Rules of the road

A London lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a Glasgow copper. He thinks that he is smarter than the cop because he is a big time lawyer from London and is certain that he has a better education then any Jock cop. He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the cop's expense.

Cop says," License and registration, please."

Lawyer says, "What for?"

"Ye didnae come to a complete stop at the stop sign."

"I slowed down, and no one was coming."

"Ye still didnae come to a complete stop. License and registration, please."

"What's the difference?"

"The difference is, ye huvte come to a complete stop; that's the law. License and registration, please!"

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 give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket."

"Sounds fair. Exit your vehicle, sir."

So the lawyer gets out.

The cop takes out his baton and starts beating the crap out of the lawyer and says, "Dae ye want me to stop, or just slow down?"
