Why Did The Woman Cross The Road?

To get a ticket apparently.

Women fined for crossing the road

AN 82-year-old woman has been given a $140 fine for walking too slowly.
Mayvis Coyle was shuffling across a busy LA road with her cane, but could not make it to the other side before the light turned red.
A motorcycle policeman approached her and issued her with a fine.
According to news.com.au she said: "I think it's completely outrageous. He treated me like a six-year-old."
A spokesman for Los Angeles police said the force were forced to crack down on people who improperly cross streets in an attempt to prevent accidents.

OK, so she gets a ticket and this woman does not.




Is it just me?

And that number would be a big upright one?
