SOME MOTORING JOKES

{Sarcastic Passenger (fed up with friend’s cautious driving): There you are, old man. The board says “Speed limit 8 miles an hour.” Mow you can let her out a bit. Teacher (sternly): This essay on “Our Car” is word for word the same as your brother’s. Small boy: Yes, sir, its the same car. Driving Instructor: Well, do you understand the car now? Beginner: Perfectly. There’s only one thing I should like to ask: Do you put the water and the petrol in the same hole? Brown (who has been courteously offered a lift): I say, you took t-t-that corner a st-s-sixty. Y-you ought to be in a lunatic asylum. Affable stranger: How awfully clever of you to know. This is the second time I’ve escaped in the last six months. Rural Motorist: I want some tyres. Salesman: Balloon tyres? Rural motorist: No, tyres for my motor. She: What a turn you gave me. I thought you were going to say the car wasn’t yours. First Business Man: Does your wife have enough mechanical ability to drive a car? Second business man: No, she merely furnishes the ability. “You have on a different suit from the one you were wearing an hour ago; why did you change attire?” “Yes.” “Yes, what?’ “Yes. I had to change a tyre.” d A Nottingham motorist asked in court: “Why am I now charged with driving to the danger of the public? I have been doing it for 11 years.” It was a long time to wait for public recognition of his prowess, but he has got it at last. “Does your wife turn out a good meal .lien you’re on your camping trips?” “Sure, opens a can just as neatly as if she was in her own kitchen.”
