . Then, as I continued on my way I noticed a Thunderstorm building up in the direction of the sugar mill (south-westerly direction) AND ANOTHER FLASH OF LIGHT... realizing that it was lightning that seemed like I was flashed by a speed camera.. I thought that was just so lucky, as I was not paying attention to driving into town.
Now, at that time, I was fighting off bladder cancer and I would be recalled to the Nambour hospital for a procedure to check for and then another to remove any tumour that were found. When I would go into hospital, the nurses knew me well and I would tell them my best Joke of the month or week.
On this occasion, I hadn't thought about a joke until I was called to attend a day surgery. So I thought about the flash of lightning and from there I created the almost accurate joke above.. the variations obviously were .. I would go around the block (Which was impossible) and again get flashed then as I needed evidence I would go around again but this time I would use my mobile phone to take a video of the flashing and speedo while travelling at 30Kph and then I waited for the mail fines to arrive .. 2 weeks later and 3 fines arrived 3 for failing to wear a seat belt and ONE for using a mobile phone while driving. I told this to the Nambour Nurses and they laughed so much it when around the entire ward. NOW HERE IT IS TODAY... I ask Skipton was He/she a nurse at the Nambour Hospital in 2003? ,,, The whole story was totally fabricated from that one flash of lightning (no speed camera, at that time had ever booked a person for not wearing a seat belt or using a mobile phone while driving) Those two camera fines have evolved from cameras install ABOVE the driver in the past couple of years and just maybe the odd seat belt issue from roadside cameras in the last 3 years. My Story was a total lie but a very funny story, as many jokes are.
I do have quite a number of absolutely funny jokes that evolved from past experiences or some incident that may have occurred partially prompting a good laugh.
