DRIVER:	Here it is.
POLICE:	Why didn't you stop when we first signalled?
DRIVER:	Did you signal more than once, then?
POLICE:	What do you think? Of course we did. Only you didn't see us because you were speeding. That's why.
DRIVER:	Was I? I'm sorry about that. What's the speed limit on this road?
POLICE:	Don't you know? The speed limit is 60 kph on this street.
DRIVER:	Was I doing more than that, then?
POLICE:	What do you think? Of course you were. You were doing more than 100 kph.
DRIVER:	Was I? I'm sorry about that.
POLICE:	I'm afraid I shall have to charge you with an offence under the Road Traffic Act and I’m going to take your driver’s license.
DRIVER:	Will I have to pay a fine? Will I have my licence endorsed? I haven’t any endorsements till now.
POLICE:	That's for the Court to decide. You can get your driver’s license in the police- station of the State Autoinspection at the following address: Walton street, 126. And now I must draw up a statement of the offence.
