English conversation between a boy and a Traffic Policeman…
Policeman: Hello. Stop. Can’t you see? It’s a red light.
Boy: I’m sorry, sir. I did not notice.
Policeman: Everyone makes the same excuse when caught.
Boy: Nothing as such ,sir. I am sorry. Actually, I am going to SBI. It's quarter to 2. They have a lunch break from 2 to 3. I thought I might have to waste a complete 1 hour if I didn’t reach before 2.
Policeman: Why didn’t you leave home early then?
Boy: You are right sir.
Policeman: If you hurt someone due to being in a hurry, it could be more troublesome for you.
Boy: That’s true!
Policeman: I’m sorry but I will have to issue a challan for Rs. 300.
Boy: But sir, it's not fair. You stopped me before I could jump the red light.
Policeman: What do you mean! We let people commit crime and then we punish them?
Boy: I didn’t mean that sir. But, please sir I am a student. My father has given me only Rs. 100/- for pocket money today. Please try to understand.
Policeman: I’m sorry. You need to be punished so as to encourage you not to repeat it.
Boy: But sir…
Policeman: Do you want me to talk to your dad?
Boy: Ok,I’m sorry. don’t issue me a challan, just take Rs. 100/-
Policeman: Not at all! Do I seize your vehicle?
Boy: No sir. Here is the money.
Policeman: Take this challan. It’s valid for the whole day ; but it doesn’t mean you breach the rules again. Okay?
Boy: Ok sir, I’ll never let this happen again.
Policeman: I hope so.
