Friend! Part Trois

What can I say, when it rains it pours:

So I got pulled over for the 3rd time for my lack of inspection today. However, this time I’m within the 15 day rejection window. I was stopped by a motorcycle cop on I-64 on my  way back into work (Stu your Bav Auto parts are at the house by the way). The trooper pulls me over on an uphill highway exit:

Cop: Do you know why I pulled you over
The General: Inspection
Cop: Yes, why isn’t you car inspected?
The General: It was, but it was rejected
Cop: Where is your rejection sticker?
The General: hands Cop rejection sticker
Cop: Why isn’t this on your windshield
The General: It fell off. I am within the 15 day window
Cop looks at sticker
Cop: It says you were rejected for brakes. Do you think its safe
to drive a car without good functioning brakes?
The General: Officer my brakes are fine, it failed for a loose drivers side parking brake cable.
Cop: So your parking brake doesn’t work?
The General: No it does, there is one on each side of the car, one side is loose that’s all. The other side works great.
Cop: So your parking brake isn’t functioning…
The General: Sir, with all due respect if my parking brake wasn’t functioning my car would have rolled down this hill and over your motorcycle by now.
Cop: (chuckles) You know you might have a point there. Please get your car inspected soon. Have a nice day.
