    I've gotten the border guys a couple of times.

    Coming back with an empty flatbed into Canada after delivering in Buffalo;

    Hand the officer my ID, no paperwork required empty.
    CBSA: what are you hauling?
    Me: Potholes for the QEW.
    CBSA: *confused look, opens the shade so they can see the trailer better* Starts to laugh and hands me back my ID and tells me to have a good day.

    Also got them with "sailboat fuel", and "Doughnut centers".
     
    Injun, Rotten, bulldozerbert and 2 others Thank this.

    Years ago in a land far far away...I was in B.C. coming around a corner,getting my speed up,because I know there is a little bit of a down hill,then a long uphill grade.After I get around the corner & a RCMP officer walks out waving his arms wanting me to stop in the area of his radar trap. I did stop,but did it about 6 truck lengths further ahead. He comes JOGGING up to my truck.
    He Says(panting cause he's out of breath) :Why didn't you stop back there where I was?
    I said(straight faced): Because I was going too fast, isn't that why you're stopping me?

    I knew it, someone was responsible for the crappy QEW. :biggrin_25522:

    I will think of Flying Finn now every time I run that road.

    Going through an ag check in Florida. I told the trooper I had a load of popcorn. He waved me on saying "don't catch on fire!"

    That gave me the funniest mental picture.
     
    TruckerDragon, Rotten and Injun Thank this.

    "Hey the biker and the construction guy are looking for you, too. They're in that truck I just passed, not this one."

    Arkansas, Northbound on US 71 VIA CB Radio:

    Cop: *sing-songy voice* Heeeeeey, Swiiiiift...Whatcha dooooin, Baby Doll?

    Me: sassy, coquettish*who's that talkin to me?
    (no other vehicles around except that bear sitting in the middle)

    Cop: Well, I don't know....

    Me: Wouldn't be that bear sittin back yonder, would it?

    Cop: *silence*.........

    Sometimes it's just fun to call 'em on their smart***ery regardless of who they are.

    This is my brothers story.

    He was hauling a load of generic adult diapers out of Presto in Eau Claire, WI. He got pulled over or was at a DOT station. The Officer asked what he was hauling. My brother repsonds, "DEPENDS" The officer gets all pissy about him being a ####y smart ###.
