A lawyer goes through a stop sign and is seen and pulled over by a Police car.
The lawyer thinks he is smarter than a humble beat copper and decides he have some fun at the cops expense.
The cops asks for his driving licence and the lawyer replies
"What for?"
The cop says "You failed to come to a complete stop at that stop sign there"
The lawyer replies "I slowed down and nothing was coming"
The cop says "You didn't come to a complete stop, do you have your driving licence?"
The lawyer replies "Whats the difference?"
The cop says "The law states you have to come to a complete stop at a stop sign"
The lawyer replies "If you can show me the difference between stop and slow down I'll give you my licence. If you can't you won't give me a ticket, is that fair?"

The cop thinks about this and says "That does sound fair, please step out of the vehicle sir"
The lawyer steps out and as he does this the cop pulls out his baton and starts to beat the living daylights out of him and says "Now sir, would you like me to stop or slow down?"
