While traveling in unfamiliar territory, a lawyer ran a stop sign and got pulled over by a small town sheriff.
The lawyer thinks for a minute and decides that he can talk his way out of a ticket. After all, he assumes that he must be much better educated than the southern sheriff.
The sheriff asks for license and registration. The lawyer asks, "What for?" The sheriff responds, "You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign."
The lawyer says, "I slowed down and no one was coming." You still didn't come to a complete stop,
license and registration please, said the sheriff impatiently.
The lawyer says, "If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I'll give you my license and registration and you can give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket."
The sheriff says, "That sounds fair, please exit your vehicle."
The lawyer steps out of his car and the sheriff starts beating him with his nightstick.
The sheriff said, "Do you want me to stop or just slow down?"
The lawyer yelled out, please stop. He then quipped that they never taught him anything like that at Harvard Law School. The sheriff said , you should have gone to Yale, like me.
