Speeding in a Chrysler 300C

A guy drove his brand new Chrysler 300C out of the Chrysler saleroom. Taking off down the highway, he floored it to 90 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through his hair.
'Amazing!' he thought as he flew down the interstate, enjoying pushing the pedal to the metal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a police car behind him, red lights flashing and siren blaring.' I can get away from him - no problem!' thought the elderly gent as he floored it to 110 mph, then 120, then 130 mph.

Suddenly, he thought, 'What on earth am I doing? I'm too old for this nonsense!' So he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the police car to catch up with him.

Pulling in behind him, the police officer walked up to the driver's side of the Chrysler 300C, looked at his watch and said, 'Sir, my shift ends in 10 minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking off for the weekend. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go.'

The man looked very seriously at the policeman and replied, 'Years ago, my wife ran off with a policeman. I thought you were bringing her back.'

'Have a good day, Sir,' said the policeman.
